Swertia chirayita is an important medicinal plant from Nepal with anti-diabetic, anti-pyretic, anti-malarial and anti-inflammatory potential and used in therapeutic herbal preparations in parts of South Asia. The main phytochemicals in crude aqueous and ethanolic extracts of different plant parts of Swertia chirayita collected from nine different districts of Nepal representing West, East and Central Nepal were quantified using HPLC/DAD (High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Diode Array Detection). The quantities of these phytochemicals were also compared between wild and cultivated plant parts of Swertia chirayita. Amarogentin, mangiferin, swertiamarin were the main phytochemicals in all extracts. The highest quantity of all the three phytochemicals was found in IL (inflorescence and leaf mixture) of all the collected plants samples. There was no significant difference in the amounts of these three phytochemicals between extracts from wild and cultivated plants. The result from this study substantiates the validity of cultivated Swertia chirayita for medicinal purposes and trade.Key words:  Swertia chirayita; HPLC/DAD; Wild; Cultivated; Phytochemicals; Quantification; Mangiferin; Swertiamarin; AmarogentinDOI: 10.3126/eco.v17i0.4118EcoprintAn International Journal of EcologyVol. 17, 2010Page: 59-68Uploaded date: 3 January, 2011

Important Medicinal Plant

Ocimum kilimandscharicum Guerke an important medicinal plant of Jammu and Kashmir, India was found to be pollinated by insects belonging to 4 orders, 8 families and 14 species. The flowers of O. kilimandscharicum were visited abundantly by Amegilla zonata (L.) followed by Apis dorsata and A. cerana. The number of bees foraging during different times on the day ranged from 4.7 - 11.30/ 5 plants/5 min; visited 12 - 25 flowers/5 plant and spent 2.3 - 7.9 s/flower. Foraging populations of A.zonata responded significantly to environmental factors. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjb.v44i1.22735 Bangladesh J. Bot. 44(1): 129-132, 2015 (March

Important Medicinal Plant

An experiment was performed to establish a regeneration protocol for an important medicinal plant, Asparagus racemosus. In the present investigation, nodal and internodal explants were employed for callus induction and axillary shoot formation. Maximum callus induction frequency was found on MS medium fortified with 2,4-D (1.0 mg/L) along with NAA (1.0 mg/L) and BAP (0.5 mg/L). However, individual effects of 2,4-D or NAA with BAP showed least callus induction. The higher concentrations of 2,4-D and BAP decreased the response of explants. However, maximum axillary shoot formation was observed on MS medium adjuvanted with BAP (2.0 mg/L) and NAA (0.5 mg/L).
