Title : Cultivation of medicinal and aromatic plants in Nepal: An overview Material Type: printed text Authors: Barakoti, T.P., Author Pagination: 47-59 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Medicinal, aromatic, plants, cultivation, Nepal Abstract: Nepal is rich in medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs), prevalent from Tarsi plain (60 m) to the Himalayan region (5000 masl). Of the 1624 species identified with medicinal and aromatic properties, some have good source for income and health care. Above 80% crude herbs are exported to India, China and other countries. MAPs contribute about 5% GDP and annual earning from the export exceeds 10 million dollars. Increasing interest in plant origin medicines led rising demand of herbal products throughout the world. However some of the high value MAPs arc endangered and extinct in the natural habitats resulting in declined export. Diverse geographical and climatic conditions are congenial for growing various MAPs in Nepal. Socio-economic and market conditions also reveal tremendous opportunities to increase production and export. Farmers are interested to cultivate MAPs for income generation and improve livelihood......

Title : Effects of drought on the mobility of foliar-applied boron in plants Material Type: printed text Authors: A Shrestha, Author ; T Eichert, Author Pagination: 151-162 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Boron dicotyledonous plants, foliar-application, mobility, transpiration rate. Abstract: Boron is a unique micronutrient with narrow margin between deficiency and toxicity. It is considered to be phloem immobile or to have only limited phloem mobility in many higher plant species, where it is transported along the transpiration stream and accumulates in the margins of leaves. However, one would expect a phloem transport of boron if the back diffusion into the xylem in some way be prevented. The back diffusion into the xylem may only be possible under reduced transpiration. In the present research, the distribution of foliar-applied B in green gram plants (Vigna radiata L.) under varying transpiration rates was evaluated in the Plant Nutrition greenhouse at the University of Bonn, Germany, between July and September 2009. The experiment was laid out in a Complete Randomized Block Design (CRBD) comprising three moisture levels (75, 50 and 25 % WHC), two boron levels (100 and 0 mM B)…………………….
