Abstract:

Using a cross-sectional dataset, this study examines the factors influencing the income and willingness to pay for indigenous plants by rural households in the North West Province of South Africa. The method of data analysis was based on a two-stage Heckman model. Based on empirical data, the majority (93%) of the households are willing to pay for the indigenous plants. Furthermore, factors such as the age of the household’s head, marital status, size of households, financial returns and economic benefit of indigenous plants significantly influenced income and willingness to pay for indigenous plants by the households. Thus, indigenous plants have the potential to penetrate local and international markets and can be used to improve the economies, livelihood, and food security status of rural households in South Africa. Indigenous plant cultivation can increase agro-food system species diversity while conserving plant species indigenous to this area of South Africa. Encouraging both consumption and production of indigenous plants can also help diversify local economies and communities.

Abstract:

Traditional medicine supports the indigenous people to survive in times of pandemic. This form of survival made an interest in pharmaceutical companies. The researchers aimed to determine indigenous plants that contain antipyretic phytochemical constituents as one of the characteristics of NSAIDs and the implications of this traditional knowledge of Indigenous Education into their culture. This study is a meta analysis review that uses thematic and content analysis together with the expression of quantitative results of the present primary and secondary metabolites found in the antipyretic plants. In addition, it used an ethnopharmacological approach in determining the antipyretic properties of the indigenous plants. Findings revealed that there are ten commonly used Antipyretic indigenous plants in the Philippines. These antipyretic plants consist mainly of Flavonoids, Alkaloids, Tannins, and Saponins and based on the reviews, Flavonoid acts as NSAIDS and is found to have Antipyretic property. Added to these, nine of these plants contain flavonoids. Lastly, it was found that indigenous knowledge in the use of medicinal plants is still put into practice by the indigenous people in the Philippines. The study recommends that these plants will be explored and subjected to antipyretic clinical studies

Abstract:

Gastrointestinal disorders are the most common illnesses that affect people nowadays. Its prevalence and incidence have increased over the last decades. The majority of the people in Indonesia are still using indigenous plants as medicine to treat these infections or diseases. This study was aimed to determine the potential of Indonesian indigenous plants in treating gastrointestinal disorders. The plants were inventoried through searching articles such as Google Scholar, PubMed, ScienceDirect and Indonesian medicinal plants books. The keyword search term used was “gastrointestinal,” “Indonesian,” “medicinal plants,” “antioxidant activity,” and “phenolic compound,”. A total of fifty-one species of indigenous Indonesian plants of 32 families were recorded as being used by the Indonesian population to treat gastrointestinal disorders. Gastrointestinal disorders that heavily utilize indigenous plants are diarrhoea, constipation, gastric ulcer and gastritis. Indonesian indigenous plants containing bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, steroids, terpenoids and phenolics that can serve as a source of antioxidants to treat gastrointestinal disorders. There were five Indonesian indigenous plants with the most potential as a source of antioxidants to cope with gastrointestinal disorders: Zingiber officinale L, Annona muricata, Phyllanthus niruri, Curcuma longa and Curcuma xanthorrizha.

Abstract:

Malaria has a global impact due to development of resistance against the frontline anti-malarial drugs which include artemisinin and its derivatives. According to the ancient Indian system of medicine, the Ayurveda, several Indian indigenous plants have been used for treating various ailments. The use of Indian indigenous plants for treatment of malaria is proving to be quite effective and also offers as a cheaper alternative. The purpose of this review is to obtain knowledge about the different Indian indigenous plants that have antimalarial and antiplasmodial biological activities. Literature suggests that many indigenous Indian plants have shown good antiplasmodial and antimalarial activity with effects like decrease in anaemia, weight loss and pyrexia. Hence the Indian indigenous plants have a vast scope to be used as potent future antimalarials.

Abstract:

Underutilised indigenous plants can support and strengthen the existing food system, as they are considered as socio-economically and environmentally appropriate. These plants generally adapt to marginal conditions, which is essential for a resilient agriculture and sustainable food systems. The current study relied on food security and indigenous plants data collected from some selected rural households from the North West Province of South Africa. The utilised data were collected through a multi-stage sampling technique with the aid of a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire, while descriptive methods Foster–Greer–Thorbecke (FGT) and binary logistic regression were used for data analysis. The models produced a good fit for the data, and the computed F-value was statistically significant (p < 0.01). The study examined socio-economic and food security status based on the knowledge and the perception of indigenous plants by the households. The incidence of food insecurity (θ0) was 0.4060, indicating that 40.6% of the participants were food insecure while 59.4% were food secured. Binary logistic regression results indicate that factors such as age, gender, educational attainment, inclusion of indigenous plants in diet, food expenditure, and access in the study area impacted results. It was also evident that the participants had considerable knowledge of indigenous plants. However, these indigenous plants were not cultivated or included in the diet by the majority of the participants. The formulation of appropriate holistic policies that support the incorporation of the indigenous plants into the food system is recommended.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to explore the contributing factors to the extinction of indigenous plants in South Africa. This was due to the evident depletion and loss of indigenous plants in most rural areas in South Africa. This study adopted qualitative research approach with exploratory design. Seminal studies on this subject were purposely collected using keywords extracted from the research topic. Again, Textual Content Analysis was used to analyse the collected data. The results of this study, confirms that indigenous plants are threatened by the human-induced and natural factors. The most notable human factors are the methods of procuring the plant materials, whereas the natural factors are mainly erratic rainfall and rising temperature patterns This study recommends urgent conservation measures such as proper harvesting methods and documentation of indigenous knowledge to mention the least, should be introduced and those that already exist should be properly used in order to prevent the loss of indigenous plants. Advance initiatives are needed to inform policy on adaptation and coping with the factors that contribute to the extinction of indigenous plants.

