Plants are the most important source of biological compounds that used to achieve activity. The originating crude extracts plants is broadly as therapeutic drugs treat various infectious damages. present study was arranged investigate potential Alkanna tinctoria Tausch, roots extract, collected from district Bannu, Pakistan in contradiction human pathogenic infections, resistant and antioxidant...

The antibacterial activity of Wrightia tinctoria (Roxb.) R. Br. callus extract was studied against selected pathogenic bacterial strains, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis by Agar disc diffusion method. Among the three solvents and water were used , methanol extract of callus showed higher inhibition zone against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (27 mm)...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Lobed leaves are considered selectively advantageous in conditions of high irradiance. However, most studies have involved woody species, with only a few considering the role of leaf lobation in herbaceous rosette species. In this study, it is hypothesized that, in addition to its adaptive value in high light, leaf lobation may add to the function of petioles as vertical spa...

Bacterial leaf blight is one of the major diseases in rice and affects yields. Thus, various methods have been applied to protect rice from this disease. Here, we show systemic translocation of the human drug niclosamide (5-chloro-N-(2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl)2-hydroxybenzamide) in rice and its long-term effect on prevention of rice leaf blight. The development of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae-ind...

Let E be an elliptic curve over Q, with L-function LE(s). For any primitive Dirichlet character χ, let LE(s, χ) be the L-function of E twisted by χ. In this paper, we use random matrix theory to study vanishing of the twisted L-functions LE(s, χ) at the central value s = 1. In particular, random matrix theory predicts that there are infinitely many characters of order 3 and 5 such that LE(1, χ)...

A total of 215 root-nodule bacteria were isolated from 3 medicinal legumes including Indigofera tinctoria, Pueraria mirifica and Derris elliptica Benth. naturally grown in 16 provinces of Thailand. The isolates were evaluated for DNA polymorphism using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Isolates generated 92 identical RAPD profiles, indicating highly significant genetic diversi...

The present investigation aims at assessing the hepatoprotective effect of triterpene fraction isolated from the stem bark of Wrightia tinctoria (containing lupeol, β-amyrin and β-sitosterol) on CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity in the rat. CCl4 (1.5 mg/kg, i.p) is a potent hepatotoxic agent which causes peroxidative degeneration of membrane lipids with the potential outcome of fatty degeneration. Th...
