By NORHAYU BINTI ASIB UPM January 2015 Chairman : Professor Dzolkhifli Omar, PhD. Faculty : Agriculture Rotenone found in the crude extract from the roots of Tuba plants is commonly used as a bioinsecticide to control insect pests of horticultural crops. The control obtained on insect pests varies greatly and this could probably be due to the source and process of extraction, toxicant preparation and application in the field. The need to improve the quality of the rotenone as botanical insecticide and to obtain consistent control of insect pest led to the studies with following objectives; 1) to identify the diversity of Tubaplants based on Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis, Internal Transcribe Spacer (ITS) marker and their morphological characteristics, 2) to extract, and characterize bioactive compound rotenone from Tuba plants, 3) to prepare the bio- based emulsion formulation of rotenone extract and 4) to evaluate the insecticidal properties of the emulsion formulation of rotenone against Diamondback moth (DBM).

  • Endosamara Racemosa (Roxb.) Geesink and Callerya Vasta (Kosterm.) Schot
    Taiwania, 48(2): 118-128, 2003 Two New Members of the Callerya Group (Fabaceae) Based on Phylogenetic Analysis of rbcL Sequences: Endosamara racemosa (Roxb.) Geesink and Callerya vasta (Kosterm.) Schot (1,3) (1,2) Jer-Ming Hu and Shih-Pai Chang (Manuscript received 2 May, 2003; accepted 29 May, 2003) ABSTRACT: Two new members of Callerya group in Fabaceae, Endosamara racemosa (Roxb.) Geesink and Callerya vasta (Kosterm.) Schot, are identified based on phylogenetic analyses of chloroplast rbcL sequences. These taxa joined with other previously identified taxa in the Callerya group: Afgekia, Callerya, and Wisteria. These genera are resolved as a basal subclade in the Inverted Repeat Lacking Clade (IRLC), which is a large legume group that includes many temperate and herbaceous legumes in the subfamily Papilionoideae, such as Astragalus, Medicago and Pisum, and is not close to other Millettieae. Endosamara is sister to Millettia japonica (Siebold & Zucc.) A. Gray, but only weakly linked with Wisteria and Afgekia. KEY WORDS: Endosamara, Callerya, Millettieae, Millettia, rbcL, Phylogenetic analysis. INTRODUCTION Recent molecular phylogenetic studies of the tribe Millettieae have revealed that the tribe is polyphyletic and several taxa are needed to be segregated from the core Millettieae group. One of the major segregates from Millettieae is the Callerya group, comprising species from Callerya, Wisteria, Afgekia, and Millettia japonica (Siebold & Zucc.) A. Gray. The group is considered to be part of the Inverted-Repeat-Lacking Clade (IRLC; Wojciechowski et al., 1999) including many temperate herbaceous legumes. Such result is consistent and supported by chloroplast inverted repeat surveys (Lavin et al., 1990; Liston, 1995) and phylogenetic studies of the phytochrome gene family (Lavin et al., 1998), chloroplast rbcL (Doyle et al., 1997; Kajita et al., 2001), trnK/matK (Hu et al., 2000), and nuclear ribosomal ITS regions (Hu et al., 2002).

Abstract Plant small RNAs (sRNAs) are important regulatory elements that fine-tune gene expression and maintain genome integrity by silencing transposons. They have critical roles in most pathways involved in plant growth and reproductive development. Reproductive organs of monocots produce abundant phased, small interfering RNAs (phasiRNAs). The 21-nt reproductive phasiRNAs triggered by miR2118 are highly enriched in pre-meiotic anthers, and have not been described in eudicots.

