ABSTRACT The regional floristic studies are very important and it can be achieved by exploration of smaller areas. This is useful in the revision of existing flora. The present work based upon the exploration and survey of members of family Asteraceae in Daund Tahsil from Pune district. Daund Tahsil lies in o o Pune district of Maharashtra state, India.. This region extent from 18P P 18’ to 18 P P 41’ North Latitude o o and 74 P P 07’ to 74 P P 51’ East Longitude, covering an area of 1289.86 Sq. Km. (128986 ha.) according to 2011 census. The average height of the study area is 554 meters from mean sea level. This region experience semi-arid climate. Frequent study tours were conducted within the study area during the year 2012-2015 for the collection and documentation of members of family Asteraceae. Plant exploration was conducted to determine plant species of family Asteraceae . The present paper deals with the 43 species belonging to 35 genera of family Asteraceae recorded from Daund Tahsil.

College for Women, Parade, Jammu, Jammu & Kashmir, India Abstract Introduction: The present paper deals with tribe Astereae comprising of 62 species representing 17 genera of family Asteraceae. The study of this tribe is based on the species within the limits of Jammu and Kashmir State. Many of the species are confined to the alpine zones of Kashmir Himalayas. Tribe Astereae is rich one and studies regarding the number of species in each genus are given. Material and Methods: The study of species of this tribe was made in different parts of Jammu and Kashmir. The genera and species were identified with the help of taxonomic literature and compilation of works of other authors wherever required. The change in colour of the florets on drying causes difficulty to know the identity of species. Result: The tribe Astereae is compiled for the first time from the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Astereae constitutes 2.06% and 2.53% of the species in Jammu and Kashmir and India respectively in comparison to 3000 species of this tribe reported from the world. Eight genera of the tribe Astere have been reported from the state of Jammu and Kashmir with single species. Keywords: astereae, Asteraceae, flora, Jammu and Kashmir, India Introduction species) and Conyza (5 species).

It acts as a germicide and appetizer and stomach pain. Essential oils are volatile chemical products formed by odoriferous substances isolated from great variety of plant. These are water insoluble but highly soluble in vegetables and minerals oil and ether. They are categorized according to their main volatile components. Cyathocline purpurea is indigenously found near Lonavala in Maharashtra. Aerial part of the plant used for the isolation of essential oil and alcohol. Biological screen includes tests for antibacterial, antiprotozoal, antimicrobial, antioxidant anti fertility and pharmacological activity. The pharmacological properties of aromatic plants are partially attributed to essential oils. Essential oil are natural, complex, multi-component systems composed mainly of terpenes. Plant continue to serve as possible sources for drugs and chemicals derived from medicinal plants have proven to be an abundant source of biologically active compounds many have been the basis for the development of new lead chemicals for pharmaceuticals.

  • Phytochemical Analysis of Cyathocline Purpuria (Don) O
    Indo Global Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2019; 9(2): 98-102 INDO GLOBAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES ISSN 2249- 1023 Phytochemical Analysis of Cyathocline purpuria (Don) O. Ktze. in Different Solvent System- A Specified Medicinal Plant Ingale S A*, Somwanshi N R, Gaykar B M Research Center in Botany, Ahmednagar College, Ahmednagar-414001 (MS) Address for Correspondence: Ingale SA, [email protected] Received: 01.02.2019 ABSTRACT: Cyathocline purpuria (Don) O. Ktze belonging to Asteraceae family commonly called as Accepted: Gangotra. This plant is found in marshy places of Maharashtra. The plant is traditionally used to treat different 14.08.2019 diseases. It is necessary to study phytochemical composition of Cyathocline purpuria (Don) O. Ktze because it has some novel compounds which are not yet been investigated. Different plant parts (Leaf, Stem, and Bark) Keywords of the plant must have different chemical composition and havea different solubility in different solvent Cyathocline system. So the estimation of phytochemicals was carried out by using different solvent system according to purpuria, polarity. We used different non polar to polar solvent system like Hexane, Toluene, ethyl acetate, Ethanol & Phytochemicals, water for analysis. The study shows that different parts of the plant have different chemical composition as Medicinal plant. presence of alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, resins, Coumarin, amino acids & proteins in different solvent system. The results showed that leaf extract has higher amount of alkaloids, glycosides, amino acids, proteins, terpenes, quinone, coumarins, saponin & lower amount of carbohydrates, flavonoids & resins. Tannins and phenols are present in very low amount. Stem extract showed higher amount of alkaloids, glycosides, amino acids and coumarins.
