Chromosome pairing in polyploid cells.

The homologues in polyploid metaphases of air-dried suspensions of cultured cells are usually seen closely paired as diplochromosomes ("endore duplicated" cells) or unpaired as randomly distributed chromosomes ("poly ploid" cells). More often we find another configuration, a mixture of paired and unpaired chromosomes in the same metaphase, and describe here the conditions under which it appears...

Urginea Nagarjunae Hemadri Et Swahari a New Species of Uliaceae from India (a New Plant Discovery)

A new species of Urginea Steinhill. located in Andhra Pradaah and Tamilnadu (India), namely Urginea negarjunae Hemadri et Swaharl which produces the thickest scape coupled with the largest and closely arranged flowers and nonreflexed tepals among all the Indian species so far recorded under Urginea Steinhill, is described with illustrations. Chromosomal study revealed that the new taxon is not ...

Karyotype and Sex-Chromosome Polymorphism in Nesokia indica, from Iran

Preliminary Phytochemical Screening of Six Medicinal Plants Used as Traditional Medicine

Preliminary screening of phytochemicals is a valuable step, in the detection of the bioactive principles present in medicinal plants and subsequently may lead to drug discovery and development. In the present study, chief phytoconstituents of the six selected medicinal plants of different families were identified in order to relate their presence with bioactivities of the plants. Screening of s...