Abstract:

Early films about plants offer a glimpse into the behavior of vegetal life, which had hitherto remained hidden from humans. Critics have praised this animistic capacity of cinema, allowing audiences to see the movement of beings that appeared to be inert and lifeless. With these reflections as a starting point, this article examines the notion of animist cinema. I argue that early movies still remained beholden to the goal of showing the multiple ways in which plants resemble humans, a tendency we often still find today in work on critical plant studies. I discuss the concept of animism in the context of Amazonian Indigenous societies as a springboard into an analysis of movies by Indigenous filmmakers from the region that highlight the plantness of human beings. I end the essay with an analysis of Ika Muru Huni Kuin’s film Shuku Shukuwe as an example of animist phytocinema.

Abstract:

Man is using plants for curing different diseases for several hundred years. In Pakistan, rangelands and forests are the major sources of medicinal plants, and the residents of different areas including those of the Vanhar Valley depend upon local plants for the medication of several diseases. However, this study was planned to enlist the indigenous medicinally important flora, which will help in conservation of the vanishing knowledge about the indigenous plants of the area by proper documentation. In order to document the uses of indigenous plants, some surveys were conducted for the collection of all available species. For the documentation of uses of these indigenous plant species, 55 experts were interviewed and their knowledge was documented. A total of 41 species belonging to 25 families were recorded from the Vanhar Valley. High numbers of species of families Fabaceae, Amaranthaceae and Asteraceae were used for the cure of several diseases like sexual disorders, piles, asthma, sputum, stomach disorders, diabetes, etc. It was evident that the older people had most of the knowledge about the indigenous plants of the Valley, while the young lacked such knowledge due to the death of older people without documenting or transferring the knowledge to them. With conservation of the knowledge, these plants can be used as a low-cost and effective treatment of many common diseases.

Abstract:

The plant Paederia foetida has customarily been utilized for restorative purposes, however, its system of helpful impacts has remained generally obscure. The northeastern locale of India comprises one of the biodiversity focal points of the world. The ethnic gatherings occupying this locale practice their particular customary information frameworks utilizing biodiversity for food and medical care. Among the less-concentrated plants, Paederia foetida has been utilized by different ethnic clans as food and medication. Many of its ethnobotanical properties relate to the hepatoprotective and gastrointestinal. This is a review of the ethnobotanical uses, phytochemistry, and therapeutic properties of Paederia foetida compiled from various reports. Paederia foetida is promising as a solution for the way of life- related conditions, particularly the treatment of liver cirrhosis. Its utility highlights the need for the evaluation of tribal plants as medicines and the species that could be considered for the development of new drugs.

Abstract:

Lead (Pb) is one of the most common metal pollutants in soil, and phytoextraction is a sustainable and cost-effective way to remove it. The purpose of this work was to develop a phytoextraction strategy able to efficiently remove Pb from the soil of a decommissioned fuel depot located in Italy by the combined use of EDTA and endophytic bacteria isolated from indigenous plants. A total of 12 endophytic strains from three native species (Lotus cornicolatus, Sonchus tenerrimus, Bromus sterilis) were isolated and selected to prepare a microbial consortium used to inoculate microcosms of Brassica juncea and Helianthus annuus. As for B. juncea, experimental data showed that treatment with microbial inoculum alone was the most effective in improving Pb phytoextraction in shoots (up to 25 times more than the control). In H. annuus, on the other hand, the most effective treatment was the combined treatment (EDTA and inoculum) with up to three times more Pb uptake values. These results, also validated by the metagenomic analysis, confirm that plant-microbe interaction is a crucial key point in phytoremediation.

