Histochemical studies of the rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. willd.
Journal Title: International Journal of Life Science - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
The rhizome of Alpinia galanga L. Willd (Family: Zingiberaceae), were collected from three different regions, i.e., Udupi, Bisle ghat and Shringeri, shade dried under normal room temperature conditions and were subjected to histochemical studies for the presence of chemical components like calcium, starch, callose, chitin, lignin, phenolics, tannins and total proteins. The analyses revealed different colouration that indicated the presence either partially/completely or absence which were due to the growth of Alpinia galanga L. Willd in different regions had experienced change in various climatic factors like light, temperature etc.
