Abstract

Background: Cassia auriculata, L., is an imperative medicinal and traditional neutral colour leaf hair dye yielding in India. This is a multipurpose and indigenous, perennial leguminous shrub and widely used as traditional medicine to cure diabetics by the rural peoples. Tanner’s cassia is also used as neutral henna and its yields natural golden blonde colouring to hair through the dried leaf powder. Young buds are used for yellow colour dye extraction by textile industries. Screening of high tolerance and best performing genotypes is highly essential in this imperative woody legume shrub to rehabilitate the mass erosion prone gullied and ravine lands for productive purpose of the wasteland and degraded lands. Methods: Thirty different accessions of Cassia auriculata were assembled and numbered from CA-1 to CA-30 from arid and semi-arid regions of Rajasthan (India). The experimental trial was conducted at ICAR-IISWC, Research Centre, Kota-Rajasthan, India during 2019-2022. After evaluation, CA-4 genotype was selected as an elite genotype. The elite genotype was used for high density plantation development with resource conservation for green cover development in non-arable ravine lands. Result: Genetic variation studies of Cassia auriculata indicated that considerable and significant variability, abundant morphometric variations in assembled genotype progenies. Further, genetic divergence analysis was also revealed that nine clusters segregated from 30 genotypes. Thirty genotypes were grouped into nine clusters according overall performance with geographical identity. Finally, C. auriculata (CA-4) genotype was identified and selected as an elite genotype based on its overall superiority in terms of plant growth, higher green biomass, leaf litter biomass, more number branching behaviour and plant coppicing ability which are directly relevant and imperative in soil erosion control, resource conservation and potential rehabilitation effect in resource poor dry regions of non-arable lands.

黑木香(Cassia auriculata, L.)地方种质遗传分化研究Roxb。，通过筛选和利用Chambal峡谷修复

背景:木耳决明子(Cassia auriculata, L.)是一种重要的药用和传统的中性色叶染发剂，产自印度。这是一种多用途的土著多年生豆科灌木，被农村人民广泛用作治疗糖尿病的传统药物。坦纳的决明子也被用作中性的指甲花，它通过干燥的叶粉给头发带来天然的金黄色。嫩芽被纺织工业用于提取黄色染料。筛选高耐受性和最佳表现的基因型对这种重要的木本豆科灌木来说是非常必要的，以恢复易受大量侵蚀的沟壑和沟壑地，使其成为荒地和退化土地的生产目的。方法:从印度拉贾斯坦邦干旱和半干旱地区收集30种不同的木耳决明子，编号为CA-1 ~ CA-30。该试验于2019-2022年在印度Kota-Rajasthan研究中心ICAR-IISWC进行。经评价，选择CA-4基因型为精英基因型。优良基因型可用于非耕地沟壑区的高密度人工林开发和资源保护。结果:黑木香的遗传变异研究表明，组合基因型后代具有相当大的变异和显著的形态变异。此外，遗传差异分析还显示，从30个基因型中分离出9个聚类。30个基因型根据总体表现和地理特征分为9个聚类。最后，基于CA-4基因型在植物生长、较高的绿色生物量、凋落叶生物量、较多的分枝行为和植物适应能力等方面的综合优势，对非耕地资源贫乏干旱区的土壤侵蚀控制、资源保护和潜在的恢复效应有直接关系和必要性，鉴定并选择其为精英基因型。
