Totally six different types of ice creams were prepared from soymilk, pumpkin seed's milk as whole and their blends with or without addition of pineapple pulp. With the 9-point hedonic scale products were evaluated for their appearance, flavour, mouth feel and over all acceptability in which most of the ice creams were liked moderately to very much and two ice creams were most acceptable, that is, whole pumpkin seed milk with pineapple pulp and soya milk and pumpkin seed milk (50% + 50%) blended milk ice cream with pineapple pulp. The nutritional analysis of two most acceptable ice creams indicated that protein and fat value was found to be excellent and calcium, iron, vitamin C content were also found in good amount in comparison to standard cow's milk ice cream.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":"1 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":"131056720","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}

Homegardens are important component of rural socioeconomy in northeast India and are preserved through traditional wisdom of local communities. Homegardens mimic forest structures and harbour rich diversity of cultivated as well as natural floral composition helping in conservation of important lichens of the region which hold in it tremendous potential of ethnolichenological use for present and future. The present work enumerates 68 lichens representing 22 genera and 11 families found in randomly selected homegardens in an area of about 28 km2 around Panchgram. Out of these 68 lichens, 10 exhibit foliose growth form and remaining 58 lichens exhibit crustose growth form. Graphidaceae is the dominant family representing 22 species followed by Pyrenulaceae (17 species) and Arthoniaceae (10 species). Pyrenula (17 species) is the dominant genus in the region followed by Arthonia with 8 species and Phaeographis and Graphis with 7 species each. The common homegarden lichens Parmotrema tinctorium, Parmotrema saccatilobum and Graphis scripta which are found during the study have ethnolichenological uses recorded in various literature studies. Ethnolichenological studies are very scarce in northeast India. Owing to rich ethnic and floristic diversity in the region, present study suggests the role of homegardens in conserving lichens which might have unexplored traditional use by indigenous communities and needs proper documentation.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":"232 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":"123980801","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}

It is estimated that 13 to 18 species exist. The oil derived from Mentha is of great economical use. Natural occurring marine polysaccharides such as sodium alginate, chitosan, carrageenan after undergoing depolymerisation by different techniques have shown positive influence on growth, morphological and yield attributes of plants. In this study, the gamma-degraded polysaccharides like sodium alginate and chitosan have been applied to check the effect on growth, physiological and essential oil composition. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the influence of different doses of irradiated sodium alginate (ISA) and chitosan on the growth, physiological and biochemical attributes as well as essential oil composition in Mentha arvensis L. A single dose of ISA was used (80 mg L−1) in combination with six doses of irradiated chitosan (20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120 mg L−1). It was found from the results that the treatment T4 (ISA80+ IC80) proved to be optimum and enhanced most of the growth parameters. The plant height was recorded higher by 16.88%, fresh weight increase by 41.62%, and dry weight by 31.74% over the control, at the treatment T4 (ISA80+ IC80) respectively. Similar trend was noticed while analysing the physiological and biochemical parameters where the total chlorophyll content and carotenoid content was increased by 40.25% and 37.30%. The carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity increased by 16.26 %.Total nitrogen (N) content showed the maximum increase by 27.60% P content by 14.34% and K content by almost 5.01% over the control plants. The combined treatment (ISA80+ IC80) enhanced the oil yield (as revealed by the Gas Chromatography GC/GC-MS (Mass Spectroscopy) analysis) by 2.89% in menthol content, 39.74% in menthol content, Lmenthone content by 80.05%, L-menthone yield by 319.28%, isomenthone content by 31.73%, menthylacetate content by 36.32%, menthylacetate yield by 200% over the control in M. arvensis L.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":"78 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":"126169161","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}

However, what is being witnessed today are the changes which threaten to undermine future progress with several (ecological, economical, social and cultural) dimensions of un-sustainability and fragility to global and local ecosystems. Poverty, water and air pollution, soil degradation, loss of biodiversity, global warming and many other forms of environmental degradation have raised doubts about the wisdom of the pattern of development which is being currently pursued. The World Commission on Environment and Development [1987] hence stressed the importance of ensuring that today's economic progress is not at the expense of tomorrow's developmental prospects.Degradation of land is a vital issue throughout the world with the particular references to India as it a threat to agricultural productivity. Agroforestry, a land use system is being popular in many countries to protect the land from various types of degradation. Studies have proved that agroforestry can check soil erosion to some extent, increase soil fertility, reduce salinity; alkalinity, acidity and desertification etc. ultimately improve soil health which keeps the land suitable for agricultural production.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":"33 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":"126856001","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}
