Abstract:- Naregamia alata ( W&A) ,a small branching undershrub, used to cure asthma, bronchitis, biliousness, and ulcers. This work covers studies on pharmacognostical and biotechnological studies on the leaves of Naregamia alata (W&A).Pharmacognostical studies were made on macroscopical characters and microscopical characters of leaves, microscopical features of powdered drug, ash values, extractive values, loss on drying, leaf constants, behaviour of crude drug powder with different chemical reagents and its fluorescence analysis. This will help for correct identification of the plant for the future references. Tissue culture studies showed that leaves of Naregamia alata (W&A) can be artificially cultured to plantlets in MS media supplemented with appropriate concentration of IAA and BAP. DNA barcoding studies showed that matK (785 bp), rbcL (553 bp) and ITS (722 bp) can be used as barcodes for the identification of Naregamia alata (W&A) from other species in Meliaceae family.
Key Words:- Naregamia alata, leaves, pharmacognostical and biotechnological studies, (785 bp), rbcL (553 bp), ITS (722 bp), DNA barcoding. |