The Mauritian population has a long tradition in the use of ethno-medicine, and the practice is still strong, especially in the treatment of minor ailments. Such interest stems from an existing culture, and many “tisanes” are still prepared from plant materials and sold in several markets around the island.This paper will focus on the various chemical/biological screening techniques currently being used to evaluate the biological properties of medicinal plant extracts. Particular emphasis will be put on extraction and various screening for biological/pharmacological properties. Due consideration will be given to the pharmacological approaches that utilize different animal models for the in vitro and in vivo screening of medicinal plant extracts.

Abstract:

The coronavirus family's severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) causes Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The disease became a pandemic after the fi rst case was identifi ed in Wuhan, China, December 2019. The present study is on “Awareness about medicinal indigenous plants during COVID-19” which was undertaken during 2021-2022 to see the Utility of medicinal indigenous plants to maintain immunity against COVID-19'' in four diff erent localities would be randomly selected in Kanpur district. 30 respondents will be selected randomly from each locality. Thus, in all 120 respondents will be selected for the study. Most of the respondents were belong to 30-40 years of age group, and majority of respondents in the study area were found to be post graduate and above, limited access to source of information television, mobile phones as their communication. The study concludes that most respondents were agree with awareness about medicinal indigenous plants during COVID-19. They were agreeing about Neem is anti-viral eff ect and Tulsi boosts the production of antibodies. The study also concluded that the respondents were agree about cloves helps to stop the growth of microorganism. Also, there was awareness regarding Ginger helps to prevent stress and promote healthy aging.

Abstract:

One of the numerous problems created by the gold rush which took place in northern Brazil (Roraima State) at the end of the 1980s was a severe epidemic of malaria amongst the indigenous peoples of the region. Worst hit were the Yanomami Indians, who had lived in almost total isolation prior to this event. The problem has been exacerbated by the development of chloroquine-resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum. In an effort to identify viable alternatives to dependence on western medicine for malaria treatment, a survey was carried out on the local plant species (wild and cultivated) used for this purpose in Roraima. Fieldwork was carried out amongst seven indigenous peoples, as well as with the non-indigenous settlers. Over 90 species were collected, many of which have been cited as used for treatment of malaria and fevers elsewhere. Knowledge of antimalarial plants was found to vary greatly between the communities, and in some cases there was evidence of recent experimentation. Initial screening of plant extracts has shown a high incidence of significant antimalarial activity amongst the species collected.

Abstract:

(1) Background: The utilization of medicinal plants in the management of diabetes is of great importance to the health of the indigenous population on the African continent. The high cost of orthodox conventional medicines coupled with the perceived side effects encourages the high patronage of indigenous medicinal plants in the management of this metabolic disorder. We conducted a review on the indigenous African medicinal plants that could be useful in preclinical and clinical trials in the field of diabetes mellitus research. (2) Methods: Data were mined from research articles published and associated with the use of medicinal plants in the management of diabetes on the African continent (from January 2019 to March 2024). Literature from ethnobotanical studies on the African continent was searched from the Google Scholar, SCOPUS, Medline, Web of Science and PubMed databases. We employed the following keywords: “indigenous plants”, “diabetes in Africa” and “antidiabetic effect of medicinal plants”. (3) Results: A total of 52 medicinal plants belonging to 31 families were recorded in this study. Amaryllidaceae (14.28%), Fabaceae (9.52%) and Asteraceae (9.52%) were the most cited plant families. The frequently used indigenous medicinal plants on the African continent were Allium sativum L. (n = 6), Olea europaea L. (n = 6), Azadirachta indica A. Juss (n = 5), Allium cepa L. (n = 5) and Moringa oleifera Lam. (n = 5). The highly cited parts of the plant used in the management of diabetes were the leaves (45.55%), bark (14.44%) and bulbs (12.22%). The preferred methods of the preparation of herbal medicines were decoction (45.23%) and infusion (25%). Oral (52.32%) was the preferred route of the administration of herbal medicine on the African continent. (4) Conclusions: The data revealed some similarities in the way countries on the African continent manage diabetes. This interesting observation will assist in our quest towards obtaining a standardized protocol using indigenous medicinal plants to combat diseases on the African continent.

Abstract:

Medicinal plants are valued natural resources to maintain affordable and culture-specific health care. The reliance on these resources for optimal health care aligns with the World Health Organization's (WHO) recommendation to use traditional herbal medicine to meet primary health care needs. Nevertheless, this could potentially have adverse effects on the status and availability of the herbs in their natural habitats. This review outlines the utilisation of indigenous knowledge and methods to preserve indigenous medicinal plants for future accessibility and utilisation. The data presented in the review is obtained from national and international literature on indigenous use and management of natural resources. The review's findings indicate that the sustainable use of medicinal plants is influenced by taboos, seasonal and societal limitations on harvesting, and adherence to regulations on the collection of medicinal plants. Implementing indigenous conservation techniques could effectively help counteract the extinction of medicinal plant species caused by the adverse effects of climatic extremes on biodiversity.
