Received: 23/Jan/2019, Accepted: 10/Feb/2019, Online: 28/Feb/2019 Abstract─ Endophytic fungi are known to produce a wide range of metabolites of pharmacological importance. Endophytes associated with medicinal plants are targets for intensive research. This research paper deals with the endophytic fungi isolated from Wattakaka volubili also known as Dudipala, a high valued medicinal plant in traditional medicine. A total of 39 fungal species representing mostly imperfect fungi were isolated from different plant parts. The fungal species varied with geographic and environmental conditions of the same host species. Among different genera, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Phoma and mycelia sterilia were dominant. Solvent extracts of five endophytic fungi viz Aspergillus oryzae, Diplodia andamanensis, Fusarium graminearum, Penicillium rubrum and Rhizoctonia bataticola were tested against four human pathogenic bacteria, Antibacterial activity varied with the fungus as well as solvent. The inhibitory activity is very prominent on E.coli. Hexanol and chloroform extracts activity is very close to streptomycin. In light of these observations it is recommended that the pure extracts need to further test for antibacterial activity.

Caper family belongs to the order Brassicales comprises various important medicinal plants distributed in tropical countries. Maerua is the second largest genera in this family. Maerua arenaria is a wild climbing shrub having high medicinal value, due to over exploitation it becomes threatened. In vitro propagation technique has been adopted for conserving the valuable medicinal plant by using plant growth regulators. Initially the nodal explants were inoculated on MS medium supplemented with 4.0 mg/l BAP and 2.0 mg/l NAA for axillary bud proliferation. Multiple shoots (5-6 shoots per explant) were recorded after 34 days on MS medium with 2.0 mg/l BAP and 2.0 mg/l IAA. Since the shoots are small, they were transferred on MS medium containing 2.0 mg/l BAP and 2.0 mg/l GA3 for shoot elongation. These well developed elongated shoots were transferred to MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/l IBA for rooting. These in vitro developed plantlets were acclimatized in green house and successfully transplanted to natural condition and 78% of plants were survived.

The lichen species richness in Chamarajanagar district in Karnataka, India were assessed using altitudinal gradient, in order to compare distribution patterns of different growth forms, dominant families and diversity index. Four major forest ranges, Biligiriranga Hills, Himavad Gopalaswamy Hills, Malay Mahadeshwara Hills, and Shivanasamudra Falls were surveyed and a total of 97 lichens, belonging to 47 genera and 25 families were recorded. Physciaceae was found to be dominant family by 18 species under 8 genera, followed by Parmeliaceae with 16 species under 4 genera. Crustose type was dominated with 51%, followed by foliose type with 38%. Malay Mahadeshwara hills had highest lichen species richness and harboured 67 species, of which, 36 species were crustose type and 28 species were foliose type. Shannon-weiner index ranged from 3.852.45 and Simpson index of diversity ranged from 0.02-0.09. Luxuriant growth of lichens was recorded at the altitude of mid elevation with degree of abundance, density, frequency and distribution of the lichen species compared to other elevation. The present study provided baseline data of lichen diversity, which helps in understanding the relationship between distribution of lichen species along different elevation bands and vegetation types. Keywords— Biodiversity, Deciduous forest, Physciaceae, Corticolous, MM Hills

Keeping in view importance of macrophytic in aquatic ecosystems, we focused on the diversity of macrophytes in Jammu and Kashmir State, the part western Himalaya. A total of 234 macrophytic species were reported from all three regions of state after taken into consideration both primary and secondary sources. The emergent macrophytes had the highest diversity, followed by rooted floating leaftype, submerged and free floating. The maximum numbers of macrophytic species were recorded in the Kashmir valley while as minimum of 41 species from the Ladakh region. The lakes which have been submitted to an increasing eutrophication for the past several years is overgrown mainly by the aggressive interlopers like Typha sp., Phragmites australis, Sparganium ramosum and Scirpus sp and some free floating species.

Available online at: www.isroset.org Received: 10/Jan/2019, Accepted: 11/Feb/2019, Online: 28/Feb/2019 AbstractSerum liver marker enzymes ALT, AST, ALP and GGT are generally used as liver marker enzymes however they cannot provide exact idea regarding establishment of liver disease condition because many liver cirrhotic participants indicate non-significant alteration. Present study is aimed to know the level of antioxidant defense system and oxidative stress in controls and cirrhotic participants. The cross-sectional study was carried out at tertiary centre of gastroenterologist unit at Anand. Experimental participants were divided into two groups: Control (n= 52, Age26.7±1.23 years, 39 M/ 13 F) and cirrhosis (n= 44, Age53.48±2.02 years, 34 M/10 F). All participants underwent anthropometric assessment, clinical examination, biochemical parameters, antioxidant parameters and lipid peroxidation marker or oxidative stress marker. Results of our study indicates nonconclusive increase in serum enzyme level. As an average only 42-67 % of the participants indicates increase (ALT (55%), AST (67.5%), GGT (57.5%) and ALP (42.5%)). The total antioxidant activity (Gallic acid equivalent (GAE (p<0.0001)) and Trolox equivalent (TE) (p<0.0001)) and antioxidant enzymes such as Catalase (CAT (p<0.0001)), Glutathione Peroxidase (GSHPx (p<0.0001)) and Glutathione-s-transferase (GST (p<0.0001)) were significantly decreased except superoxide dismutase (SOD (p<0.05)) during cirrhosis condition. Lipid peroxidation marker or oxidative stress marker (MDA) was significantly increased (p<0.0001) in cirrhotic participants compared to controls. The alteration in the above parameters is among all (100%) the participants. Study strongly indicates that antioxidant enzymes namely GST, GSHPx and CAT can be used as surrogate markers of oxidative stress for the cirrhosis condition.

Transition metal complex of Cd (II) with tetradentate schiff base derived from the condensation of 4-nitro-1,2diamino benzene and 5-nitro-salicyldehyde (H2L) have been synthesized. The synthesized square planar complex was investigated using elemental analysis (C, H and N), infrared, conductivity and electronic spectroscopic tools. The interactions of cadmium (II) complex examined towards Bovine serum albumin (BSA) with the help of absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic tools. The complex is strongly binds to proteins, then we study the antibacterial activity of the Schiff base and its cadmium complex by agar disc diffusion method against some species of pathogenic bacteria (Escherichia coli, Vibrio cholerae, Streptococcus pneumonia and Bacillus cereus).The result indicated that cadmium complex was more activity than ligand due to higher lipophilicity effect. Keywords— Cadmium complex, Bovine serum albumin interaction, antibacterial activity.

Weaving is a one of the time honored crafts in the globe. The handloom industry is mainly a rural based cottage industry, where the processes are done mainly manually. Some handloom product of West Bengal like “Sari” (a traditional Indian dress worn by females in India) appreciated worldwide. It is an extensive piece of art work exclusively done manually by the weavers. The product development encompasses a wide range of tasks such as manual sorting of raw materials, dyeing, cutting, starching and adjustment of loom, arrangement of thread and spindle insertion, etc. This study was aimed at evaluating the different health problems and socio-economic conditions of the handloom weavers. Three hundred forty (340) weavers were randomly taken from different districts of West Bengal and 108 people from the same localities and similar socioeconomic background were also taken as a referent. Detailed job profile of handloom weavers was also analyzed with the help of established standard questionnaire. It was observed that all types of weavers belong to low socio-economic condition and suffered from several health problems like pain in different body parts, eye constraint, respiratory problems and many more to say.
