ABSTRACT Anatomical studies of Rauvolfia vomitoria was carried out using standard procedure. Upper surface (adaxial) and lower surface (abaxial), showed the following features which include: irregular and polygonal epidermal cell shapes respectively, Anomocytic stomatal type on abaxial surface and none on the adaxial surface. The trichome is absent on both surfaces. The stomatal distribution for […]

ABSTRACT Using standard method of analysis, bioaccumulation  factor of gastropods from Ayadeghe beach showed T. fuscatus. Zn(0.73) >Ni (0.60) >Cr (0.19) >Cd(0.07) > Pb(nil); E. radiata; Zn (0.33) > Cd(0.07) >Cr (0.06) > Ni (0.03) > Pb (Nil). Zn was noticed to have highest B.F and all the value were below 1. Heavy metal pollution

ABSTRACT M. cola is a well known traditional medicinal plants that belongs to the family Malvaceae. The research work is to determine epidermal characteristics of M. cola. The results obtained for the abaxial and adaxial surface were amphistomatic distribution of stomata, anisocytic stomata and the epidermal cell shape was irregular. The identification is commonly based

ABSTRACT Euphorbia hirta is a genus of flowering plants, commonly called spurge; it is also called spurge family (Euphorbiaceae). Leaves of Euphorbia Hirta L. contains secondary metabolite such as alkaloids, diterpenoids, stigmasteron, beta-siteosterol, carboaromatic compounds polyols. Alkaloids and phenolic acids, are major chemical compounds present in stem of Euphorbia hirta. The plant is medicinally important.

ABSTRACT Anatomical studies of Clitoria  Ternatea L.(Fabacea) was carried out using standard procedure. Upper surface (adaxial) and lower surface (abaxial), showed that both features had irregular epidermal cell shapes respectively, amphistomatic stomatal type on both abaxial and adaxial surfaces. The trichome is uniserrate on both surfaces. The stomatal  distribution for both abaxial and adaxial surfaces

ABSTRACT Ixora  chinensis Lam. belong to the Rubiaceae family (Chinese Ixora) and is commonly used traditionally and in folklore medicine in treating various disease. The present study investigated the epidermal characters of Ixora  chinensis leaf. The epidermal studies include present of stomata on the abaxial surface (anomocytic) and absent of stomata on the adaxial surface.
