Micropropagation studies on some Rare medicinal Plants: A suitable method for plant propagation
Price 62.00 - 69.79 USD
Increase in the number of people with poor health has made the alternative medical practitioners and pharmaceutical companies to exploit many important medicinal plants. Among these, some rare medicinal plants are also under severe threat due to unscientific management practices, ever increasing demand for its phytochemicals, poor seed viability and over exploitation of the plant parts like bark, flowers, seeds etc., which has resulted in the dwindling of population of RET plants in the wild. By considering the promising medicinal important and its limited distribution, an efficient and reproducible method of micro propagation through shoot tip, nodal and inter nodal explants of six medicinally important rare species has been developed. The book have detailed information on the protocol for the multiplication of some medicinally promising plants. This direct method would be highly useful for the conservation of this vulnerable species from extinction.
