    Calendula (English Marigold, Pot Marigold, Calendula Officinalis L.)

    Calendula (English marigold, pot marigold, Calendula officinalis L.) Nancy W. Callan, Mal P. Westcott, Susan Wall-MacLane, and James B. Miller Western Agricultural Research Center Montana State University Calendula (Calendula officinalis L.) is an annual with bright yellow or orange daisy-like flowers. The flowers are harvested while in full bloom and dried for use as a medicinal or culinary herb. The entire flower heads or the petals alone are used. An industrial oil may be expressed from the seeds and an absolute oil is obtained from the flowers. Laying chickens may be fed orange calendula flowers to give the egg yolks a deep yellow color. Calendula is a fast-growing annual that is easy to cultivate. It may be direct-seeded in the field and begins to flower in about two months. Harvest of calendula is time-consuming because the flowers form over a long period of time and individual flowers mature quickly. Overmature flowers are undesirable in a herbal product. Frequent hand harvest is necessary to obtain the highest quality product, but some mechanization of harvest may be possible for a lower- grade product or for seed for industrial use. Western Agricultural Research Center Two cultivars of calendula, 'Resina' and 'Erfurter Orangefarbige,' were direct-seeded on May 15, 1998, and May 18, 1999, at 5 lb/a in six-row plots 8 ft long, with rows 18" apart and four replications. Final stand of Resina was 3.3 (1998) and 4.6 (1999) plants/ft and of Erfurter Orangefarbige was 5.5 and 3.9 plants/ft. Flower heads were plucked from the plants by hand and air-dried out of direct sunlight.

Among the medicinal plant material that we will use to make the gel for vaginal vaginosis are sage, tea tree oil and calendula. Pot marigold or C. officinalis, calendula comes from the latin word calendae ‘’little calendar’’.

These preparations form the basis of many wound healing materials in the developing world where the plant is prepared as a crude drug or an extract that is applied topically to improve the healing wound. These preparations may have antimicrobial properties and remove the microbes by an antiseptic mechanism and/or they may promote the ability of the wound to repair itself by stimulating cellular growth.”i “There are many reasons why plants area available source of antimicrobial natural products and the most fundamental reason is that they contain intrinsically antimicrobial compounds such as carvacrol form thyme (Thymus vulgaris) which is a monoterpene and is present in the essential oil of this species.”ii Herbal strategies (i.e. phytotherapeutics) to treat infectious diseases includeiii: Minor to moderate acute infections of the respiratory, urinary and gastrointestinal mucosa Minor to moderate systemic infections especially when accompanied by lymphadenopathy Topical bacterial and fungal infections Minor to moderate febrile infections Minor to moderate chronic viral, bacterial and fungal infections Management of refractory cases of chronic viral, bacterial and fungal infections especially accompanied by lowered immune resistance.

SRIVIDHYA1, S. JAYASHREE AGARWAL2 1Assistant Professor of English, National College (Autonomous), Tiruchirappalli 2Assistant Professor of English, Cauvery College for Women, Tiruchirappalli ABSTRACT In this present technologically superfast world, where the click of buttons is changing the way people think, plan and execute their works and live their lives, “virtual reality”, “surrealism”, “hyper reality” are the terms in vogue. They are so commonly used everywhere that they may not seem fanciful any more. However, the excitement in superstitions, magic and mysticism still prevails. India has always caught the imagination of foreigners as the land of hidden secrets – S. JAYASHREE AGARWAL it is viewed as a “hub of cosmic energy” and emerging super power. The secret of Ayurvedas, the variety and depth in art forms like dance and music are equally attractive as Kamasutra and Yoga. The co-existence of various religions, cultures, languages has always been a source of amazement. The festivities, the rituals and the mythological significances keep the attraction alive. Historically significant monuments, the architecture and the cuisine tops the ranking of our country across the globe. In such a context the novel by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, The Mistress of Spices (1997), is a delightful read which bombards the senses and tingles the appetite with its exotic use of spices.

Accepted 9 December 2008 Berberis aristata DC. is critically endangered species of Indian Himalaya due to it’s extensively collection of roots for its Berberine alkaloid. The objective of this research was to explore the possibility of propagating the species vegetatively to maintain its genetic identity and population. Therefore, an experiment was conducted by taking different cutting portions viz., apical, sub-apical and basal which were treated with various IBA concentrations viz., control, 2500, 5000 and 7500 ppm. Results shown that apical cuttings when treated with 5000 ppm IBA concentration performed significantly better in sprouting (85%) and rooting percentage (50%) in comparison to other treatments. While as control treatment had shown no rooting in all types of cutting portions. Key words: Berberis aristata, vegetative propagation, IBA.
