High-throughput transcriptome provides an unbiased approach for understanding the genetic basis and gene functions in response to different conditions. Here we sequenced RNA-seq libraries derived from a Bombax ceiba L. system under a controlled experiment. As a known medicinal and ornamental plant, B. ceiba grows mainly in hot-dry monsoon rainforests in Southeast Asia and Australia. Due to the ...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Bombax ceiba (Malvaceae), commonly known as silk cotton tree, is a multipurpose tree species of tropical forests. Novel expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeat (EST-SSR) markers were developed and characterized for the species using transcriptome analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 33 new EST-SSR markers were developed for B. ceiba, of which 13 showed polymorph...

UNLABELLED Phylogenetic trees with hundreds of thousands of leaves are now being inferred from sequence data, posing significant challenges for visualization and exploratory analysis. Image data supplying valuable context for species in trees (and cues for exploring them) are becoming increasingly available in biodiversity databases and elsewhere but have rarely been built into tree visualizati...

The present paper is an attempt to assess the credibility of various folk claims on medicinal uses of Bombax ceiba L. in view of scientific studies done so far. Almost all parts of the plant are widely used by tribal communities for gastrointestinal and skin diseases, gynecological and urino-genital disorders, general debility, diabetes and impotence. There are direct evidences of scientific va...

To determine the significance of germination on phytochemical constituents and non-enzymatic antioxidant activities of Ceiba pentandra seed extracts. Phytochemicals and antioxidant activities of raw and germinating seeds of Ceiba pentandra were estimated by different methods. The levels of phytochemical constituents were influenced by germination and increased except alkaloids and tannins, whic...
