  • anti diarrhoea and analgesic activities of the methanol extract and its fractions of Jasminum amplexicaule buch ham oleaceae
    Journal of Ethnopharmacology, 2008
    Co-Authors: Qiang Jia, Wei Peng, Yonggang Wang
    Abstract:

    Jasminum amplexicaule Buch.-Ham. (Oleaceae) has been commonly used in the traditional medicine in dysentery, diarrhoea and bellyache in China. In the present work, the methanol extract of Jasminum amplexicaule and different fractions of this extract were studied for anti-diarrhoea and analgesic activities. The anti-diarrhoea activities were investigated using castor oil-induced, magnesium sulphate-induced diarrhoea models, antienteropooling assay and gastrointestinal motility models in mice. The analgesic activities were studied using hot-plate, writhing and formalin models in mice. At the doses of 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg, the methanol extract (ME) showed significant and dose-dependent anti-diarrhoea and analgesic activity in these models. The chloroform fraction (CHF), ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) and the residual methanol fraction (RMF) exhibited similar activity using a dose of 200 mg/kg in these models. The pharmacological activities of the n-butanol fraction (BUF) were lesser than the ME extract and other fractions. These results may support the fact that this plant is traditionally used to cure diarrhoea and pain.

  • colletotrichum species from jasmine Jasminum sambac
    Fungal Diversity, 2011

    Abstract:

    Colletotrichum species associated with leaf and flower anthracnose of jasmine (Jasminum sambac) in the Ho Chi Minh region of Vietnam are reported. The disease of jasmine plantations was considered serious as it likely reduced flower yield. Leaves were colonized by Colletotrichum species which formed chlorotic regions with light brown necrotic centres, which eventually covered the whole leaf and subsequently caused defoliation and dieback and whole flowers were blighted. Nine strains of Colletotrichum species were isolated from diseased leaves and flowers and partial ITS rDNA sequences were analysed and morphologies compared across similar species. Based on ITS sequence analysis and morphological characters, three strains were identified as C. truncatum, while one strain was identified as C. siamense. The remaining five strains did not cluster with any known species for which type sequences are available and therefore partial actin (ACT), β-tubulin (TUB2), calmodulin (CAL), glutamine synthetase (GS), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) genes of the isolates were sequenced. Based on the reconstructed multiloci molecular phylogeny, two taxa are formally introduced as new species. Another strain was not well resolved in the phylogenetic tree and herein described as Colletotrichum sp. Further studies are needed to prove its distinctiveness. The morphology and growth rate of all taxa are described and compared with similar species.
