Sam bo chinh (Abelmoschus sagittifolius (Kurz) Merr.) is a precious medicinal plant that has been exploited and planted in Vietnam for a long time. However, the morphological characteristics of this plant is easy to confuse with other species of the same genus. In addition, the microscopic characteristics and medicinal powder composition of this medicinal plant have not been comprehensively described. The present investigation was aimed to determine the morphological and microscopic characters of Sam bo chinh using comparative morphology, anatomical research and medicinal powder analysis. The complete description of morphological and microscopic characteristics reported in this study will serve as valuable data for the conservation and development of this species in Vietnam. Keywords Morphology, microscopic characteristics, medicinal plant, Abelmoschus sagittifolius.

This study aims to determine and identify the composition and type of structure medicinal plants in the Sriwijaya botanical garden through analysis of medicinal plant vegetation by using a species diversity index. The research method used was a survey with a sampling technique used was a sampling method or intentionally from the area of the Sriwijaya Botanical Garden conservation area. Using the formula for sampling intensity [IS] of 2% and a total area of 100 Ha, the number of sample plots obtained is 50. This study identified 43 families and 76 species of medicinal plants. The highest importance index (INP) of the lower plants in the lower plantswas Senduduk (Melastoma malabathricum) a value 29,797%, while the lowest INP is Cataract (Laurentia longifora), Curry Leaf (Murraya koenigii), Kumis Kucing (Orthosiphon aristatus) a 0,724%. While in INP, the highest mastery of medicinal plants at sapling level is Jelutung (Dyera costulata) a value 40.741%, while the lowest INP a butterfly (Bauhinia porpurea) with 4.204%. The diversity indexes of medicinal plants at the understorey and sapling levels were found to be 2.00 and 1.03, in both, indicating that understorey and sapling diversity was moderate and the community state was very stable. While the diversity index of medicinal plants at the seedling level was 0.94, indicating that medicinal plant diversity at the seedling stage is poor and the community state is quite poor.

Ethnomedicinal surveys can potentially bring out many different clues for the development of safe, effective and inexpensive indigenous remedies. Present study has been focused on Banjara tribe of Mantha tahesil district Jalana of Maharashtra, India. Banjara tribes in this area have been using number of plants in their traditional medicine. The ethnomedicinal survey brought to light 51 medicinal plants belonging to 32 families distributed in 23 genera used very commonly by this Tribe. The different plant parts like stem, leaves, fruit, flower, bark, root, seed and pod were used by this tribal community. The plants were identified with relevant information and are documented with their botanical name, family, local name, parts used, mode of preparation and uses. Documenting the indigenous knowledge through ethnobotanical studies is important for the conservation and utilization of biological resources and for the wale fare of human being.

Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir is a reservoir of enormous natural resources including the wealth of medicinal plants. The present paper deals with 12 medicinal plant species belonging to 8 genera of angiosperms used on pneumonia in cattle such as cows, sheep, goats and buffaloes in different areas of Poonch district. Due to poverty and nonavailability of modern health care facilities, the indigenous people of the area partially or fully depend on surrounding medicinal plants to cure the different ailments of their cattles. Further research on modern scientific line is necessary to improve their efficacy, safety and validation of the traditional knowledge.

The indigenous knowledge of the Basotho makes it simple for this speech community to name their traditional medicinal plants in such a way that they are meaningful; this could also be viewed as an empowerment technique, especially in the economic sphere. Their medicinal plants names seem to be idiomatic and to express certain philosophies of the Basotho society. Creativity is observable in this kind of naming, and many names allude to the kind of remedy that is associated with the medicinal plant. It is therefore the interest of this paper to consider the names of medical plants among the Basotho whose names allude to the remedy they provide. The names of Sesotho medicinal plants and the reasoning of the Basotho in general behind the name and the use of each medicinal plant will be discussed in this article. This paper will further preserve and promote the use of Basotho traditional medicines for the future generation.

The medicinal plantFerulahas been widely used in Asian medicine, especially in Uyghur medicine in Xinjiang, China. Given that various substitutes and closely related species have similar morphological characteristics,Ferulais difficult to distinguish based on morphology alone, thereby causing confusion and threatening the safe use ofFerula. In this study, internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) sequences were analyzed and assessed for the accurate identification of two salableFerulaspecies (Ferula sinkiangensisandFerula fukangensis) and eight substitutes or closely related species. Results showed that the sequence length of ITS2 ranged from 451 bp to 45 bp, whereas guanine and cytosine contents (GC) were from 53.6% to 56.2%. A total of 77 variation sites were detected, including 63 base mutations and 14 insertion/deletion mutations. The ITS2 sequence correctly identified 100% of the samples at the species level using the basic local alignment search tool 1 and nearest-distance method. Furthermore, neighbor-joining tree successfully identified the genuine plantsF. sinkiangensisandF. fukangensisfrom their succedaneum and closely related species. These results indicated that ITS2 sequence could be used as a valuable barcode to distinguish Uyghur medicineFerulafrom counterfeits and closely related species. This study may broaden DNA barcoding application in the Uyghur medicinal plant field.
