Exploring medicinal plants for their natural products to benefit humanity has been a practice since ancient times. Berberis aristata, also known as tree turmeric or Indian barberry, has a dominant spot in conventional medicine for 2500 plus years. In the latter years, this particular species has gained prime attention in pharmaceutical zone due to its scarcity. The plant and its formulations are used to treat numerous human health threats including cancer, diabetes, diarrhea, wound relieving, infections of eyes and ears, gynecological disorders, and HIV-AIDS. The bioactive compounds present in B. aristata are found to contain anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-microbial properties. The plant is critically jeopardized species of Indian Himalaya due to the collection of its roots at a large scale for obtaining berberine alkaloid and its conservation is of great concern. At present, isolation of endophytic entities from remedial plants revolutionized the path of discovering drugs from medicinal plants. Endophytes can produce the same bioactive as their host plant as well as another bioactive to address a variety of human health issues. The review examines the bioprospecting of B. aristata, a medicinal shrub from the family Berberidaceae, and its associated endophytes for the production of bioactive compounds with application to human health. Finally, the review provides a comprehensive outlook on the current status and future prospects of bioprospecting B. aristata and its endophytes to combat future human health threats is an exciting area of research that should be further explored.

“…Vinca (Catharanthus roseus (L) G. Don, commonly known as periwinkle), belongs to the family Apocynaceae and is grown as an ornamental flowering plant. It is a bedding plant widely used outdoors in flowerbeds or planters, in gardens, on balconies, or around buildings (Gurudevan et al, 2022).…”

This study highlights the influence of different mineral fertilizers on the incidence and severity of vinca (Periwinkle; Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don) root rot disease. Moreover, it demonstrates the effectiveness of some chemical fungicides in reducing disease parameters. This research provides valuable insights for the development of effective fertilization strategies to enhance plant health and mitigate the impact of root rot diseases in vinca. Ammonium Sulfate ((NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 ) completely inhibited disease parameters and consistently increased plant growth parameters. Potassium and Humate potassium have limited efficacy. Rizolex-T and Occidor fungicides demonstrated complete inhibition against all tested fungi (F3(Fusarium solani; Fx3(Fusarium proliferatum); Rh.x (Rhizoctonia solani L.) and Rh.w ( Rhizoctonia solani 2) on PDA media, while Uniform and Nasrzole showed varying degrees of effectiveness depending on the tested fungi. In vivo, the application of fungicides has varying degrees of efficacy in preventing infection with vinca root rot pathogens. Rizolex-T, was effective against most pathogens, exhibited a partial effect against Fusarium proliferatum. Occidor demonstrated good efficacy against Rhizoctonia solani 2 but was less effective against Fusarium solani. Nasrzole showed overall effectiveness in preventing infection by all tested pathogens, with only partial efficacy against Rhizoctonia solani 2. The application of fungicides, particularly Nasrzole, positively influenced the growth parameters of vinca plants infected with root-rot pathogens.
