Stomatal parameters in nine species of Corchorus (Tiliaceae)

Pharmacognostical standardization of Corchorus depressus (L.) Stocks (Tiliaceae)- A promising ethnomedicinal plant

Corchorus depressus (L.) Stocks syn. C. depressus (L.) C. Chr. (Tiliaceae), commonly known as Baphuli, traditionally used in pain, fever, sexual dysfunction and to treat gonorrhea. In the present investigation, various pharmacognostical standards for C. depressus have been established. Collection of plant material was carried out and its morphological, physico-chemical and phytochemical studies...

Comparison of photosynthetic efficiency and stomatal distribution in detached leaves of four rose species

Effect of Corchorus Olitorius Extract On Haematological and Plasma Biochemical Parameters in Male Albino Rats

The effect of oral administration of aqueous extract of Corchorus olitorius (AECO) at doses of 250 mg/kg BW, 500 mg/kg BW and 750 mg/kg BW on haematological and plasma biochemical parameters in male albino rats were investigated. The extract was administered on daily basis for 30 days and blood samples were collected for haematological and plasma biochemical assays. Treatment of rats for 30 day...

Use of Bhuphali (Corchorus Fascienlatus)

Reactive Oxygen Species in the Regulation of Stomatal Movements.

Guard cells form stomatal pores that optimize photosynthetic carbon dioxide uptake with minimal water loss. Stomatal movements are controlled by complex signaling networks that respond to environmental and endogenous signals. Regulation of stomatal aperture requires coordinated activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating enzymes, signaling proteins, and downstream executors such as ion...
