This plant could form part of every region’s cultural heritage and can be transferred to the next generation. Moreover, Amaranthus is a multipurpose plant that has been identified as a traditional edible vegetable endowed with nutritional value, besides its fodder, medicinal, nutraceutical, industrial, and ornamental potentials. In recent decade Amaranthus has received increased research interest. Despite its endowment, there is a dearth of awareness of its numerous potential benefits hence, it is being underutilized. Suitable cultivation systems, innovative Citation: Ruth, O.N.; Unathi, K.; processing, and value-adding techniques to promote its utilization are scarce. However, a food-based Nomali, N.; Chinsamy, M. approach has been suggested as a sustainable measure that tackles food-related problem, especially Underutilization Versus in harsh weather. Thus, in this review, a literature search for updated progress and potential Nutritional-Nutraceutical Potential of uses of Amaranthus from online databases of peer-reviewed articles and books was conducted.

  • Impacts of Cattle, Fire and Wind in Rocky Savannas, Southeastern Brazil
    Acta Universitatis Carolinae Environmentalica 22 (2008): 111–130 Impacts of Cattle, Fire and Wind in Rocky Savannas, Southeastern Brazil JIŘÍ KOLBEK*, RUY JOSÉ VÁLKA ALVES** *Institute of Botany, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, CZ-252 43 Průhonice, Czech Republic, [email protected] **Museu Nacional (UFRJ), Quinta da Boa Vista s. no., São Cristóvão, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil, [email protected] Accepted July 28, 2008 Abstract: The impacts of cattle (grazing, trampling and dung deposition), fire, and wind upon the rocky savannas (campo rupestre) of Minas Gerais, southeastern Brazil, are briefly evaluated. Peculiar life forms of vascular plants and their adaptations to natural disturbances are analyzed. The Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis (IDH) is considered consistent with the findings for fire and wind. However, by altering the soil parameters, the presence of cattle brings about continuous and cyclic disturbances with long-lasting negative impacts on vegetation and on the survival of native species. The proportion of fire-adapted vascular plants species in campo rupestre was found to be comparable to those of the Brazilian zonal savannas on latossol (cerrado). Key words: campo rupestre, ecology, invasive species, management, white-sand savanna INTRODUCTION Brazilian rocky savannas (campo rupestre) are a phytogeographic province centered in the Espinhaço mountains in Bahia and Minas Gerais states (Fig. 1), between latitudes 10°–20°35’S and longitudes 40°10’–44°30’W (Giulietti et al. 2007). This extrazonal vegetation complex is inserted mainly within the humid savanna (cerrado) and semiarid savanna (caatinga) biomes (Alves et al. 2007), and typically has exceptionally nutrient-poor soils rich in Fe and Al (Benites et al.

La familia Amaranthaceae contiene cerca de 70 géneros y un millar de especies que se distribuyen por casi todo el planeta, exceptuando la región ártica, pero está más diversificada hacia las regiones tropicales. En América tropical está representada por 20 géneros y 300 especies aproximadamente, algunas de las cuales son introducidas y se comportan como malezas. Sin embargo, otras tantas especies se utilizan como plantas ornamentales o como fuente de medicamentos a nivel local. En este tratamiento para Colombia se presentan 14 géneros y 49 especies, por lo que esperamos que esta obra sea de gran utilidad para el conocimiento de esta importante familia en Colombia y los países vecinos, y que se convierta en una herramienta útil para la identificación y conocimiento de las especies.

  • Plant Structure in the Brazilian Neotropical Savannah Species
    Chapter 16 Plant Structure in the Brazilian Neotropical Savannah Species Suzane Margaret Fank-de-Carvalho, Nádia Sílvia Somavilla, Maria Salete Marchioretto and Sônia Nair Báo Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/59066 1. Introduction This chapter presents a review of some important literature linking plant structure with function and/or as response to the environment in Brazilian neotropical savannah species, exemplifying mostly with Amaranthaceae and Melastomataceae and emphasizing the environment potential role in the development of such a structure. Brazil is recognized as the 17th country in megadiversity of plants, with 17,630 endemic species among a total of 31,162 Angiosperms [1]. The focus in the Brazilian Cerrado Biome (Brazilian Neotropical Savannah) species is justified because this Biome is recognized as a World Priority Hotspot for Conservation, with more than 7,000 plant species and around 4,400 endemic plants [2-3]. The Brazilian Cerrado Biome is a tropical savannah-like ecosystem that occupies about 2 millions of km² (from 3-24° Latitude S and from 41-43° Longitude W), with a hot, semi-humid seasonal climate formed by a dry winter (from May to September) and a rainy summer (from October to April) [4-8]. Cerrado has a large variety of landscapes, from tall savannah woodland to low open grassland with no woody plants and wetlands, as palm swamps, supporting the richest flora among the world’s savannahs-more than 7,000 native species of vascular plants- with high degree of endemism [3, 6]. The “cerrado” word is used to the typical vegetation, with grasses, herbs and 30-40% of woody plants [9-10] where trees and bushes display contorted trunk and branches with thick and fire-resistant bark, shiny coriaceous leaves and are usually recovered with dense indumentum [10].

Research Article COMPARATIVE STUDIES ON MORPHOLOGY AND ANATOMY OF SELECTED SPECIES OF THE GENUS AMARANTHUS L. IN KERALA S. Arya, *T. Rajesh Kumar and R.Santhoshkumar Department of Botany, Mahatma Gandhi College (Kerala University) *Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT The genus Amaranthus, a widely cultivated taxonomic group, consists about 60–70 species. Collectively known as Amaranth, it is a cosmopolitan genus of herbs belonging to the family Amaranthaceae. Most of amaranth species are summer annual weeds and are commonly referred to as pig weed. The floral and vegetative characters of the genus are complicated and hence it is refered as a difficult genus. The paper attempts to understand in deep the morphological and anatomical characters of selected five species of Amaranthus viz of A. caudatus, A. tricolor, A. viridis, A. blitum and A. hybridus. An indended key is prepared on the anatomy and morphological characters reporting the new unnoticed traits which would help in the easy identification of the species. It also puts light into the evolutionary relationship of these species with respect to the taxonomical and anatomical traits. Keywords: Amaranthus, Morphology, Anatomy, Key to the Species INTRODUCTION Under the traditional Bentham and Hooker system of classification (1862), the family Amaranthaceae comes under the series Curvembryae under the group Monochlamydae of Dicotyledons (Sambamurthy, 2010). Schinz, while dividing the family into two sub-families, viz. Amaranthoideae and Gomphrenoideae, included amaranths under the former group (Subfamily: Amaranthoideae; Tribe: Amarantheae (Vasishta, 1994).
