The field experiment was conducted during the winter (kharif) seasons of 2021-22 and 2022-23 at CSIR-Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants Research Centre Purara, Bageshwar, Uttarakhand. The study's objective was to investigate the most effective combinations of plant spacing configurations and NPK levels to enhance biomass and seed yield of kalmegh [Andrographis paniculata (Burm. F.) Wall ex. Nees] under the Western Himalayan region of Uttarakhand. The experiment consisted of nine treatments, comprising three different plant spacing (60x30 cm, 60 x45 cm, 60x60 cm) and three NPK levels (40:30:20, 80:60:30, 120:90:40), arranged in factorial randomised block design. The results indicated that treatment T3 (120:90:40 NPK) and spacing S3 (60x60 cm) consistently demonstrated superior performance, resulting in the highest plant height, number of branches, LAI, total dry matter weight, dry seed weight, and leaf stem ratio. Treatment T2 (80:60:30 NPK) and spacing S2 (60x 45 cm) displayed intermediate results, while treatment T1 (40:30:20 NPK) and spacing S1 (60 x 30 cm) exhibited relatively lower values for most parameters.

Lemongrass, a highly aromatic herb rich in citral content within its essential oil, serves diverse industries like fragrance, culinary, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Traditional Indonesian cuisine benefits from its use as a spice, while it also contributes to Vitamin A production. Forecasts indicate a projected Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 9.93% from 2021 to 2028, propelling the global lemongrass oil market from $41.98 million to $81.43 million. CSIR-CIMAP has diligently focused on advancing lemongrass cultivation and oil extraction through novel cultivars and agrotechnologies. Their efforts aim to elevate farmer income and cater to escalating lemongrass oil demands. A breakthrough cultivar, "CIM-Krishnapriya," has been introduced, poised to amplify lemongrass oil yield and subsequently augment farmers' earnings. This new cultivar boasts an herb yield of 25-30 t/ha and an oil yield of 300-320 kg/ha. Keywords: CIM-Krishnapriya, Citral, Cymbopogon flexuosus, Lemongrass, Poaceae

Peppermint (Mentha piperita L., Lamiaceae), is an essential oil-bearing crop cultivated in temperate and sub-tropical countries for perfumery and aroma industries. The plant is vegetatively propagated through runners derived from mother stalks of the plants, resulting in a low genetic base. Induced mutagenesis is a unique and supplemental breeding approach to overcome the limitations of a low genetic base. A few popular varieties, namely Kukrail, Tushar, Pranjal and CIM-Madhuras, have already been released for commercial cultivation. However, all of those have creeping growth habit, propagation only by runners, low oil content, low oil yield, and higher than 5% menthofuran content. Due to these drawbacks of previously released varieties, CSIR- CIMAP has used mutation breeding to develop a peppermint variety with erect growth habit, sucker-producing ability, and increased oil yield with high menthol and low menthofuran content. CIMAP/MPS-36, a half-sib seed progeny of variety Kukrail, served as the mother genotype for mutation breeding using different doses of gamma irradiation. A mutant, MPS-3633, was identified as a novel and promising mutant with a distinct quality of peppermint oil and released for its commercial cultivation in the name of variety CIM-Suras. CIM-Suras displayed novel and industrially useful characteristics, i.e. high menthol (68–78%) content with low menthofuran (0.2-0.8%) content, sucker generating, erect growth habit, flower-bearing and an increase in herb yield, oil content, and oil yield. This cultivar could be a sustainable solution to bottlenecks of already released peppermint varieties. Further, dementholisation (DMO) can be used as peppermint oil and to extract menthol from oil.

Rose scented geranium, a South-African aromatic herb, is cultivated in both sub-tropical and temperate countries for its essential oil derived from the aerial parts that conveys a strong rosy-minty odour with a greenishyellow colour. The oil is a treasure trove of versatile chemicals with extensive applications in the high grade perfumery, pharmaceutical, and aroma industries. The annual rise in its essential oil import for indegenic consumption in the country warrants its genetic enhancement of existing germplasm for increasing per unit area productivity and quality of essential oil. With this backup, our team initiated a clonal selection scheme to develop a genetically improved clone, CIMAP-21A, capable of producing 70-80kg/ha of oil yield in a single harvest compared to other existing cultivars and check variety CIM-Pawan. The new developed variety also has unique chemical compositions to meet the quality standard of the perfumery industry. It has a high Citronellol: Geraniol (C: G) ratio (>3) with the presence and absence of unique sesquiterpene markers i.e., 6,9-guaiadiene (5.4%) and 10-epi-γ-eudesmol, respectively. The unique sturdy dark green stem and leaves are the distinguished morphological features of this strain. The developedclone is ideally suitable for cultivation in the entire North India and Western regions of the country. This strain has now been christened as CIM-Bharat and it is registered here as a new, improved variety of rose-scented geranium for its commercial release.

Adansonia digitata Linn. (Bombacaceae), commonly known as baobab has a great potential to be exploited by food and beverages, nutraceutical and natural cosmetic section. Leaves, stem, bark, fruit pulp and seeds of this tree are employed as food stuff as well as medicine hence aptly called as small pharmacy. The present study aims at assessment of nutraceutical potential of methanolic extracts of edible parts of Baobab viz., leaf (MEL), stem (MESt), fruit pulp (MEFP) and seed (MESe) in terms of antioxidant and antibacterial activity. Antibacterial activity was evaluated by Agar Disc Diffusion method against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Bacillus subtilis, Nocardia sp. and Staphylococcus aureus. All extracts exhibited very little or no zone of inhibition indicating less sensitivity towards bacteria. The oxidative stress due to free radicals is one of the causes for majority of diseases in humans. Antioxidant activity of edible parts of A. digitata was evaluated on the basis of DPPH free radical assay. IC50 was found to be 22 µg/ml (MESt), 23 µg/ml (MEL), 50 µg/ml (MEFP) and 94 µg/ml (MESe) indicating strong antioxidant activities in all edible parts of the plant. Phytochemical analysis of these extracts indicated presence of anthracene, bitter principles, coumarin, flavonoid, lignan and tannin in different plant parts.
