Book Description
This study is based upon the collections made over more than 30 years prior to 1943 by Ralph Steward at Rawalpindi in northwestern India. It was in 1911, as a young instructor there, that Steward commenced the gathering of specimens, & in 1912 that he made his first trip into Kashmir. Since then he had been repeatedly into the Himalayas, spending vacations in Kashmir & collecting in adjacent territory north to Baltistan & east to Ladakh; he traversed the mountains of Lahul & Kulu, & also summered at Landour above Dehra Dun. Author Pennell made Stewart¿s acquaintance in 1914 & 1915. Pennell asked that on his return to India he would pay particular attention to the Scrophulariaceae, a request that Stewart amply answered. 25 plates.

Immunity Boosting Medicinal Plants of the Western Himalayas
Author: Ajay Sharma
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 981199501X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 615
Book Description
This book presents a comprehensive guide to traditional immunity-boosting medicinal plants of the Himalayas, their traditional uses, phytochemistry, pharmacology, diversity, conversation, biotechnology, toxicology, as well as future prospective. All the chapters cover the latest advances in ethnobotany, phytochemistry, biochemistry, and biotechnology. The book offers a valuable asset for researchers and graduate students of chemistry, botany, biotechnology, microbiology, and the pharmaceutical sciences. The main purpose of the present book is to draw on the rich culture, folklore, and biodiversity of immunity-boosting medicinal plants of the Western Himalayas, with particular emphasis on the Indian Trans-Himalayan and Western Himalayan region. All the plants included in the present book are extensively used by the local tribes and people for their health-promoting properties from ancient times. This book will be a substantial contribution to the knowledge of the region and the country. Also, the book will be very useful to scientists, graduates, and undergraduates, along with researchers in the fields of natural products, herbal medicines, ethnobotany, pharmacology, chemistry, and biology. Further, it is an equally significant resource for a person working in different traditional medicinal systems; doctors (especially those engaged in Ayurveda, Chinese traditional medicinal system, Amchi, and allopathy); the pharmaceutical industry (for drug design and synthesis); biochemistry and biotechnology sciences; and the agricultural sciences.

Bibliography on Seed Morphology
Author: Hans Arne Jensen
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9789054104506
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
Seeds are a vital part of life on earth. They are fundamental for plant reproduction, and many seeds play an important role in the diet of man and domestic and wild animals. Knowledge of the appearance of seeds - seed morphology - is of great importance to botany and seed identification in relation to: seed setting, quarantine work, forensic work, seed poisening, studies of seed dispersal, seed banks and archaeological studies.;This bibliography contains 3775 references and is divided in two parts: handbooks, and articles and monographs. In the latter the bibliographical reference is supplemented by information of importance to seed identificaiton: genera mentioned in articles, keys, descriptions, drawings, photograph, scanning electron micrographs, anatomy and chemical methods. The index of authors contains the names of an extensive number of authors, cited in the bibliography, and in the index of genera more than 3900 genera, described in one or more of the publications are cited.

Weed Flora of Kashmir Valley
Author: M.K. Kaul
Publisher: Scientific Publishers
ISBN: 9388449614
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
The study of weeds -their identity, habitat, morphology and life history; have assumed great importance recently, especially so in India. In Kashmir their importance is all the more greater, since local economy is practically dependent upon the crops grown in limited summer season. The book is practically the first definitive work in the subject and is specially indispensable for the Kashmir region. The author has presented a weed flora of agricultural crops in and around the valley. The valley of Kashmir which is endowed with great scenic beauty, is also known since ancient times for specialised crops, i.e., saffron and vegetables grown on floating islands. Proper keys for identification and important phenological data has been provided. There are a number of new records for Kashmir and some for the country as a whole. The book will be useful to the students of botany, amateur collectors and agriculturists.
