ABSTRACT The study on the physicochemical parameters of borehole water collected close and far away from soakway was carried out using standard analytical methods. The result of the study revealed that the values obtained were higher in the water sample obtained close to soakaway than the sample collected far away from soakaway. Although some of

ABSTRACT A taxonomic study of Euphorbia milli was conducted in search of useful and stable anatomical characters for the identification of the leaf of Euphorbia milli showed features of polygonal, straight, irregular, undulate, unicellular and anomocytic stomata. The epidermis is amphistomatic. The abaxial epidermal cell length, Cell width, epidermal length and stomata width was 50.72,

ABSTRACT In traditional systems of medicine, different parts of Ocimum have been recommended for the treatment of bronchitis, malaria, diarrhea, dysentery, skin diseases and insect bite. Epidermal characters play a vital role in plant identification and classification. In present study, comparative epidermal evaluation was performed for the flesh leaves of selected species of Ocimum such
