“…Elaeocarpaceae is a huge family comprising more than 550 known species distributed in 12 genera and represented mainly in Australia, South America, and Southeast Asia [1,2]. Genus Elaeocarpus comprises 350-400 species dispersed in lowland to montane areas of Asia, Australia, Madagascar, and the Pacific islands [3,4,5]. The Crinodendron , Sloanea, and Vallea are endemic genera in South America, whereas nine other genera are distributed in Australia [1,2].…”

DNA barcoding is an indispensable taxonomic tool for plant species identification. The present research successfully amplified the four coding regions of plastid namely; matK, rpoB, ndhJ, and accD, sequenced, and submitted it to NCBI Genbank after verification. This study evaluated the significance of single (matK, rpoB, ndhJ, and accD) and two-locus plastid loci (rpoB+matK, ndhJ+matK, accD+matK) and examined their abilities for species identification and phylogenetic construction of Elaeocarpaceae plants. The average aligned length for matK, rpoB, ndhJ, accD, ndhJ+matK, rpoB+matK, and accD+matK was 395 bp, 538 bp, 477 bp, 254 bp, 872 bp, 937 bp, and 649 bp, respectively. The highest substitution rate was recorded in the rpoB (18.47%), followed by ndhJ (17.38%), accD (14.00%), and matK (11.23%). The number of variable sites, segregating sites (S), nucleotide diversity (Pi), and mutations (Eta) were observed to be highest in the matK region. Evolutionary relationship based on the Neighbor-joining method demonstrated that candidate barcode sequences were competent for identifying Crinodendron, Elaeocarpus, Sloanea, and Vallea species. A significant barcoding gap was identified in two barcoding regions (matK and ndhJ+matK). The species-specific barcodes for the genus Elaeocarpus were generated based on Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) analysis. This study offers novel strategies for effectively identifying species within Elaeocarpaceae and lays the foundation for germplasm conservation and utilization.

Currently, additive manufacturing is utilized to fabricate many different actuators suited for soft robots. However, an effective controller paradigm is essential to benefit from the advantages of soft robots in terms of power consumption, production costs, weight, and safety while operating near living systems. In this work, an artificial muscle is additively manufactured with soft silicone elastomer material capable of demonstrating several levels of stiffness. The 3D‐printed muscle is equipped with carbon fibers to receive a stimulus signal and develop a programmable joint that can present different stiffnesses. A nonlinear controller is developed to autonomously control the variable stiffness joint based on a reinforcement learning algorithm. The controller exhibits a slight increase in settling time; however, it demonstrates a decrease in fluctuation amplitude by 33% and a substantial reduction in power consumption by 41% in comparison to the optimized proportional integral derivative controller. At the same time, it is adaptable to and reliable in new conditions. The variable stiffness muscle is also used as a controllable mechanism to suppress the low frequency vibration. The study shows that the muscle can successfully attenuate the vibration autonomously when it is increased.

Bioactive compounds have various applications in different industries, including food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, demonstrating the need to identify the best-standardized technique to screen the phytochemical profile of medicinal plants. This study aimed to characterize the bioactive compounds in the hydroethanolic extracts of Elaeocarpus ganitrus leaves using various analytical techniques: HPLC, LC-MS, and HPTLC. Air-dried leaves of E. ganitrus were extracted with 70% ethanol. The phytochemical composition of crude extracts was analyzed by the High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method, and a total of 93 compounds, including 46 flavonoids, 17 phenols, 14 polyphenols, 3 phenolic acid, 3 phenolic glycosides, 2 flavonoid glycosides, 2 glycosides, 2 phenylpropanoid glycoside, 1 hydroxycinnamic acid, 1 lignan, 1 tannin, and 1 terpene glycoside were detected and quantified. The Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analyses identified 11 major eleven compounds: quercetin (803.0215 ug/L), gallic acid (726.13 ug/L), ferulic acid (652.34 ug/L), chlorogenic acid (651.021 ug/L), pinocembrin (264.11 ug/L), p-aminobenzoic acid (251.021 ug/L), epicatechin (246.02 ug/L), catechin (161.51 ug/L), caffeic acid (123.31 ug/L), syringaldehyde (116.31 ug/L), and naringenin (106.31 ug/L). The chemical fingerprinting was carried out by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC), and HPTLC fingerprint qualitatively revealed a predominant amount of gallic acid (48.64 %), curcumin (15.21 %), caffeic acid (12.19 %) and cinnamic acid (6.50 %). A significant amount of bioactive constituents in a hydroethanolic extract of E. ganitrus leaves indicates the plant's therapeutic potential, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, anticancer, neuroprotective, and cardio-protective activities.
