Commercial standard plucked tea leaves were assayed to determine antioxidants activity and related phytochemical constituents. DPPH was used to determine the antioxidant properties of bud+leaf (B+L), bud+two leaves (B+2L), bud+three leaves (B+3L) and matured leaves (L). Subsequently, total phenolics, flavonols and hydrolysable tannins were estimated using standard methods. The result showed that free-radicals scavenging potentiality and chemical composition varies significantly at different growing conditions and leaf maturation. Statistical analysis showed significant relation between antioxidant and some phytochemical composition of dry tea leaves, among which phenolics (R2 =0.904, P< 0.001), tannins (R2= 0.567, P< 0.05) and flavonols (R2= 0.314, P< 0.05) bear significant correlation. Soil physicochemical parameters like pH (R2=0.537, P< 0.05), nitrogen (R2=0.618, P< 0.01), K2O (R2=0.106, insignificant), P2O5 (R=0.730, P< 0.01), S (R2=0.157, insignificant) and soil moisture (R2=0.745, P< 0.01) influence free-radical scavenging activity in tea leaves. Antioxidant quality of tea varies with maturation stages of leaves and the pattern is specific for a selected varietes. From our observation it may be concluded that antioxidant quality is dependent on some fertility parameters of soil and maturation of leaf. These results suggests that appropriate agronomic practices and proper choice of plucking may help to preserve the tea antioxidant quality.","PeriodicalId":122617,"journal":{"name":"NBU Journal of Plant Sciences","volume":"30 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114105420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rhizome of some edible cultivars are consumed as food and herbal medicines in rural areas. The presence of total phenols, flavonoids and DPPH scavenging activity of both cold and hot extracts and their correlations have been studied for eleven cultivars of Canna spp. Antioxidants, quercetin and gallic acid equivalence of phenolic compounds were determined spectrophotometrically. It has been found that total phenol, flavonoids and DPPH free radical scavenging activity were higher in hot extracts than in cold. Further studies gave an idea about the correlation between phenol and flavonoid contents of both cold and hot extracts, but both the above said parameters were not correlated with DPPH scavenging activity. Finally it can be concluded that higher DPPH scavenging activities in all these Canna cultivars may not be due to the presence of endogenous phenols and flavonoids but these may be due to any other phytochemicals.","PeriodicalId":122617,"journal":{"name":"NBU Journal of Plant Sciences","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123868503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Being one of major used and disposed material from a wide source, traces of BPA have been diagnosed from everywhere. BPA has been identified as an endocrine disruptor compound (EDC) for most of animals, due to structural similarity with hormones, and hinders many physiological functions. This review work focuses on the status of BPA in water bodies of different parts of the world. The review also focuses on the impact of BPA on aquatic plants and its possible remediation. Sub-standardly imposed policies by several countries and failure of water resource governance are rapidly leading towards incautious release of plastics and other BPA associated waste products in environments. BPA pollution affects humans, animals and even plants. Among the aquatic flora, most affected plant groups are the algal groups and macrophytes. At lower BPA concentration, many beneficial bacterial strains also show sensitivity whereas some other strains are known to metabolize or remove BPA from the water bodies. In this connection, several aquatic macrophytes have also been reported to contribute in the removal of BPA from the aquatic ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":122617,"journal":{"name":"NBU Journal of Plant Sciences","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133784054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The antibacterial activity was assayed using agar-disc diffusion method against seven bacterial species. Their total flavonoids content (TFC) and ferric reducing power (RP) were also evaluated. Herb extracts with high TFC exhibited a good antibacterial activity against the bacteria at low concentrations. The Gram-positive bacteria were more sensitive to the tested extracts than the Gram-negative ones. While Staphylococcus aureus was maximally inhibited, Escherichia coli was most resistant. Against each bacterium, antibacterial activity was positively correlated (r = 0.60-0.87) with TFC of the tested extracts. Positive correlations were also obtained between antibacterial and antioxidant activities (r = 0.60-0.96) as well as between TFC and antioxidant activity (r = 0.91) of the extracts.

The processes of evolution worked in this part of the Himalayas almost in an undisturbed condition for millions of years assisted by much varied but extremely favourable climatic conditions and has produced innumerable new species, a good proportion of which are still endemic to the region. The vegetation structure and the flora in different parts of this region have developed as per the local climatic make-up. So, when almost tropical vegetation is found on outer low altitude areas, it is sub-alpine to alpine to arctic in high altitude areas especially above 3000 m. Terai and Duars are located at the feet of the hills are maintaining a contiguous rich vegetation. The vegetation scenario in this region is changing very fast during last three or four decades mostly due to anthropogenic activities. Extension of civilisation along with the population explosion lead to the increase in forest extraction, rate of modification of floristic composition, pollution content, soil erosion, plant introduction, clearing of natural vegetation etc. There is evidence that the force of evolution is still active here but the lack of proper corridor (along with other factors mentioned above) for plant migration will certainly cause the weakening of numerous local species and the rate of extinction of species will increase in a logarithmic scale. Like any other part of this planet here also it appears to be one nearly impossible task to save the local biodiversity. Just the declaration of some Protected Areas is not enough. Activities through ecotourism are also affecting the conservation practices. Unless we succeed to conserve the natural vegetation on this planet the entire biosphere will be dead within next 100 years.","PeriodicalId":122617,"journal":{"name":"NBU Journal of Plant Sciences","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115115246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
