Aloe Names Book
S T R E L I T Z I A 28 the aloe names book Olwen M. Grace, Ronell R. Klopper, Estrela Figueiredo & Gideon F. Smith SOUTH AFRICAN national biodiversity institute SANBI Pretoria 2011 S T R E L I T Z I A This series has replaced Memoirs of the Botanical Survey of South Africa and Annals of the Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens which SANBI inherited from its predecessor organisations. The plant genus Strelitzia occurs naturally in the eastern parts of southern Africa. It comprises three arborescent species, known as wild bananas, and two acaulescent species, known as crane flowers or bird-of-paradise flowers. The logo of the South African National Biodiversity Institute is based on the striking inflorescence of Strelitzia reginae, a native of the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu-Natal that has become a garden favourite worldwide. It symbol- ises the commitment of the Institute to champion the exploration, conservation, sustainable use, appreciation and enjoyment of South Africa’s exceptionally rich biodiversity for all people.

Testing the Reliability of the Standard and Complementary DNA Barcodes for the Monocot Subfamily Alooideae from South Africa

In this study, we assessed the species-level discriminatory power of the standard (rbcLa + matK) and complementary barcodes ITS1 and trnH-psbA within the subfamily Alooideae (Asphodelaceae), a large, recent plant radiation whose species are important in horticulture yet are threatened. Alooideae has its centre of endemism in southern Africa with some outlier species occurring elsewhere in Africa and Madagascar. We sampled 360 specimens representing 235 species within all 11 genera of the subfamily. Applying three distance-based methods, all markers perform poorly for our combined dataset with the highest proportion of correct species-level specimen identifications of 30% found for ITS1. -

Cancer Biology 2017;7(4)
Cancer Biology 2017;7(4) http://www.cancerbio.net Review on therapeutic and medicinal use of aloevera Tesfahun Terefe and Tsehaye Neges Candidates of veterinary Medicine, Collage of Veterinary medicine and Animal Sciences, University of Gondar, Ethiopia Email: [email protected] Abstract:This paper is mainly aimed to review the therapeutic and medicinal use of aloevera. The aloe vera or succulent has a long history of being used for medicinal purposes, dating back to ancient Egypt. The plant is native to North Africa, Southern Europe, and the Canary Islands. It’s used in traditional Indian medicine for constipation, skin diseases, worm infestation, infections and as natural remedy for colic. In Chinese medicine, it’s often recommended in the treatment of fungal diseases, and in the Western world, it has found widespread use in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food industries. The plant Aloe vera is used in Ayurvedic, Homoeopathic and Allopathic streams of medicine, and not only tribal community but also most of the people for food and medicine. The plant leaves contains numerous vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, natural sugars and other bioactive compounds with emollient, purgative, anti-microbial, anti inflammatory, antioxidant, aphrodisiac, anti-helmenthic, antifungal, antiseptic and cosmetic values for health care. This plant has potential to cure sunburns, burns and minor cuts, and even skin cancer. The external use in cosmetic primarily acts as skin healer and prevents injury of epithelial tissues, cures acne and gives a youthful glow to skin, also acts as extremely powerful laxative. As aloevera has a great therapeutic and medicinal value, therefore; it is better to use herbal medicine in modern ways rather than using traditional methods. -
