Abstract The Pollen morphology of subfamily Caryophylloideae (Caryophyllaceae) from different phytogeographical region Pakistan has been evaluated. In this research, 16 species belong to 6 genera have studied using light (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for both qualitative quantitative characters. Different palyno‐morphological features were observed including; pollen ornamentation, pore echini arrangement, echinidensity, number pori, size polar equatorial diameter, P/E ratio,...
Abstract Seed micromorphology of 13 species, belonging to four genera subfamily Alsinoideae (Caryophyllaceae) were investigated with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), in order assess their diagnostic significance at generic level and provide additional evidence on species delimitation, as well correct identification phylogenetic position. Genera exhibit great variation ultrastructure a high diversity novel micromorphological characters observed. Variation seed shape, color, hilum,...
Abstract Soil pollution with heavy metals has grown to be a big hassle, leading the loss in farming production particularly developing countries like Pakistan, where no proper channel is present for irrigation and extraction of these toxic metals. The study aims ameliorate damages caused by metal ions (Hg-Mercury) on rapeseed ( Brassica napus L.) via growth regulator (α-tocopherol 150 mg/L) thermopriming technique at 4 °C 50 maintain plant agronomical physiological characteristics. In pot...
Abstract Recent advances in nanoscience and nanotechnology have revolutionized the medical field, particularly treatment prevention of disease. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are considered one best supreme most important nanomaterials with a variety compulsive nanomaterial having diverse array multifunctional bioapplications. The current study focuses on green biosynthesis AgNPs using polysaccharides extracted from Olea europaea leaves. synthesized were thoroughly analyzed characterized...
For the robust identification of taxonomically complex fern family like Athyriaceae, light and scanning electron microscopy is significance implications. This article present first microscopic investigation foliar micromorphology 3 genera 10 species belonging to Athyriaceae namely, Athyrium, Deparia, Diplazium were collected from different localities in Malakand Division, Northern Pakistan. In study we compare all using standard protocols microcopy (LM) microscopy. Qualitative...
The present study is insights into foliar epidermal anatomy for characterizing clades, and their utility in taxonomic segregation of certain species Pteridaceae from Northern Pakistan. leaf 10 representing four genera were examined using light scanning electron microscope. A micromorphological matrix was constructed eight qualitative 12 quantitative characters. unweighted pair group method with arithmetic means principal components analysis statistical performed to test the validity...
ABSTRACT One of the main difficulties in nanotechnology is development an environmentally friendly, successful method producing nanoparticles from biological sources. Silver‐doped zinc oxide (Ag‐ZnO NPs), with antibacterial and antioxidant properties, were produced using Adiantum venustum extract as a green technique. Fresh A. plants gathered, then their bioactive elements extracted cold water processed into nanoparticles. The goal was to develop Ag‐ZnO NPs (nanoparticles) for medical...
Abstract Several studies have demonstrated the usefulness of leaf epidermal, and spore morphological characters in taxonomy genus Asplenium . However, works on Pakistani species are not existent. With objective to verify efficacy epidermal traits, epidermis morphology nine occurring Malakand division was studied. The spores were studied under light microscope (LM) scanning electron (SEM), whereas for anatomy, LM used. monolete, ellipsoidal shape, equatorial polar diameter ranges between 28.3...
This study aims to analyze the phytochemical and antimicrobial-related assays including antibacterial, antifungal, antipellicle, antibiofilm potential of root an alpine medicinal plant (Arnebia euchroma (Royle) I.M.Johnst).Ethanolic, methyl acetate, chloroform, aqueous extracts parts A. were prepared.The active metabolites part evaluated both qualitatively quantitatively by GC-MS HPLC techniques, using ethanolic extract.The antimicrobial was investigated crude extract, fractions, AgNPs...
Background: An ethnobotanical survey was conducted in Chamla Valley, District Buner, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (Pakistan) to document the traditional medicinal knowledge held by indigenous people on local plant species. The study area has a diversified flora with remarkable potential for uses. However, ethnomedicinal studies state such information lack. present research is contribution fill this gap of knowledge. Methods: Data were collected from different socio-ethnic groups including aged people,...
Purple blotch disease is a major fungal of Allium cepa L. plants which caused by the fungus Alternaria porri. The best conditions for growth porri are temperatures between 22 °C and 25 relatively high humidity. Hydrotime, Thermal Time, Hydrothermal Time models were used to measure different parameters seed germination; therefore, we them interactive effects temperature water potential on germination conidia laboratory experiments carried out at five constant temperatures, 5 30 °C, potentials...
