Evaluation of four botanicals Vernonia amygdalina L., Bryophyllum pinnatum L., Eucalyptus globules Labill and Ocimum gratissimum Kurz (Clocimum) for chemical and nutritional properties was conducted at Ago Iwoye in South-western Nigeria. The results from the investigation showed that V. amygdalina contained large quantity of Thiamine, Pyridoxine, Ascorbic acid, Glycine, Cysteine and Casein hydr...

abstract: influence of both dietary and bath administration of eucalyptus globules labill was evaluated on some immunological variables of common carp (cyprinus carpio) under temperature less than optimum in order to determine stimulatory effect of the essential oils. fish weighing 30-35 g were bathed or fed with different doses of 30, 60 and 120 |m|l/l or mg/kg feed for a period of 8 days. ser...

India’s forest cover was estimated to be about 67.701 million hectares or 22.8 percent of the country’s land area and other wooded lands comprise of 4.11 million ha (UNEP Report, 2000). The dense forests in almost all the major states has been reduced and forest degradation is a matter of serious concern now. Principal plantation species such as Acacia spp., Eucalyptus spp. and Tectona grandis ...

Experiments were conducted to study the bioefficacies of different plant/weed derivatives that affect the development of the pulse beetle, Callosobruchus maculates F. (Coleoptera: Bruchidae) fed on black gram, Vigna mungo, seeds. Plant extracts, powder, ash and oil from nishinda (Vitex negundo L.), eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globules Labill.), bankalmi (Ipomoea sepiaria K.), neem (Azadirachta indic...

Eucalyptus globulus Labill. has been used in Spain for decades as a cellulose source for the paper and textile industry. Since 1997, Sniace group has tested new provenances and families from 29 different Eucalyptus species to explore their capacity for biomass and bioenergy production. Plus trees for growth, wood quality, rooting capacity and tolerance to Mycosphaerella sp have been identified ...
