Givotia rottleriformis Griff. is an economically important dioecious tree species known for the softwood used in making toys. Knowledge of genetic variation in a dioecious tree species is important for devising strategies for its successful management and conservation. Studies were conducted to examine the genetic variation in Givotia plants using RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) analysi...

Givotia rottleriformis has been used in the indigenous systems of medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases like rheumatism and psoriasis. In order to evaluate this information, antipsoriatic activity of three flavonoids isolated from the ethanol extract of the bark of Givotia rottleriformis were investigated using in-vitro and in-vivo model, namely Rutin (I), Luteolin-7-O-β-D-Glucuro...

Gallic acid (GA) and its derivative methyl gallate (MG) are well studied plant phenolics. They have exhibited anticancer effects in several cancer cell lines. However, the presence of GA/MG in the seed coats of Givotia rottleriformis and their inhibitory effect on human epidermoid carcinoma (A431) skin cancer cells were not reported. In this study we have isolated and chemically characterized t...
