Abstract:
... The aim of this work was to determine the chemical composition of essential oil of roots of Mondia whitei and to evaluate their antifungal potential against Aspergillus flavus and Penicillium sp. Oil was obtained by hydro-distillation and gas chromatography was used to analyze their chemical constituents. The fungi were isolated from post-harvest yams (Dioscorea rotundata) showing typical symptoms ...

Abstract:
... We have developed an efficient in vitro mass propagation system for Mondia whitei, an endangered South African medicinal plant of significant traditional importance, using somatic embryogenesis in cell suspension culture. Leaf explants generated friable embryogenic calli (FEC) when cultured on embryogenic callus induction medium (ECIM), which contained Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, 8gL−1 agar w ...

Abstract:
... Maintaining cultural identity and preference to treat cultural bound ailments with herbal medicine are motivations for migrants to continue using medicinal plants from their home country after moving to Europe and the USA. As it is generally easier to import exotic food than herbal medicine, migrants often shift to using species that double as food and medicine. This paper focuses on the trade in ...
