1 Progress and Final Report for Micropropagation of Curry Tree For
Progress and Final Report for Micropropagation of Curry Tree for Nursery Sales and Production of Natural Enemies of the Asian Citrus Psyllid California Citrus Nursery Board - GOD-13 Time Period: January 1, 2013 – December 31, 2013 Project Leader: Kris Godfrey, Contained Research Facility, University of California, 555 Hopkins Road, Davis, CA 95616; Phone: 530-754-2104; Fax: 530-74-8179; Email: [email protected] Cooperating Personnel: David Tricoli, Plant Transformation Facility, 190 Robbins Hall, University of California – Davis, Davis, CA 95616, Phone: 530-752-3766, email: [email protected]; David Morgan, California Dept. of Food and Agriculture, 4500 Glenwood Dr., Bldg. E., Riverside, CA 92501, Phone: 951-328-2642; Email: [email protected] Executive Summary: This project was funded for one year, so research outlined under objective 1 was conducted. The other 2 objectives (consumer acceptance and outreach) were to be performed during year 2 of the project and were not funded. However, we are looking for funding for the outreach component of this project, and the plants generated will be used for Asian citrus psyllid (ACP) rearing by the California Dept. of Food and Agriculture (CDFA). This report summarizes the research accomplished for objective 1, and all studies were conducted by the UC-Davis Plant Transformation Facility. Methods for micropropagation of curry trees were developed using several types of media for both seedlings from seed and nodal explants from mature trees. Establishment of in vitro shoot cultures and multiplication of shoots in vitro has been achieved and improvements in shoot quality were observed by altering the basal salt formulations. -

Accepted 15 May 2020 A literature research for the Myrrh or C. myrrh was performed using Cochrane Library databases and Medline. Forty two papers, including abstracts and full Keywords: articles published from 2007 to 2020, in the area of interest were reviewed. It was Myrrh found that Myrrh or C. myrrh is one of the medicinal plants believed to have COVID-19 therapeutic effects in various diseases. It has medicinal properties, such as Oral Health immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, antioxidant, antimicrobial, Qatar hepatoprotective, anti-tumor, anti-ulcer, and analgesic activities. Besides, Myrrh Mouthwash has also shown to have antiviral properties that help in preventing different Chemistry types of viral diseases. It noticed in the State of Qatar, sales of herbs and Myrrh Gargle has escalade since the surgency of COVID-19 cases, so is there a belief in Myrrh's effectiveness to be used during COVID-19? Studying the effectiveness of Myrrh mouthwashes to combat COVID-19 can emerge as a promising avenue in the field of research. -
Dipterocarps
1682 TROPICAL ECOSYSTEMS / Dipterocarps Dipterocarps B Krishnapillay, Forest Research Institute Malaysia, Kepong, Malaysia & 2004, Elsevier Ltd. All Rights Reserved. Introduction The dipterocarp forests of Southeast Asia constitute a dominant and particularly valuable component of the world’s tropical rainforest. As a family of plants, Dipterocarpaceae may perhaps hold the distinction of being the best-known trees in the tropics. Their ecosystems are extremely diverse. They are uneven in their age and multilayered. They grow all the year round under warm temperatures and on sites where there is a large amount of rainfall. However, those growing in the seasonal forest are generally medium sized with the tallest trees being around 20 m with a maximum diameter of about 50 cm. Generally dipterocarps have been observed to occur on soils with very low fertility. Currently the dipterocarps dominate the international tropical timber market, and therefore play an important role in the economy of many Southeast Asian countries. In addition to Figure 1 Phytogeographical distribution of the family Diptero- timber, this family of trees also produces other non- carpaceae worldwide. timber products like resins and oleoresins. 3.

Original language: English CoP18 Doc. 66 CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA ____________________ Eighteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties Colombo (Sri Lanka), 23 May – 3 June 2019 Species specific matters TRADE IN BOSWELLIA SPP. (BURSERACEAE) 1. This document has been submitted by Sri Lanka and the United States of America.* Overview 2. The genus Boswellia is the source of the aromatic resin known as frankincense, a semi-solid, yellow-brown substance derived from the gummy sap of the tree. Also known as olibanum, this resin and resin-derived essential oils and alcohol extracts are widely traded internationally and are incorporated into a variety of healthcare, home care, aromatherapy, cosmetics and toiletries, and dietary supplement products. Bark, extracts of bark, wood products, and live plants of these species may also be traded internationally. Boswellia species provide economic and ecological benefits across their range. However, there is growing concern that increasing demand and unregulated international trade of this high value commodity might threaten the survival of these species. This document provides background information to serve as a background and seek input from Parties and insights from the Plants Committee for further information gathering, review, and discussion to better understand the impact of international trade on these species. The species and their status 3. Boswellia species are the sole source of frankincense, also known as olibanum (Coppen 1995; Hassan Alaamri 2012). The genus includes includes about 18 small to medium tree species that are native to the arid tropical regions of Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. -
