Leaf, pollen and seed morphology of Eremostachys superba was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to facilitate identification of this critically endangered medicinal herb. The SEM analysis of the species showed that the leaf of the species is covered with unicellular sparse indumentum of short or longer simple hairs and more pronounced at the margins. The seeds of E. superba are triradiate with triquetrous surface and a tuft of stiff multicellular hairs are present at the apical end. The pollen grains are tricolpate with reticulate surface.Keywords

An ethnobotanical survey of plants used by the 'Rongmai' tribe for the treatment of various diseases was carried out in the Mashkall village, Lakhipur sub-division of Cachar district of Assam. Information on the names of plants, part used and methods of preparation was collected through a questionnaire which was administered by the local herbalists, traditional healers and rural dwellers. Information collected has revealed 16 plant species belonging to 15 families have been found to be utilized for 48 diseases.Keywords

The present study describes seed viability, germination and storage behaviour studies of Eremostachys superba seeds under controlled condition. Eremostachys superba is an endangered medicinal and ornamental herb of North-West Himalaya. Fresh seeds exhibited 98% seed viability and a gradual decrease in seeds stored for different durations at room temperature (RT) and 0-4°C in refrigerator. Maximum germination percentage was observed in seeds stored at 0-4°C for 6-months (35.15%) as compared to the freshly collected seeds (5.7%). Seed germination percentage was enhanced by presoaking the seeds in different concentrations of gibberellic acid. Presoaking of seeds in 400ppm of GA3 was found most effective and 79.32% and 29.43% germination was reported in the seeds soaked in 400ppm GA3 and stored for 6-months at 0-4°C while 29% germination was seen in freshly collected seeds stored at the same temperature and duration. Seeds stored for 6 months at 0-4°C, after presoaking for 24 hours in 400ppm GA3 and sowing in the month of August were found to be most conducive for propagation.Keywords
