Podophyllum hexandrum, commonly known as Himalayan Mayapple, is a plant native to the Himalayan region. It contains the compound podophyllotoxin, which has been used for centuries in traditional medicine and forms the basis for modern anticancer drugs. Podophyllotoxin inhibits cell replication and is the precursor for semi-synthetic drugs used to treat cancers like testicular cancer and lung cancer. While podophyllotoxin shows promise, its total synthesis is expensive, so research focuses on improving extraction from P. hexandrum and developing new derivatives with better solubility and fewer side effects than existing drugs like etoposide.

As pteridófitas são plantas vasculares que possuem vasos condutores de seiva, mas não formam sementes. Elas se distribuem nos filos Pteridophyta e Lycopodiophyta e se caracterizam por possuir xilema e floema bem diferenciados para o transporte de seiva. Sua reprodução ocorre tanto de forma assexuada quanto sexuada através da formação e dispersão de esporos.
There are two main types of fruits - simple fruits which develop from a single ovary, and aggregate/multiple fruits which develop from multiple ovaries or flowers. Simple fruits can be fleshy like berries, drupes, and pomes, or dry like legumes, follicles, capsules, achenes, and nuts. Fleshy fruits like berries become soft and juicy, while a drupe has a hard stone or pit surrounding its seed. A pome is an accessory fruit with multiple carpels fused together. Dry fruits either open at maturity to release seeds like legumes and follicles, or stay closed like achenes and nuts.
This document discusses the potential of the fungal genus Xylaria as a source of bioactive secondary metabolites with various applications. It summarizes research on the diversity of Xylaria species, the chemical compounds isolated from different Xylaria such as xylarighan, orthosporin, and xylarinic acid. The document also describes experiments showing that extracts from the endophytic fungus Xylaria sp. KC405623 exhibited broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against drug-resistant pathogens and cytotoxic effects against human cancer cell lines. It concludes that Xylaria represents an underexplored source of pharmaceutical compounds worthy of further study.

Vascular plants contain transport tissues called xylem and phloem that allow movement of water and nutrients throughout the plant. They are divided into seedless vascular plants like ferns and seed vascular plants like gymnosperms and angiosperms. Key structures include roots that absorb water and nutrients, stems that provide support, and leaves, which are the primary site of photosynthesis and have adaptations like stomata to regulate gas exchange while preventing water loss. Growth occurs through meristem tissue at the tips of roots and shoots and laterally along stems.
Plants are an essential part of the ecosystem. Every life on the earth is directly or indirectly dependent on plants. Among the different parts of a plant, the leaf is the most essential.
The leaf has two surfaces, an upper adaxial and lower abaxial side. Mesophyll tissue between the epidermis layers is made of parenchyma cells and can be palisade or spongy. Palisade cells are rod-shaped and located toward the adaxial side where most photosynthesis occurs, while spongy cells have larger air spaces and are located abaxially. Veins contain vascular bundles that transport water and nutrients throughout the leaf. Dicot leaves typically have a dorsiventral mesophyll structure with distinct palisade and spongy layers, while monocot leaves have a uniform mesophyll type. Adaptations like thick cuticles and sunken stomata help xer
The kidneys are located in the lower back and filter blood to produce urine. Each kidney contains nephrons, the functional units that filter blood in the glomerulus and produce urine in the renal tubules. Urine passes through the ureters to the bladder for storage then excretion. The kidneys excrete metabolic waste like urea and salts to maintain homeostasis as well as regulating water balance and blood volume through urine production.

A seed contains an embryo with a radicle and plumule, stored food materials, and a protective seed coat. Seeds come in many shapes and sizes, from dust-like orchid seeds to large double coconuts. The seed coat protects the embryo and acts as a barrier, regulating gas exchange and environmental cues to trigger germination. Within the seed coat is the embryo, consisting of a short axis connecting two cotyledons which store food and nourish the seedling initially. Seeds are categorized as endospermous if they contain persisting endosperm tissue, or non-endospermous if they lack endosperm.
Bryophyte is a traditional name used to refer to all embryophytes (land plants) that are non-vascular plants such as mosses, liverworts etc.
The defining feature of bryophytes is that they do not have true vascular tissue. Although some do have specialized tissues for the transport of water, they are not considered to be true vascular tissue since they do not contain lignin.
There are about 25,000 different species of bryophytes in the world today.
Even though these plants are small in size, they are one of the largest groups of land plants and can be found almost everywhere in the world.
This document discusses the classification and economic importance of bryophytes. It classifies bryophytes into three classes: Hepaticopsida (liverworts), Anthocerotopsida (hornworts), and Bryopsida (mosses). It describes key characteristics of each class. Bryophytes have economic importance as they help prevent soil erosion, aid in soil formation, can retain large amounts of water, and peat made from sphagnum is used as fuel and manure. Bryophytes also serve as a food source for animals in some areas and some species have medicinal uses or are used as indicator plants.
Phylum Tracheophyta includes vascular plants such as ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms. It contains plants that have true roots, stems, and leaves due to vascular tissue that transports water and nutrients. Within Tracheophyta there are four subphyla: Lycophyta containing club mosses, Sphenophyta containing horsetails, Psilophyta containing whisk ferns, and Pterophyta containing the largest group of ferns. Ferns reproduce both sexually through spores and asexually through rhizomes, with the sporophyte generation being dominant.
The document summarizes key aspects of the epidermis and epidermal cells in plants. It describes the epidermis as the outermost layer of cells in organs. It then discusses the structure and types of ordinary epidermal cells, epidermal cells with special structures, cells associated with stomata, cuticle layers and wax, trichomes and root hairs. The main types of stomata are also summarized based on their ontogeny in both eudicots and monocots.
Lenticels are raised spots on tree bark through which gas exchange occurs. They form under stomata and their number depends on stomata. Lenticels develop as parenchyma cells near stomata divide irregularly, forming loose colorless cells called complementary cells. Complementary cells increase in number, pushing against the epidermis and causing it to rupture. There are three types of lenticels distinguished by their filling tissue composition and structure. Lenticels allow for gas exchange at night or when stomata are closed and permit a small amount of transpiration.

This document presents information about plant anatomy and plant tissues. It discusses the three main types of plant tissues: meristems, permanent tissues, and secretory tissues. It focuses on describing meristems, which are tissues composed of actively dividing cells. Meristems are classified based on their origin, location in the plant, and differentiation. The main types of meristems are primary meristems found at tips of roots and stems, secondary meristems that develop later and allow thickening, and lateral meristems involved in secondary growth.
Bryophytes are a division of non-vascular land plants that include liverworts, hornworts and mosses. They lack conducting and strengthening tissues like vascular plants. Bryophytes reproduce using spores and have alternation of generations, with the gametophyte being the dominant generation and the sporophyte attached to it. They are generally found in damp environments where they absorb water through their general surfaces.
The lichens are slow growing, long living organisms.
Theophrastus was first to use the word lichen.
Lichens are formed by close association of two different partners,
A) Phycobiont or photobiont: The algal component of lichens is called phycobiont.
It mostly belong to Chlorophyceae(green algae)
Or cyanobacteria ( blue green algae)
B) Mycobiont: The fungal component of the lichens is called mycobiont. It belongs to ascomycetes and rearly Basidomycetes or Deuteromycetes.
Orange essential oil is extracted from the rind of sweet oranges through cold pressing. This involves applying pressure to squeeze the oils from the rind. The leaves and flowers may also sometimes be used. Sweet orange essential oil provides several health benefits, including improving digestion and relieving constipation, nourishing skin, promoting happiness, eliminating toxins from the body, and helping reduce high blood pressure.
