Present paper gives an account of 23 grass species from plateaus of Satmala ranges, which are new additions to the Flora of Nasik District.

Palynological studies were carried out on 15 medicinal plants from Pocharam Wildlife area. The pollen characters, such as size, shape, aperture and ornamentation types were studied. The pollen morphology showed considerable diversity, which may prove helpful in identification of the taxa.

Present investigation was undertaken to survey angiospermic macrophyte diversity in Pajhar Lake Kurli of Nipani Taluka, District Belgaum (Karnataka State). The study involved extensive floristic survey of the study area, during January, 2020 to December, 2021. 51 species belonging to 44 genera and 28 families were recorded. Fabaceae Lindl. was found to be the most dominant family, followed by Convolvulaceae Juss. The assessment of macrophyte diversity was done by calculating species frequency, richness and dominance.

The plants of Flaveria trinervia (Asteraceae) were subjected to phytochemical screening. For this purpose methanol, ethanol, and aqueous extract of leaf, stem, root, and tops of Flaveria trinervia (Sprengel) C. Mohr (Asteraceae) were used. The result indicated presence of alkaloids, phenol, flavonoid, tannin, glycoside, coumarins, amino acids, and proteins. The leaf extract contained higher amounts of these secondary metabolites.

In the present study Glutathione - S -Transferase (GDT) - 11GS, Acetyl Transferase (AT) - 2PQT, Sulfotransferase (ST) - 3BFX proteins were successfully docked with Spathulenol and Toddalinine-k lead molecules. The Fitness scores of Spathulenol and Toddalinine- k were calculated with the help of Schrodinger Suite software It was concluded that Toddalinine - k could be a potent agent of respiratory diseases.

Geranium is rich in secondary metabolites, and thus possess medicinal properties. An attempt was made during present investigation to study the effect of geranium leaf leachate on germination of wheat seeds. It was observe that and leaf leachate inhibited seedling growth.

Present research work was carried out to enlist ethnomedicinal aquatic macrophytes in Daldalibeel (wetland) of Merapani in Golaghat district of Assam. The objective of the study was documentation and identification of aquatic ethno medicinal plants used by the people of the study area. During the investigation period, ethno medicinal species belonging to 12 families were collected and identified. Information on their traditional uses was found out. Total 26 plant species of medicinal value, belonging to 12 families were recorded, among which, members from families Araceae and Asterace were recorded.

In this paper, Mg₀.₆Zn₀.₃CrₓFe₂O₄ferrite nanoparticles synthesized by using lime juice extract the prepared ferrite nanoparticles were characterized by using XRD, SEM, UV- Visible Spectrometer from XRD studies reveal that the formation of spinel cubic structure phase ferrite nanoparticles. The, Mg₀.₆Zn₀.₃CrₓFe₂O₄ ferrite nanoparticles have been synthesized by using lime juice extract. The photocatalytic activity has been studied to probe the degradation of methylene blue dye under sunlight irradiation. It is observed enhanced photocatalytic degradation with the green synthesized nanoparticles. Green synthesized nanoparticles studies with dye degradation revels that these nanoparticles are useful in removing pollutants from water.

Local communities in many parts of the world have conserved sacred forests or groves, based on spiritual and cultural values. Sacred groves are traditionally protected small patches of vegetation type which has been dedicated to a particular deity and managed by the local communities through a wide range of management practices such as not allowing cutting of trees, collection of fuel wood, and grazing of the grove area. In the present study God Bhairavnath temple of Jategaon, Shree Kshetra Korthan Khandoba devasthan temple, Padali darya, from Parner Tahasil, of Ahmadnagar district were selected. During this study, 59 ethno-botanical species belonging to 53 genera were collected and identified. Their medicinal information was collected from local people and documented in his communication.

Present paper gives an account on soil characteristics of different locations of Golaghat district. Parameters studied were water holding capacity (WHC), Pᴴ, organic carbon, phosphorus, potassium and available nitrogen.
