Buddleja asiatica Family: Buddlejaceae Local/common names: Dog tail, Neemda (Hindi), Agiachita (Assam), Bhati, Dhaula (Kumaun) and Bana (Shimla) Trade name: Data not available Profile: Buddleja, often spelt Buddleia, is now placed in a family of its own, though in the past it was placed in Loganiaceae. The plant was named after the English botanist Reverend Adam Buddle. This shrub is 2-3 tall with dull green leaves and flowers borne in dense spikes. The plant is used as an abortifacient and to cure dermatosis and other skin diseases. It is found to be effective in the treatment of inflammation and malaria. The plant is used as a poison and an intoxicant also. The dried and powdered root is used in the preparation of fermented liquor. The flowers, which are produced in the winter, have a strong aroma like freesias. It propagates naturally by wind-borne seeds. Habitat and ecology: The plant commonly inhabits moist pastures, forests, roadsides and wastelands. It also occurs in woodlands in areas with moderate shade. It is found in Eastern Asia from India to the Philippines. In India, it has been found in Sikkim at an altitude of 2200-2300 m. Morphology: The shrub is 2-3 m tall, with serrulate, alternate leaves that are whitish and pubescent beneath. The flowers are borne in dense terminal panicles (10-50 cm long) and can be white, pink or yellow in colour. The fruit is a small capsule (1-2 cm long). Distinguishing features: The plant has dull green leaves with winged seeds. Life cycle: It is in leaf all year and flowers from January-April. Uses: The plant is used in traditional Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory drug. The dried and powdered root is used in the preparation of fermented liquor. The plant has been used as an abortifacient and also in the treatment of skin conditions. The wood is moderately hard and is used for making walking sticks. Market rate: Data not available .

Towards Resolving Lamiales Relationships
Schäferhoff et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2010, 10:352 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/10/352 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Towards resolving Lamiales relationships: insights from rapidly evolving chloroplast sequences Bastian Schäferhoff1*, Andreas Fleischmann2, Eberhard Fischer3, Dirk C Albach4, Thomas Borsch5, Günther Heubl2, Kai F Müller1 Abstract Background: In the large angiosperm order Lamiales, a diverse array of highly specialized life strategies such as carnivory, parasitism, epiphytism, and desiccation tolerance occur, and some lineages possess drastically accelerated DNA substitutional rates or miniaturized genomes. However, understanding the evolution of these phenomena in the order, and clarifying borders of and relationships among lamialean families, has been hindered by largely unresolved trees in the past. Results: Our analysis of the rapidly evolving trnK/matK, trnL-F and rps16 chloroplast regions enabled us to infer more precise phylogenetic hypotheses for the Lamiales. Relationships among the nine first-branching families in the Lamiales tree are now resolved with very strong support. Subsequent to Plocospermataceae, a clade consisting of Carlemanniaceae plus Oleaceae branches, followed by Tetrachondraceae and a newly inferred clade composed of Gesneriaceae plus Calceolariaceae, which is also supported by morphological characters. Plantaginaceae (incl. Gratioleae) and Scrophulariaceae are well separated in the backbone grade; Lamiaceae and Verbenaceae appear in distant clades, while the recently described Linderniaceae are confirmed to be monophyletic and in an isolated position. Conclusions: Confidence about deep nodes of the Lamiales tree is an important step towards understanding the evolutionary diversification of a major clade of flowering plants. The degree of resolution obtained here now provides a first opportunity to discuss the evolution of morphological and biochemical traits in Lamiales.

Raja S et al / Int. J. of Pharmacy and Analytical Research Vol-6(1) 2017 [039-052] ISSN:2320-2831 IJPAR |Vol.6 | Issue 1 | Jan - Mar -2017 Journal Home page: www.ijpar.com Research article Open Access Physicochemical standardization, phytochemical screening, TLC profiling and GC-MS study of Buddleja asiatica *Raja S and Ramya I GITAM Institute of Pharmacy, GITAM University, Visakhapatnam-530045, Andhra Pradesh, India *Corresponding Author: Dr. S. Raja Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Background Buddleja asiatica is a deciduous shrub traditionally used as an antipyretic, antimalarial and abortifacient. The present study was designed to perform physicochemical standardization and to examine the presence of various phytoconstituents by phytochemical screening and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy method. Methods Evaluation of organoleptic characters and physicochemical parameters were carried out according to WHO guidelines. Various extracts (petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanol) were subjected to standard phytochemical screening methods. Different phytoconstituents in the extracts were analyzed by thin layer chromatography (TLC). Further, gas chromatography mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) study of ethanol extract was performed in Scion 436-GC Bruker instrument. Results The values of standardization parameters were found to be 19.25 ± 0.33% w/w, 07.36 ± 0.07 % w/w, 03.35 ± 0.06 % w/w, 25.75±1.13% w/w and 01.85± 1.12 % w/w for loss on drying, total ash, acid insoluble ash, water soluble extractive and swelling index respectively. In phytochemical screening, petroleum ether extract revealed the presence of saponins, steroids and terpenoids whereas chloroform extract confirmed the presence of alkaloids and saponins.

Leaves opposite, rarely alternate; stipules usually leafy, suborbicular and auriculate or reduced to a transverse line; petiole often short; leaf blade margin entire, crenate, or dentate. Inflorescences terminal and/or axillary, usually many flowered; bracts mostly leafy; bracteoles resembling sepals. Flowers 4-merous, bisexual or unisexual. Calyx campanulate or subcampanulate, less often cupular or obconical, tube usually longer than lobes. Corolla campanulate, cupular, salverform, or funnelform; tube cylindric, straight to curved, usually longer than lobes; lobes imbricate, rarely valvate. Stamens inserted on corolla tube, usually included, alternate with corolla lobes; filaments shorter to longer than anthers; anthers introrse, 2-locular, base usually deeply cordate. Ovary 2(–4)- locular; ovules several to many per locule. Style short to long; stigma often large, clavate, capitate, or less often 2-lobed. Fruit a septicidal 2-valved capsule or (in Buddleja madagascariensis) many-seeded berry. Seeds small, often winged; endosperm fleshy; embryo straight. About 100 species: tropics and subtropics of America, Africa, and Asia; 20 species and five hybrids in China. Within China at least five recognizable hybrids are occasionally found of which three have been given hybrid epithets. These hybrids are intermediate between parental species and are essentially impossible to key out. 1a.

Along with a description of the abiotic and biotic characteristics of the invaded site, the current demographic and dynamic trends of the detected population by means of growth-ring analysis was also assessed. Moreover, an overview on the his- tory of its introduction in Europe is provided, underlining the key role played by the Mediterranean cities with respect to the acclimatization and spread of alien tropical and subtropical plants. Due to its low frequency under cultivation, the Malagasy smoke bush should not behave as an invader in the future; on the other hand, its ability to cover and smother neighbouring trees in very short times, make its spread within the whole Mediterranean area worth regular monitoring.

The Genus Buddleja have more than 100 species, many of them are distributed in Mediterranean and Asian regions. A very small number of common species of the Genus in majority of fruiting plants have been investigated for their biological potential. So for, isolation of about 153 or more new/novel chemical substances have been reported. Purposes of the review is to discuss the structurally established and pharmacologically significant natural substances from wide variety of different species of this genus. Traditionally, species of the genus are reported to be used for healing, treatment of liver diseases, bronchial complaints, preventing several other diseases by exhibiting diuretic properties, sedative functions, analgesic potential, antirheumatic actions, antimicrobial activities, anti hyperglycemic functions and antioxidant properties.
