Characterization of Selected Plants Leaves with Particular Emphasizes on Epidermis

Abstract

The leaves of most plants contain two highly differentiated cell types in the epidermis guard cells, which constitute stomata, and trichomes. These cells, the spacing of which is the primary focus are usually separated from each other by pavement cells. Our understanding of the response of angiosperm stomata to environmental parameters remains imprecise because we know little about the mechanisms of stomata control modules. This research was carried out in the old Botanical Garden of the Agriculture University, Faisalabad from January 2019 to June 2019 to examine morphological studies of selected dicots plants leaves with biological active compounds for treatment of cancer using the compound light microscope also to predict algometric relationships between morphologically stomata traits in relation to gaseous exchange in leaf and required allocation of epidermal area to stomata. Epidermal cells varied from round, square to hexagonal with distinctive anticlinal cell wall and sunken stomata distributed on adaxial and abaxial were observed. Stomata are present in the upper and lower surface of the leaves helpful as adaptation for plants during photosynthesis process and stress condition to maintain the water usage.

Coordinated metal complexes with curcumin Schiff base: Synthesis, investigation, antibacterial screening, antioxidant studies, molecular docking and density function theory calculations

“…48 Schiff bases SP-5 (benzylidene aniline) and SP-18 (benzylidene urea) were also produced by Wahab et al Using the DPPH technique, the antioxidant activity of SP-5 and SP-18 was evaluated with value 937.50 μg/ml and no activity, respectively, indicating the highest activity of our prepared curcumin Schiff base when compared with SP-5 and SP-18 ligands. 49 Antibacterial studies Gram-positive strains (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative strains (Escherichia coli and Proteus vulgaris) were consumed to test the antibacterial activity of H 2 L ligand and its complexes. Table 6 and Figure 9 presented a summary of the antibacterial screening results.…”

Characterization of Cyanobacterial Strains Isolated from Soils Polluted with Insecticides

“…Insecticides represent the greatest proportion of pesticides used in developing countries. Chlorpyrifos used since 1960s, for the control of crop from insects (Bicker et al, 2005) but contaminated aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem and public health because it has long half-life and high residual concentration (Nawaz et al, 2011). Chlorpyrifos is remains biologically active in soil for periods ranging from twenty to eighty days and is moderately persistent, from ten to sixty days (Lakshmi et al 2008).…”
