Insect pest problems in forest nurseries of selected indigenous tree species viz., Calophyllum and Pterocarpus marsupium was studied at Peechi in Kerala State. The most serious pest incidence was noticed on G. arborea (by the caterpillars of Epiplema fulvilinea); A. odoratissima (by the Psyllid Psylla oblonga) and Pterocarpus marsupium [by the psyllids Spanioneura (quadrimaculata group) and Ary...

The methanol extract of the bark of Machilus odoratissima was subjected to investigate its antioxidant and antibacterial properties. The phytochemical screening demonstrated the presence of different types of compound like terpenoids, tannins, deoxy sugar, saponins and phenolic compounds. The methanol extract of the plant was tested for antioxidant activity using scavenging activity of DPPH(1,1...
