Ranking the TVCs from highest to lowest NWP for Fe and Zn and under the severe water stressed treatment: Spider flower, Amaranth, Swiss chard and OFSP leaves ranked 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th, respectively. CABI is a registered EU trademark. Data were subjected to descriptive statistics, inferential, and cluster analyses. literature. Xylem. With data becoming available for other polyphenols, these compounds should be included in future studies. Therefore, this study was undertaken to evaluate quantitatively the compositions of phytochemicals and antioxidant properties of acetone, chloroform, methanol and water extracts of different parts of C. gynandra. Flavonoid intakes were estimated, mainly on the basis of the flavonoid concentrations in Finnish foods. Many of the Ayurvedic formulations contain this medicinal plant and is considered as Master of, Emblica officinalis (Amla, EO, and E. officinalis) is one of the most important herbs in the Indian traditional medicine system, especially Ayurveda and also known as the king of all medicinal plants.

Key findings of the project were that these TVCs have the potential of providing more than 50% of the recommended daily allowance for Fe, Zn, and vitamin A. The juice/sap extracted from the leaves is used for management of earache and epilepsy. These contribute to antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, analgesic, anticarcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties (Yang et al., 2008; Ghogare et al., 2009; Moyo et al. Methods: C. gynandra of the Cleomaceae family is an annual herb. C. gynandra is tolerant of salinity with only a slight reduction in plant height resulting from application of a saline solution (75 mM NaCl) for 15 days. Moreover, some laboratories have put on the market new Âyurvedic drugs better suited to the current demand.

Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu, India. Results of this study indicate that under no water and severe water stress, Swiss shard produced the highest (5.09 t ha-1 and 3.96 t ha-1) average raw edible biomass compared to the TVCs because the bulky stems of the latter were regarded as not edible and, therefore, were discarded.

Furthermore, the effect of different biostimulants (under blue and red light) on biochemical content and enzyme activities was tested in seeds of C. gynandra. Three experiments were conducted under a rain-shelter and an open field site (Rooiland) duringthe 2013/14 and 2014/15 seasons at the Agricultural Research Council-Vegetable and Ornamental Plants (ARC-VOP). The cataloguing and identifi-cation of most of the plants used for the preparation of the remedies described in the ancient medical literature was completed in the seventies. The role of these reactive oxygen species in several diseases and the potential antioxidant protective effect of natural compounds on affected tissues are topics of high current interest. Total phenolics, flavonoids, flavanols, proanthocyanidins, tannins, saponins and alkaloids were also investigated.

Wageningen, Netherlands: PROTA Foundation, Backhuys, CTA. Cleome_gynandra is a ANNUAL growing to 1.3 m (4ft 3in). productivity (NWP). The supplemental irrigation treatment (W2) was applied only if it did not rain for a period of 4 weeks in order to revive the plants. Amount or doses of the vegetable extracts used were also noted. Suitable for: light (sandy) and medium (loamy) soils and prefers well-drained soil. It is a multi-purpose wild vegetable and one of the staple foods in most of the countries. A clear understanding of the post-transcriptional mechanisms that regulate gene expression central to the onset of C4 photosynthesis is required before aiming to transform C3 crops into C4 crops (Fankhauser and Aubry, 2017).

Tolerating many soil types providing they are deep, well drained and with a pH range of 5.5 to 7, plants grow well on rubbish dumps and in soils amended with manure (Chweya and Mnzava, 1997). The sap obtained by pounding the young leaves of spider plant is administered into ears, eyes and nostrils to reduce earache and to treat epilepsy. This was proven byhigher coefficient of determination, lower root mean square error (RMSE), and RMSE-standard deviation ratio. Spider plants (Gynandropsis gynandra, L.
