Characterization and Phylogenetic Analysis of the Chloroplast Genome of <i>Carissa spinarum</i> L. (Rauvolfioideae, Apocynaceae). [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn this study, we present the first de novo assembled chloroplast genome of Carissa spinarum L. and provide detailed insights into its genomic features. This is the second genome we are characterizing from the genus Carissa L. as before the article on Carissa macrocarpa exists. Furthermore, we reconstructed the phylogenetic relationships of C. spinarum

Local Knowledge and Conservation Priorities of Medicinal Plants near a Protected Area in Brazil. [PDF]
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2019 We investigated the influence of socioeconomic factors (age, gender, and occupation) on the local knowledge of medicinal plants in the Araripe National Forest, Brazil, and the priority of conservation of the species as perceived by people. Additionally, priority species for in situ conservation were identified by calculating conservation priority (CP).

Taxonomic Distribution of Medicinal Plants for Alzheimer’s Disease: A Cue to Novel Drugs
International Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder manifested by decline in memory and mild cognitive impairment leading to dementia. Despite global occurrence of AD, the severity and hence onset of dementia vary among different regions, which was correlated with the customary use of medicinal herbs and exposure level to the causatives.
