Opis:
Fruits producing medicinal plants are particularly desirable, the seeds produced are considered as waste after the fruits are consumed. This study assessed the nutritional constituents of some fruits seeds by assessing the proximate, minerals and vitamins present in the seeds of Citrullus lanatus (Water melon), Malus pumila (Apple), Annona muricata (Sour sap), Persea americana (Avocado), Terminalia catappa (Almond fruit), and Carica papaya (Pawpaw). The proximate analysis, mineral and vitamin composition of the selected medicinal fruit seeds were investigated using the standard method of analysis. On the proximate composition, protein content ranged from 15.21-34.70%, crude fat: 13.82-33.15%, crude fibre: 6.96-21.71%, ash content: 2.62-5.90%, moisture content: 7.81-20.72% and carbohydrate: 12.19-26.58%; for mineral content, Sodium ranged from 26.2-832 mg/kg, Potassium: 571-4862 mg/kg, Calcium: 194-2070 mg/kg, Magnesium: 28-862 mg/kg, Phosphorus: 104-1070 mg/kg, Iron: 2.53-60.00 mg/kg, Manganese: 2.73-240 mg/kg, Copper: 1.64-73.00 mg/kg and Zinc: 3.42-84.00 mg/kg, while for vitamins, vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) content ranged from 1.26-23.54 mg/100g, vitamin E content ranged from 0.70-1.57 mg/100g; vitamin A (β-carotene) content ranged from not detected-5.61 mg/100g, while vitamin B content ranged from 0.02 mg/100g-2.67 mg/100g. The fruits’ seeds show a considerable amount of vital nutritional chemicals which makes them as good as the fruits and could serve as nutraceutical remedy.

Opis:
Seed coats of some plant are impermeable to water which cause seed dormancy that prevents germination to be prolonged. For seeds to be effectively propagated in the nursery, it is mandatory to apply some pre-treatment to give utmost rapid and uniform germination percentage. The germination patterns and seedling growth rate differs due to some climatic conditions, geographical influence and differences in their genes. This study aims at assessing the growth response and biomass yield of four accessions of Dialium guineense seeds. Fruits samples were purchased at the markets in four different locations Oyo (Oje), Abuja (Gwagwalada), Abia (Ahia Ukwu) and Edo (Auchi). D. guineense seeds were pre-treated by soaking in water for 48hrs before planting. The germination tray was labelled as Oyo (A1), Abia (A2), Edo (A3), Abuja (A4), and replicated 4 times then placed in the propagator. The parameters to be checked are leaf count, collar diameter, leaf area, stem height and biomass. The mean leaf count for the 12 weeks, Abuja (A4) has the highest leaf count, for collar diameter, accession (A3) Edo has the highest collar diameter while accession (A4) performed best in mean stem height across the weeks suggesting that provenance has a great influence on the growth of D. guineense. The results conducted for mean wet biomass leaf and mean wet biomass shoot indicated accession (A4) Abuja yielded the highest mean value. Mean wet root biomass was significantly different within the first six weeks and shows no significant difference at the end of the weeks. For mean dry leaf biomass and mean dry shoot biomass, accession A4 proves the highest mean value while accession 3 and 4 had a comparable value of dry root biomass which is quite significantly different from the other two accessions which also have same values. This present study shows seed source affects the parameters checked, this may be due to their genetic nature or difference in adaptation to various climatic conditions in the areas where the samples were collected.

Opis:
Vegetative propagation is any form of asexual reproduction occurring in plants in which a new plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant. Different methods of propagation can be used for plants because they respond differently. Based on plant growing uniformly, increasing the production of these plants, their resistance to pest and diseases, early bearing of fruits and having some certain traits in the new generated plants, various techniques of propagation have been designed for it. Plants can be propagated through sexual and asexual methods. Sexual one involves the use of seeds while asexual involves the vegetative parts of plant in raising new ones. The parts of the stem cutting mostly used are leaves, root, stems and terminal bud, due their simplicity. There are various trees on which stem cuttings can be done based on their maturity. It can be done on either herbaceous, hardwood, softwood or semi-hardwood due to their convenience and the stem cuttings of some more difficult to root than others. Asexual propagation involves stem cuttings, air layering, grafting, budding and micro propagation. Adoption of these forms of vegetative propagation has increased over the years and different species have been propagated through each of these methods with various degree of success. This paper aims at reviewing various techniques in propagating plant species.
