Wild edible plants (WEPs) refer to species that are not cultivated or domesticated. WEPs have an important role play in poverty eradication, security of food availability, diversification agriculture, generation income resources, and alleviating malnutrition. In the present study, inventory traditionally used from Udhampur district J&K, India, has been prepared.A systematic extensive ethnobotanical survey was carried out different villages for collection information on WEPs. The data...
Two new species of genus Lactarius from India, sarthalanus (L. subg. Plinthogalus) and L. drassinus Lactarius) are presented with detailed descriptions, line drawings microphotographs. The novelty placement these taxa within the confirmed ITS based phylogeny.
Many stakeholders, from governments to civil society businesses, lack the data they need make informed decisions on biodiversity, jeopardising efforts conserve, restore and sustainably manage nature. Here we review importance of enhancing biodiversity monitoring, assess challenges involved identify potential solutions. Capacity for monitoring needs be enhanced urgently, especially in poorer, high-biodiversity countries where gaps are disproportionately high. Modern tools technologies,...
Laccaria friesii is proposed here as a new species based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of the nuclear rDNA internal transcribed spacer region. A combination molecular data confirmed novelty its placement within genus . This was found in association with Rhododendron arboreum Quercus leucotrichophora characterized by large basidiome (17–90 mm pileus diam.), convex to campanulate central depression, wavy margins, pink fleshy brown distant lamellae, presence...
ABSTRACT Two interesting taxa of genus Melanoleuca have been reported from cultivated lands temperate regions in Uttarakhand Himalaya and Ladakh Himalaya. These are proposed here as deothalensis sp. nov. drassina The novel presented present communication with detailed taxonomic descriptions, photomicrographs, illustrations, nrITS‐based phylogeny.
Strangospora himalayana and S. submoriformis are described as new species from India. Both the have thin, greyish thallus, poorly developed exciple, K–, N– epithecium simple, hyaline, globose ascospores. Further, has a minutely arachnoid hyaline to pale brown ascospores of size 1–2.5 μm, while granular olivaceous measuring 2.5–3 μm. This is first report genus India, collected north-western Himalaya. A detailed description, illustrations, habitat ecology, comparisons with similar members...
Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a common pediatric emergency seen among children between 6 months to 5 years. Most of the ingested FBs are accidentally taken and passed in stools uneventfully, however they may lead complications some children. We present an infant with recurrent pneumonia attributed gastroesophageal reflux due large Tik-Tak hair pin discovered on X-ray abdomen. The child symptomatically improved following endoscopic removal FB complete resolution respiratory symptoms...
Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) has a rich tradition usage wild edible mushrooms (WEMs) for culinary medicinal purposes. But very few studies, restricted to some regions the Territory, have been conducted enlist WEM. District never explored Moreover, quantification traditional knowledge WEM not carried out as yet in J&K. Therefore, present study was district with aims enlisting its usage, finding most used WEM, enumerating consensus species associated knowledge.A total 192...
