Austin Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, 2021 North Kinney Road, Tucson, AZ 85743, USA Received 23 October 2007; received in revised form 28 January 2008; accepted 29 January 2008 Available online 12 February 2008 Abstract People in the Indian region often apply shankhapushpi and vishnukranti, two Sanskrit-based common names, to Evolvulus alsinoides. These are pre-European names that are applied to a medicinal American species transported into the area. The period of introduction is uncertain, but probably took place in the 1500s or 1600s. Examination of relationships of Evolvulus alsinoides, geographic distribution, its names in Asia, medical uses, and chemical and laboratory analysis indicates that the alien plant was adopted, given an ancient Indian name, and incorporated into some Old World pharmacopoeias. The herb apparently was included in medicines because it not only reminded people of certain aspects of their gods and goddesses, but also because the chemicals it contained were useful against some maladies.

The rapid diet transition in the region is leading to a high prevalence of non-communicable diseases. The aim of this exploratory study was to document traditional foods and beverages and associated traditional knowledge that have potential positive health impacts, from selected countries in the region. The study also focused on identifying their importance in the prevention and management of lifestyle-related diseases and nutritional deficiencies as well as for the improvement of the overall health and wellbeing. This was conducted in selected locations in Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Nepal through a qualitative method with a pre-tested documentation format. Through a detailed documentation of their health benefits, the study tries to highlight the significance of traditional foods in public health as well as their relevance to local market economies towards sustainable production and consumption and sustainable community livelihoods.

  • Taking Plant Pharmaceuticals from Research to Production
    From Farm to Pharm: Taking plant pharmaceuticals from research to production Benjamin Doffek BSc, MSc (Hons) 0000-0001-7583-426X A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2020 Institute for Molecular Bioscience Abstract Abstract Affordable production of pharmaceuticals with high potency and low side effects is a major challenge of the 21st century. Peptides are an emerging class of therapeutics that have the potential to marry the specificity and efficacy of protein drugs with the stability and membrane permeability of small molecule drugs. Although many peptides are amenable to chemical synthesis, their cost of production is high, as is the generation of waste products. Peptide production in plants has the potential to be a scalable, cost effective, and a less environmentally taxing alternative. Cyclotides, first discovered in Oldenlandia affinis, are a unique class of backbone cyclic peptides containing three stabilising disulfide bridges that form a knot-like structure. Their stability, and for some variants, the ability to traverse cellular membranes make them ideal candidates for pharmaceutical and agricultural applications. Even though highly constrained sterically, cyclotides are amenable to engineering by replacing native sequences with bioactive epitopes. In this thesis, cyclotide production strategies in plant cell suspensions are examined with a special focus placed on O. affinis as an archetypical cyclotide producer. Additional species investigated are Clitoria ternatea, Hybanthus enneaspermus, Nicotiana benthamiana, and Petunia hybrida. Insights into how cyclotides and their biosynthetic processing machinery are regulated in suspension plant cells are reported and provide first steps towards an affordable and environmentally friendly peptide production system in plants.

For Cavalcade, the medium containing 1 mg L-1 BA produced the best shoot multiplication with an excess of six shoots produced from a single shoot (over four weeks) with a mean height 2.0 ± 0.01 cm. Adventitious shoot regeneration was obtained directly from stem axes. For Stylo 184, the maximum shoot regeneration (29.5 ± 1.0 cm shoots/explant) and height (1.5 ± 0.1 cm) was achieved using 7 mg L-1 BA and 0.01 mg L-1 NAA.

Gann, Executive Director Submitted to CarolAnn Sharkey Key West Botanical Garden 5210 College Road Key West, Florida 33040 and Kate Marks Heritage Preservation 1012 14th Street, NW, Suite 1200 Washington DC 20005 Introduction The Key West Botanical Garden (KWBG) is located at 5210 College Road on Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida. It is a 7.5 acre conservation area, owned by the City of Key West. The KWBG requested that The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) conduct a floristic evaluation of its natural areas and grounds and to provide recommendations. Study Design On August 9-10, 2005 an inventory of all vascular plants was conducted at the KWBG. All areas of the KWBG were visited, including the newly acquired property to the south. Special attention was paid toward the remnant natural habitats. A preliminary plant list was established. Plant taxonomy generally follows Wunderlin (1998) and Bailey et al. (1976). Results Five distinct habitats were recorded for the KWBG. Two of which are human altered and are artificial being classified as developed upland and modified wetland. In addition, three natural habitats are found at the KWBG. They are coastal berm (here termed buttonwood hammock), rockland hammock, and tidal swamp habitats. Developed and Modified Habitats Garden and Developed Upland Areas The developed upland portions include the maintained garden areas as well as the cleared parking areas, building edges, and paths.
