CYTOLOGICAL STUDIES OF TWO SPECIES OF GENUS DELONIX
Many cytological characteristics were studied in two species of Genus Delonix i.e., D. regia and D. elata . Delonix regia possessed 2n = 28 chromosome number. Both univalent as well as bivalents occurred invariably in this plant species, the former type being predominant over latter type. The chiasma frequency per PMc varied from 8-12 with average being 15.82. The chiasma frequency per chromosom...

A REVIEW OF SOME MEDICINAL PLANTS ON THEIR ANTIULCER AND ULCER HEALING POTENTIAL
The imbalance between aggressive (pepsin, Hydrochloric acid) and protective elements (bicarbonate and mucosa) in the inner lining of the stomach lead to the formation of peptic ulcers. The presence of Body fluids, mucosal hydrophobicity, fast epithelial cell recharging, and rich mucosal blood flow is involved in mucosal protection of the Stomach. Prostaglandins E2 and I2 are the predominant pros...

ANTIFERTILITY INVESTIGATIONS ON THE ETHANOL EXTRACT OF EUGENIA SINGAMPATTIANA BEDD LEAF IN MALE ALBINO RATS
Antifertility effect of ethanol extract of leaf of Eugenia singampattiana was observed in male albino rats. The relative weight of the testes and epididymis were decreased. The epididymal sperm count, motility and sperm abnormality were reduced significantly in treated rats. There was an increase in serum urea, creatinine and the activity of liver marker enzyme (SGOT) levels of drug treated rats. ...
