Osmopriming-associated genes in Poincianella pyramidalis
Osmopriming of seeds can increase seed vigour, allowing faster germination and field emergence, especially under adverse field conditions. The restricted imbibition during priming treatments reactivates metabolism although germination will be prevented.

The Flavonoid Agathisflavone from Poincianella pyramidalis Prevents Aminochrome Neurotoxicity
Flavonoids have been suggested to protect dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease based on studies that used exogenous neurotoxins. In this study, we tested the protective ability of agathisflavone in SH-SY5Y cells exposed to the endogenous neurotoxin aminochrome.

Embryotoxic effects of Poincianella (Caesalpinia) pyramidalis leaves on pregnant rats [PDF]
We investigated the embryotoxic and fetotoxic effects of Poincianella pyramidalis (Tul.) L.P. Queiroz (syn. Caesalpinia pyramidalis Tul.) leaves on pregnant rats ( Rattus norvegicus). Pregnant rats were divided into 4 groups: G1—fed a ration containing 5% P.

Mutation of Cultural Information on the Use of Plant Complexes in Local Medical Systems
Despite being an affable strategy of adaptive expectation, the transmission of cultural information can result in unintended changes in the information. This is known as “mutation” in the theory of cultural evolution. The occurrence of information mutations in local medical systems may be greater in some situations.

Traditional use, phytochemistry and biological activities of Poincianella pyramidalys (Tul.) LP Queiroz [PDF]
The vegetation of Northeastern Brazil is an important source of income for the local population. Poincianella pyramidalis is a very important species in the semiarid and is inserted in various categories of ethnobotanical use, as foraging, construction and technology uses. However, the most important use is medicinal. Several preparations obtained from

In vitro callogenesis of Poincianella pyramidalis (catingueira)
Abstract This work describes the establishment of procedures to induce in vitro callogenesis from Poincianella pyramidalis (Tul.) L. P. Queiroz, Fabaceae, explants. Nodal, internodal and leaf segments were isolated from in vitro germinated seedlings and cultured in MS medium with 0, 2.5, 5 and 10 mg l −1 of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid ...
