  • Revisiting the Status of Cultivated Plant Species Agrobiodiversity in India: an Overview ANURUDH K SINGH* 2924, Sector-23, Gurgaon, Haryana, India 122 017
    Proc Indian Natn Sci Acad 83 No. 1 March 2017 pp. 151-174 Printed in India. DOI: 10.16943/ptinsa/2016/v82/48406 Review Article Revisiting the Status of Cultivated Plant Species Agrobiodiversity in India: An Overview ANURUDH K SINGH* 2924, Sector-23, Gurgaon, Haryana, India 122 017 (Received on 14 March 2016; Revised on 20 May 2016; Accepted on 16 June 2016) A revisit to the literature on cultivated plant species agrobiodiversity in India revealed that the floristic diversity is represented by 17,926 species of angiosperm, while Indian agriculture cultivates 811 plant species and harbours more than 900 wild relatives of the cultivated plant species distributed over 10 (+ 1) biogeographic regions of the the country, significantly higher than commonly cited in the literature. Further, it revealed the role of Indian communities in domestication to cultivation of around 215 economically important plant species, and adaption of around 600 exotic crop species. Based on new evidence, several species require inclusion and others deletion, and many need further investigations to resolve the issue on country of their origin. Cultivation of crop species in diverse natural and man-made agroecological systems for centuries has generated a huge amount of genetic diversity in a large number of crop species, maintained by the farmers in the form of landraces or farmer’s varieties, and conserved as collections/accessions in the national agricultural research system.

Tripathi1 and Lokesh Upadhyay2 1Chemistry Division, Forest Research Institute, P.O.-New Forest-248006, Dehradun, India 2Advance Research Centre for Indian System of Medicine, PRIST University, Thanjavur-613403, India Received on:12-06-2012; Revised on: 17-07-2012; Accepted on:26-08-2012 ABSTRACT The present investigation was designed to assess the phytochemical profile of Phaseolus. trilobus Ait. syn Vigna trilobata (L) Verdc (family: fabaceae) roots and antidiabetic effect of methanol extract of the roots of the plant on Streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Preliminary phytochemical screening of the methanol extract revealed the presence of different types of compounds including flavonoids, steroids, terpenoids, saponin, glycoside and tannin. Acute toxicity studies of dried extract of roots at an orally administered dose of 2000 mg/kg showed neither lethality nor any reaction and behavioral change indicating the dose to be safe. Oral administration of root extract at the dose of 400 mg/kg showed a significant increase in body weight and decrease in blood glucose level on 15th and 20th day of post induction as compared to untreated diabetic rats. The significant decrease in blood glucose level in diabetic rats is found comparable to that of standard drug Glibenclamide thereby indicating the root extract of P. trilobus to be a potent antidiabetic drug and justifying its use in the traditional system of medicine. Key words: Phaseolus trilobus, Roots, Phytochemical profile, Antidiabetic activity.