Author: Sirichamorn, Yotsawate Title: Systematics and biogeography of Aganope, Brachypterum and Derris (Fabaceae) in Asia Issue Date: 2013-11-28 Chapter 1 General Introduction Aganope, Brachypterum and Derris: Systematics and Biogeography - Chapter 1 General Introduction One of the major problems left in the classification of tribe Millettieae of the Leguminosae (Fabaceae) concerns the Derris-like taxa. Up to now every researcher had different solutions, some would unite all taxa into a single genus, others divided them into several genera. The purpose of this thesis is to tackle the problems at various levels and from different viewpoints. The species will be defined first, after which their phylogeny based on molecular and morphological data will be inferred. The resulting phylogeny will form the basis for a new and less subjective 1 classification. Finally, the biogeographic history of the taxa will be analysed. This General Introduction introduction provides general information of palaeotropic Derris-like taxa. General morphology, ecology and utility of the Asian Derris-like taxa “Derris-like taxa” contain members of the tribe Millettieae (Fabaceae), characterized by their imparipinnate leaves with opposite leaflets and typical flat, usually winged, indehiscent pods. The plants have a pantropical distribution. According to the most recent generic circumscription proposed by Adema (2000), the Asian Derris-like taxa consist of the genera Aganope Miq., Derris Lour. [including Brachypterum (Wight & Arn.) Benth.] and Paraderris (Miq.) Geesink. Derris-like taxa are sometimes very similar because of their overlapping morphological features. Some species also show a high variation in morphological characters and a wide distribution.

    POJ 12(01):70-77 (2019) ISSN:1836-3644 doi: 10.21475/poj.12.01.19.pt1971 Assessment of camel thorn (Alhagi maurorum) as new sources of bioactive compounds using GC-MS technique Reham M. Mostafa, Heba S. Essawy* Botany Department, Facukty of Science, Benha University, Egypt Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Alhagi maurorum (A. maurorum) is one of the medicinally important plants belonging to the family leguminasae, commonly known as camel thorn. This research was amid to identify the chemical compounds in the aerial part of A. maurorum using GC-mass analysis. Three solvents with different polarities were used for the extraction of chemical constituents (water, methanol and petroleum ether). The results of GC-MS analysis led to identification of various compounds. In total, thirty-nine compounds from petroleum ether extract, thirty-two compounds in methanolic extract and seventeen compounds in aqueous extract were identified. Majority of the identified compounds have been reported to possess many biological activities. Among them, we reported 10 new anticancer compounds (Vitamin E; Hexadecanoic acid; Stigmast-5-en-3-ol; Phytol,2-hexadecen-1-ol,3,7,11,15-tetramethyl; Squalene; Hexadecanoic acid; 2-hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl) ethyl ester; Oxime,methoxy-phenyl,methyl N-hydroxyben- zenecarboximidoate; Ergost-5-en-3-ol; 9,12- Octadecad-ienoic acid and Farnesol) from A. maurorum using three solvent, while the best effective solvent was petroluem ether. Therefore, we report that A. maurorum has great potential to be developed into anticancer drugs. Keywords: Secondary metabolites; Alhagi maurarum; GC-mass spectroscopy; anticancer compounds. Introduction Natural products have useful and interesting biological tissue-repairing properties (Al-Snafi, 2015).

Read Full License Page 1/22 Abstract Chromosome set duplication (polyploidy) drives instantaneous speciation and shifts in ecology for angiosperms, and is frequently observed in neo-endemic species. However, the extent to which chromosome set duplication is associated with endemism throughout the owering plants has not been determined. We hypothesised that across the angiosperms polyploidy is more frequent and more pronounced (higher evident ploidy levels) for recent endemics. Data on chromosome counts, molecular dating and distribution for 4210 species belonging to the major clades of angiosperms were mined from literature-based databases. As all clades include diploid taxa, with polyploids representing a possible ‘upper limit’ to the number of chromosomes over evolutionary time, upper boundary regression was used to investigate the relationship between the number of chromosomes and time since taxon divergence, both across clades and separately for families, with endemic and non-endemic species compared. A signicant negative exponential relationship between the number of chromosomes and taxon age was 2 evident across angiosperm clades (R adj=0.48 with endemics and non-endemics considered together, 2 2 R adj=0.46 for endemics; R adj=0.44 for non-endemics; p ≤0.0001 in all cases), which was three times stronger for endemics (decay constant=0.12, cf.
