Piper nigrum leaves were collected from five locations from Kerala within a radius of 150 km, altitudinal variance of 1000m and annual rainfall variance of 1400mm. The extracted Piper nigrum leaf oil was profiled using a GC-MS, Beta Caryophyllene was the only constituent that was present in all the five locations, of which the highest concentration was noted in the high altitude region of Idukk...

We examine the usefulness of various imaging techniques, including optical ow, for measuring plant growth for corn seedlings and Caster Oil Bean leaves. A near-infrared camera, which allows one to measure optical ow in the light and in the dark, is used. For corn seedlings we have already used optical ow to obtain 3D image velocity as a measure of growth performance. We propose two new growth m...

Essential oils from fresh leaves, flowers and dried fruits of Vitex negundo were obtained by hydrodistillation. Using Soxhlet extractor five successive extracts from dried and powdered leaves were also taken. The chemical constituents of essential oil of leaves, flowers and dried fruits were analyzed by GC-FID and GC/MS techniques. Main constituents identified in leaves oil were delta-guaiene, ...

A comparison between heavily browsed and non-browsed Juniperus pinchotii trees revealed that, in contrast to the recent J. ashei study (Adams et al., 2013), the percentage of total volatile leaf oil yields were not significantly different (P > 0.05) between non-browsed trees (1.08%, DM-basis) and browsed trees (0.94%, DM basis). Only one terpene in the mg/g data, α-pinene, was significantly dif...
