Photosynthetic performance, contents of chlorophyll and associated pigments, cellular damage and activities of antioxidative enzymes were investigated in two mustard (Brassica juncea L.) cultivars differing in photosynthetic capacity subjected to cadmium (Cd) stress. Exposure to Cd severely
Increasing contamination and higher enrichment ratio of non-essential heavy metal cadmium (Cd) induce various toxic responses in plants when accumulated above the threshold level. These effects and growth responses are genotype and Cd level dependent. An experiment was conducted to analyze the
Arsenic (As) is an emerging pollutant causing inhibition in growth and development of plants resulting into phytotoxicity. On the other hand, silicon (Si) has been suggested as a modulator in abiotic and biotic stresses that, enhances plant's physiological adaptations in response to several stresses
Soil salinity is one of the major abiotic stress factors that hampers plant growth and productivity by limiting photosynthesis and other related metabolic processes. In this study we investigated whether treatment with proline and/or 24-epibrassinolide (EBL) to two contrasting cultivars of Brassica
The present study was designed to see the effect of exogenous nitric oxide (NO) and abscisic acid (ABA) and their interaction on physiological and biochemical activities in leaves and roots of two Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) cultivars [cv. Pusa Jagannath (PJN) and Varuna (VAR)] exposed to
The present study was carried out to examine salt-induced modulation in growth, photosynthetic characteristics and antioxidant system in two cultivars of Brassica juncea Czern and Coss varieties (Varuna and RH-30). The surface sterilized seeds of these varieties were sown in the soil amended with
The presence of Cadmium (Cd) in the agricultural soils affects horticultural cultivars and constrains the crop productivity. A pot experiment was performed using five cultivars of mustard (Brassica juncea L.) to evaluate the difference in their response to Cd toxicity under greenhouse conditions.
BACKGROUND
Crateva nurvala stem bark is commonly used in Ayruveda in treatment of many renal injuries, e.g., urinary lithiasis, diuretic and nephroprotective. However, its protective effect against renal ischaemia/reperfusion, the major cause of acute kidney injury, has never been studied. Moreover,
Anti-inflammatory phytocompounds from Crateva adansonii DC leaf extracts were identified by GCMS analysis and its anti-inflammatory potential was evaluated by in silico molecular docking study against inflammatory molecular targets. Three different (Aqueous, Methanol and Petroleum
Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern and Coss] is cultivated mainly in the northwestern agroclimatic region of India and suffers huge losses in productivity due to salinization. In an effort to figure out adaptation strategies of Indian mustard to salt stress, we conducted a comparative
The present study was designed to see the influence of selenium (Se) and sulphur (S) in the alleviation of arsenic (As)-induced stress in Brassica juncea plant. Se-induced alterations in physiological and biochemical responses due to deficient S (DS), normal S (NS) and additional S (AS) conditions
The effects of foliar application of proline (20 mM) on growth, physio-biochemical, and yield parameters were assessed in two Brassica juncea (L.) Czern & Coss cultivars, namely, Varuna and RH-30, at different levels (2.8, 4.2, or 5.6 dsm(-1)) of NaCl in soil. At 29 days after sowing (DAS), plants
The present paper deals with the effect of exogenous application of proline as a shotgun approach on growth, photosynthesis, and antioxidative system in 25-day-old plants of two different cultivars of Brassica juncea L. (Varuna and RH-30) under natural conditions. Exogenous application of proline
BACKGROUND
Crateva adansonii is a moderately sized deciduous tree found throughout the tropics especially along the river banks. This study was aimed at the evaluation of the analgesic and antioxidant activities of the methanolic extract of C. adansonii stem-bark.
METHODS
The analgesic activity of

Leaves of Crateva adansonii DC (Capparidaceae), a small bush found in Togo, are widely used in traditional medicine to cure infectious abscesses. Traditional healers of Lomé harvest only budding leaves early in the morning, in specific area in order to prepare their drugs.
OBJECTIVE
The
