ipomoea reniformis roxb. (convolvulaceae) is a small, weedy herb used for the management of cardiac problems in traditional systems of medicine in india and pakistan. objective of the present study is to investigate the hypotensive, diuretic and angiotensin converting enzyme (ace) inhibitory activities of the aqueous-methanol (30:70) crude extract of the dried aerial parts of i. reniformis (ir....

OBJECTIVE To investigate the antibacterial activity and phytochemical screening of the aqueous, methanol and petroleum ether leaf extracts of Merremia emarginata (M. emarginata). METHODS The antibacterial activity of leaf extracts of M. emarginata were evaluated by agar well diffusion method against four selected bacterial species. RESULTS The presence of tannins, flavonoids, amino acids, s...

Interactions among the component members of different symbioses are not well studied. For example, leaf-cutting ants maintain an obligate symbiosis with their fungal garden, while the leaf material they provide to their garden is usually filled with endophytic fungi. The ants and their cultivar may interact with hundreds of endophytic fungal species, yet little is known about these interactions...

Merremia peltata is a species with uncertain status in the island nations of the Pacific region. It has been designated introduced and invasive in some countries whereas it is considered native in others. Recent increase in its abundance across some island landscapes have led to calls for its designation as an invasive species of environmental concern with biological control being suggested as ...

Recent advances in molecular phylogenetics the family Convolvulaceae Juss. (particularly formerly recognized tribe Merremieae) have brought new insights on generic delimitation. Therefore, many species were transferred across genera to accommodate classification. However, additional morphological and analyses are still needed address affinities position of some included Merremia Dennst. ex Endl...
