“…Three plants were studied for each taxon, three replicate values were taken from each plant and the mean value was obtained for each of the quantitative character (Gevu et al, 2014;Uma and Muthukumar, 2014). Floral characters were not studied as no flowers were bloomed during the study period as those are seasonal flowering plants.…”

Zingiberaceae, includes medicinally and economically important monocotyledons mostly distributed in South and South East Asia. A complete taxonomic knowledge of this plant group in Sri Lanka is lacking hence the present study was carried out to characterize and infer phenetic and genetic relationships of eight economically important zingibers. Morphological and anatomical characters of leaves, rhizomes and adventitious roots and phenolic characters of leaves were cluster analysed using MINITAB 17 to derive relationships. A phylogram was obtained from MEGA software using rDNA ITS sequences amplified by PCR from leaf genomic DNA. Costus speciosus was used as the out group in the phylogenetic study. As per the principal component analysis plant height, rhizome diameter, length of rhizome internodes, leaf length, leaf width and length of leaf petiole can be recommended as suitable for characterization of these taxa. rDNA ITS regions may well be used for Zingiber and Curcuma species identification. Combination of morphological, anatomical and phenolic characters can be used in delimiting commonly used Z. officinale cultivars and Curcuma species in Sri Lanka. Further, derived genetic relationships of these taxa would provide better information in characterization of commonly used Zingiber cultivars, Curcuma and Alpinia species in Sri Lanka at the initial developmental stages and would support in quality improvement breeding programs.

“…O gênero Alpinia, pertencente a Zingiberaceae, é morfologicamente constituído por um caule subterrâneo do tipo rizoma, folhas simples e inflorescência terminal. Conhecido por suas propriedades aromáticas, a beleza das inflorescências e seu papel na medicina tradicional (VICTÓRIO, 2011;GEVÚ et al, 2014), a espécie desse gênero que mais se destaca é a Alpinia zerumbet.…”

RESUMO Alpinia zerumbet L. é uma planta medicinal utilizada na maioria dos estados do nordeste brasileiro. Ela vem sendo objeto de estudo a muitos anos devido ao seu vasto potencial terapêutico, avançando bastante na última década, quando teve aspectos aprofundados das suas já conhecidas atividades biológicas, como antineoplásica, antimicrobiana e anti-inflamatória, e indicação de novas, como ansiolítica e antidepressiva. Os resultados expostos nessa revisão reforçam que A. zerumbet é uma fonte rica em compostos bioativos passíveis de utilização para atividades variadas.

Avaliação das Substâncias Fenólicas em Rizomas de Três Espécies de Renealmia L. f.: Quantificação, Atividade Antioxidante e Histolocalização Resumo: A histolocalização das substâncias fenólicas foi feita por técnicas usuais em Anatomia Vegetal. A determinação do teor de fenóis totais e do teor de flavonoides foram realizadas por métodos espectrofotométricos. A atividade antioxidante foi avaliada pelos métodos DPPH, ABTS e FRAP. Todos os extratos avaliados apresentaram capacidade antioxidante; entretanto, os melhores resultados foram para os extratos de R. nicolaioides. Correlação positiva foi encontrada entre o conteúdo total de fenólicos e os ensaios de capacidade antioxidante. Os resultados são inéditos para o gênero em questão e contribuem para novas pesquisas sobre substâncias fenólicas e suas atividades antioxidantes.
