“…The crude infusion of the fenugreek seeds is used as tonic, carminative, antispasmodic (Duke, 2001), antidiabetic (Shani et al, 1974;Puri et al, 2002;Mondal et al, 2004), antioxidant (Thirunavukkarasu et al, 2003;Dixit et al, 2005), cytoprotective (Pandian et al, 2002), hepato-protective (Kaviarasan et al, 2007) anti-inflammatory (Vyas et al, 2008;Malviya et al, 2010), antimalarial control (Khater and Shalaby, 2008;Palaniswamy et al, 2008); antifungal (Haouala et al, 2008), antineoplastic (Sur et al, 2001;Amin et al, 2005), anti thyroid hormone (Kar and Tahiliani, 2003), immunostimulant (Bin-Hafeez et al, 2003), hypocholesterolaemic (Valette et al, 1984;Narender et al, 2006), diuretic and as a remedy against kidney stones (Ahsan et al, 1989;Rohini et al, 2009). Several such claims were confirmed experimentally.…”

SUMMARYAcute (24 h) and chronic (90 days) oral toxicity studies on the ethanol extract of Trigonella foenumgraecum Leguminosae (L.) seeds were carried out. Acute dosages were 0.5, 1.0 and 3 g/kg while chronic dosage was 100 mg/kg per day of the extract. All morphological, biochemical, haematological and spermatogenic changes, in addition to mortality, body weight changes and any change in vital organs were recorded. Histopathological investigations were done on vital organs. Growth arrest in the treated animals was observed. The treated mice gained no significant weight during chronic treatment while there was a significant gain in body weight of the control group mice. Biochemical studies revealed a significant decrease in blood sugar levels of fenugreek treatment groups while haematological parameters remained comparable to the control. In the treatment, male group there was a significant decrease in weight of testes as compared to the control. There was a marginal weight gain in kidney weight of mice after chronic treatment as compared to the control. Fenugreek chronic treatment caused a highly significant spermatotoxic effects in male mice.

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is an annual herb used as organic (green) manure and has medicinal applications. Organic fertilizers are used in sustainable agriculture of vegetables. Sources of organic manure and their effects on growth and yield characteristics of plants need to be determined. Effects of vermicompost and vermiwash were determined on qualitative and quantitative factors of chemical content, development and yield of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-gaecum L.) from May to July 2012 at Agriculture College of University Guilan. A completely randomized block design with 3 replications was used. Treatments included 7 t/ha of cow manure, vermicompost, vermiwash (obtained from 7 t/ha vermicompost); 7 t/ha of leachate vermicompost + vermiwash and a control (no fertilization). Use of organic fertilizers beneficially affected plant height, pod length, pod fresh and dry mass, 1000-seed mass, plant fresh and dry mass, internode length and percents of leaves protein and nitrogen. Use of organic fertilizers may increase yield and yield components of fenugreek and its yield efficiency. Učinki komposta deževnikov (vermikomposta) in njihovih izcedkov (vermiwash) na kakovostne in količinske parametre kemijske sestave, razvoja in pridelka sabljastega triplata so bili preučevani od maja do julija 2012 na Agriculture College of University Guilan. Uporabljen je bil popoln naključni bločni poskus s tremi ponovitvami. Obravnavanja so obsegala: 7 t/ha kravjega gnoja, vermikompost, vermiwash (pridobljen iz 7 t/ha vermikomposta); 7 t/ha izcedka vermikomposta + vermiwash in kontrola (brez gnojenja ). Uporaba organskih gnojil je ugodno vplivala na višino rastlin, dolžino strokov, suho maso, maso 1000 semen, svežo in suho maso rastlin, dolžino internodijev in na odstotek beljakovin in dušika v rastlinah. Uporaba organskih gnojil lahko poveča učinkovitost pridelka in njegovih komponent pri sabljastem triplatu.Ključne besede: Trigonella foenum-gaecum L.; pridelek in njegova kemijska sestava; organska gnojila; trajnostno kmetijstvo; vermikompost
