This contributed volume brings out a comprehensive collection of
changes from cellular to molecular levels in medicinal plants under
extreme environments. The focus of this book is to address the
molecular changes in medicinal plants under different abiotic
stresses. Medicinal plants are regarded as rich resources of
components that can be used for drug development in the
pharmaceutical industry. A few medicinal plants are considered
vital sources of nutrients and solicited for their therapeutic
properties. Therefore, it is essential to understand medicinal
plants' interaction under abiotic stresses as compounds obtained
from these plants play an important role in human health. This book
is of interest to students, teachers, researchers, scientists,
medicinal plant experts, and policymakers. Also, the book provides
study material for undergraduate and graduate students of botany,
environmental sciences, medicinal and aromatic plants,
biochemistry, and biotechnology. National and international
scientists working in the area of medicinal plants, drug
development, and policymakers will also find this a useful read
African Marigold (Tagetes erecta L)is an important commercial
flower of India, belonging to family Asteraceae. It is also known
as friendship flower in the United States and represents vulgar
minds. Easy cultivation and wider adaptability of the crop has
increased its popularity . Flowers are sold in the market as loose
flower or for making garlands, offering in temples, churches,
festivals, beautification and landscape. Although marigold is a
very important flower, yet very little research work had been done
towards the crop improvement. It has a lot of variation with
respect to growth and flower characters, which varies with
germplasm. Germplasm serves as valuable natural reservoir in
providing needed attributes for developing successful varieties.
However, the extent of improvement depends upon the amount of
variability in different characters present in the crops, which is
an indispensable prerequisite for successful breeding programmes.
Therefore, selection accordance to high GCV and PCV is more
effective for a particular traits. High heritability alongwith high
genetic advance in per cent of mean provides a best guiding to
formulate effective selection programme.
