Sida Cordifolia

Several herbs are traditionally used in the treatment of a variety of ailments particularly in the rural areas, where herbal medicine is mainly the source of health care system. Many of these herbs havenot been assessed for safety or toxicity to tissue or organs of the mammalian recipients. An attempt is made to prove the efficacy of Sida cordifolia Linn., (a traditional medicinal plant chosen on the basis of ethnomedical knowledge) for its Cardiotonic, Antibacterial and Anthelmintic activities. Sida cordofolia Linn., is used traditionally, inter alia, in the treatment of various infections, asthma, diarrhoea, heart and stomach disorders. Cardiotonicactivity is performed using isolated Frog Heart Perfusion Technique. Antibacterial activity of the whole plant extracts were assessed by Agar well diffusion method against the strains of Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus. Anthelmintic activity was studied against Pheretima posthuma. Phytochemical screening of powdered plant material revealed thepresence of some secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, saponins, tannins, glycosides and flavonoids. Results indicated that methanol, chloroform, aqueous extracts have significant cardiotonic activity but less than standard drugs. Methanol and Aqueous extracts showed high antibacterial activity and anthelmintic activity than the standard drugs. In a nutshell, we can conclude that the methanol and aqueous fractions of Sida cordifolia Linn., had a profound antibacterial and anthelmintic effect eventhough it possessed very significant cardiotonic activity. This validates its continuous usage in ethnomedicine. This plant could be developed into cheap, safe and culturally acceptable standardized herbal products and may serve as asource of new molecules for broad-spectrum antimicrobial and anthelmintic agent.

Millet Yield

Sida cordifolia L. (SC) is an invading species that represents a threat to grazing lands in Niger. In order to enhance this invasive species, we studied the use of this plant for compost-making. First, the study evaluated the development of chemical properties under aerobic composting of SC in pit (P) and in heap (H) composting with two different mixtures. Mixture 1 (M1) contained 75% SC, 20% manure and 5% ash, while mixture 2 (M2) contained 95% SC and 5% manure. Then, the phytotoxicity test of the composts obtained was carried out by evaluating the effects of four different concentrations of compost on germination of pearl millet. The study of the effect of the rates 1000 kg ha-1 and 1500 kg ha-1 (100g and 150 g hill-1) of the different composts on pearl millet yield under field conditions. The composting was undertaken at Molli fishery station and the agronomic tests at the N’Dounga experimental site during two seasons (2018 and 2019). The chemical analysis showed that the composts from M1 were richer in plant nutrients than the M2 composts. All four rates of composts gave germination rates beyond 50% independent of composting method or compost mixture. On both seasons, the 1000 kg ha-1 M1P gave the best result in terms of grain yield. In 2018, M1P treatment increased grain yield compared to the control by 652 kg ha-1 (105.2%), while in 2019, the corresponding yield increase was 812 kg ha-1 (118.02%). Application of 1000 kg M1 compost ha-1 corresponded to about 11.1 kg N ha-1, which is more than three times the amount of N applied when using the recommended rate of 20 kg NPK ha-1 as micro dosing. This result showed that compost of SC can be used as a supplement to mineral fertilizer for increasing pearl millet yield.

ABSTRACT: In pastures, the incidence of weeds reduces the productivity and quality of forage. The identification of the weed species in pastures is fundamental to choose the renewal method. Thus, the objective of this work was to perform phytosociology before and after the renewal of a Brachiaria decumbens pasture, with the implantation of agrosilvopastoral systems. Eighteen different crop arrangements for pasture renewal were evaluated. The renewal systems were by eucalyptus integration (at 12 x 2 m or 12 x 3 m spacings) with maize, Brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandu (palisade grass) and/or Macrotyloma axillare (perennial horsegram), or monoculture and intercropping of palisade grass and perennial horsegram, as well as the evaluation of the application or not of the herbicide bentazon, at the recommended dose for maize crops (0.72 kg ha-1). Relative frequency, relative density, relative abundance, relative dominance, coverage value index, importance value index, dry matter and similarity index were evaluated. In the first survey, before the pasture renewal, 23 plant species were identified. After the implantation of agrosilvopastoral systems, the species Sida cordifolia, Lantana camara and B. decumbens were the only occurring ones before and after the renewal of the pasture with agrosilvopastoral systems. The use of palisade grass and the application of the herbicide were efficient in controlling weeds. In systems that contained palisade grass and perennial horsegram, the latter was not found in the survey conducted one year after the implantation.

Modulation of nitric oxide (NO) may offer novel approaches in the treatment of a variety of diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. A strategy in the modulation of NO expression may be through the use of herbal medicines. We surveyed medicinal plant research that utilized multicomponent extracts similar to what is used in clinical phytotherapy or in commerce, for demonstrated effects on NO activity. SciFinder Scholar, Pubmed, Web of Science, and BIOSIS were searched to identify human, animal, <em>in vivo</em>, <em>ex vivo </em>or <em>in vitro</em> research on botanical medicines, in whole or standardized form, that act on nitric oxide activity. iNOS was the most frequently investigated enzyme system and this system was up-regulated by many plant extracts, including, <em>Chicorium intybus, Cocos nucifera, Echinacea purpurea, Euonymus alatus, Ixeris dentate, Oldenlandia diffusa, Rhinacanthus nasutus, and Sida cordifolia. Many plant extracts down-regulated iNOS, including Centella asiatica, Dichroa Febrifuga, Echinacea purpurea, Evolvulus alsinoides, Fagonia cretica, Ginkgo biloba, Mollugo verticillata, Lactuca indica, Lithospermum erythrorhizon, Pueraria thunbergiana, and Taraxacum officinale</em>. The eNOS system was stimulated by <em>Eucommia ulmoides, Sida cordifolia</em>, and <em>Thymus pulegioides while Fagonia cretica, Rubia cordifolia</em> and <em>Tinospora cordifolia </em>down-regulated nNOS. Given the activity demonstrated by many of these herbal medicines, the increasing awareness of the effects of nitric oxide on a wide variety of disease processes and the growing incidence of these conditions in the population, further study of medicinal plants on nitric oxide signaling may lead to novel therapies and further insight into human physiology.
