Graphical Abstract Abstract. Mansoa alliacea is a native plant from Mansoa alliacea Amazonian basin and has great ancestral value for the local communities. M. alliacea is part of the traditional medicine for healers and shamans and has multiple uses due to the presence of several chemical constituents with important pharmacological properties. Plant derivatives are used as: antiseptic, diuretic, analgesic, antipyretic. Folk medicine is also related to the treatment of many diseases such as: reduction of blood pressure, against atherosclerosis, arthritis and rheumatism. Researches have also proven an appreciable antioxidant property, which revalue it for cosmetic purposes. Chemical composition of plant derivatives includes as main Traditional medicine compounds: diallyl disulphide, diallyl Magical and ritual uses Cold, fever trisulphide, alliin, allicin, propylallyl, divinyl Rheumatism Food, spice sulfide, diallyl sulfide, dimethyl sulfide, Antimalarial Muscle pain daucosterol, beta-sitosterol, fucosterol, Biological activities stigmasterol, iridoides and isothiocyanates, Antioxidant Antifungal naphthoquinones, alkaloids, saponins, flavones.

Zjhra, and many others [estimated 25 families, 1041 genera, and ca. 21,878 species in Lamiales] The goal of this project is to produce a working infraordinal classification of the Lamiales to genus with information on distribution and species richness. All recognized taxa will be clades; adherence to Linnaean ranks is optional. Synonymy is very incomplete (comprehensive synonymy is not a goal of the project, but could be incorporated). Although I anticipate producing a publishable version of this classification at a future date, my near- term goal is to produce a web-accessible version, which will be available to the public and which will be updated regularly through input from systematists familiar with taxa within the Lamiales.

A Renaissance in Plant Growth- Promoting and Biocontrol Agents By

The benefi - cial role of endophytic organisms has dramatically documented world- wide in recent years. Endophytes promote plant growth and yield, remove contaminants from soil, and provide soil nutrients via phosphate solubili- zation/nitrogen fi xation. The capacity of endophytes on abundant produc- tion of bioactive compounds against array of phytopathogens makes them a suitable platform for biocontrol explorations. Endophytes have unique interaction with their host plants and play an important role in induced systemic resistance or biological control of phytopathogens. This trait also benefi ts in promoting plant growth either directly or indirectly. Plant growth promotion and biocontrol are the two sturdy areas for sustainable agriculture where endophytes are the key players with their broad range of benefi cial activities. The coexistence of endophytes and plants has been exploited recently in both of these arenas which are explored in this chapter.
