Background: Fagopyrum esculentum Moench. is a herb consumed as food and has medicinal value. It is a rich source of bioactive nutrients which cure and prevent many ailments. Traditionally, it is used to treat hypertension, diabetes, constipation, cancer etc. Methods and Objective: Present work illustrates morphological, microscopic and physicochemical parameters of Fagopyrum esculentum seeds as per WHO guidelines, in vitro antioxidant activity; assessed by DPPH scavenging method, hydrogen peroxide scavenging assay and β-carotene linoleic acid bleaching method and study of lipid lowering potential of the ethyl acetate and ethanol extract of seeds on normal diet fed Wistar rats. Results: Morphological studies delineated the triangular shape, dark brown colour, 8 mm length and 6 mm width of the seed. The microscopic examination of the transverse section of seed depicted features like testa or pericarp (seed coat), the endosperm, embryo and sclerenchyma cells. Study of physiochemical parameters exhibited 0.3±0.02% of foreign matter and 1.44±0.51% crude fibre content. Total ash, acid insoluble ash and water soluble ash value were 6.7±1.7%, 1.9±0.23% and 3.9± 0.31% respectively. Alcohol soluble and water soluble extractive value came out to be 65.02± 3.21 mg/g and 12.7±1.24 mg/g respectively. Foaming index was less than 100, swelling index was found to be 0.5±0.01 ml/g. Loss on drying was 4.02±1.27%. Phytochemical screening of ethyl acetate and ethanol extract revealed the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, phenolic compounds, phytosterols and flavonoids. Trace amount of heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury) were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Pesticide residue analysis confirmed the presence of nontoxic pesticides like dimethipin, hymexazol, phenothrin-2, methoprene, triadimenol, prohydrojasmon- 1, jasmolin ii, triademinol, jasmolin i, prohydrojasmone i, cyromazine in both the extracts by gc-ms spectrometer. The ethyl acetate and ethanol extract has shown significant in-vitro antioxidant activities demonstrated by the DPPH method (IC50 = 94.37±2.51 and 216.04±4.39 μg/ml respectively), hydrogen peroxide scavenging assay (IC50 = 83.72±3.72 and 193.47±5.05 µg/ml respectively) and β-carotene bleaching method (IC50 = 100.67±4.01 and 205.39±2.89 µg/ml respectively). Lipid lowering study performed on Wistar rats demonstrated a significant (p<0.001) decrease in serum Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG) and increase in High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) level as compared to normal group. Both the extracts have shown a non significant difference in the level of TG as compared to standard drug atorvastatin, depicting that the efficacy of extracts is at par with that of standard drug atorvastatin. Conclusion: Pharmacognostical study of the plant can be a very good tool for identification as well as authentication of a herb. Moreover, these parameters may be helpful in the development of monograph of the plant. Pharmacological activity confirmed Fagopyrum esculentum Moench. seed to be a good antioxidant and have lipid lowering potential.

RESUMO Objetivou-se com este trabalho comparar o valor forrageiro do milheto e trigo-mourisco, sob irrigação, em diferentes idades de corte. Utilizou-se delineamento experimental em blocos ao acaso, com os tratamentos arranjados em modelo de parcelas subdivididas. As plantas foram cultivadas durante a estação seca, sob irrigação e colhidas em três idades de corte, 47, 57 e 67 dias (tratamentos). Foram determinados os teores de matéria seca (MS), proteína bruta (PB), fibra em detergente neutro (FDN), fibra em detergente ácido (FDA), matéria mineral e produção de gases in vitro e a produção de matéria seca. A produção do trigo-mourisco (2301, 3144 e 4471 kg MS/ha) foi superior à do milheto (437, 592 e 2224 kg MS/ha) nas três idades de corte. Os teores de PB do milheto foram, em média, 22,3% nas três idades de corte, mas no trigo-mourisco reduziu de 23,8% no primeiro corte, para 14% nos demais cortes. O trigo mourisco apresentou maior teor de FDN no primeiro corte 57,6% contra 52,1% do milheto, entretanto diminuiu no segundo e terceiro cortes, 46,8% e 41,2%, respectivamente, enquanto que no milheto mantiveram-se em 55,1% e 52,7% no segundo e terceiro corte. Os teores de FDA forma mais elevados para o trigo mourisco em comparação com o milheto nas três idades de corte estudadas. A produção de gases foi maior para o trigo mourisco em comparação ao milheto, com exceção do primeiro corte, quando o trigo apresentou maiores taxas de fermentação. O trigo mourisco apresentou qualidade como forrageira, sendo mais produtivo e nutritivo do que o milheto durante o período seco, sob irrigação.

The article presents results of usage of the tissue culture method on buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) together with the selective factor increased concentrations of heavy metal ions in the nutrient medium. On the basis of Izumrud (Russia), Kitavase (Japan), hybrid Izumrud x Kitavase there were developed regenerant lines tolerant to copper and zinc. Negative action effect of copper ions was observed from the second generation in the second posterity of the plants-regenerants, developed from the callus, in the form of the chlorophyll-free mutants. Positive effect of the heavy metals was observed on increasing of rutin content of the plants-regenerants in vitro. Selective evaluation in the field conditions of the samples tolerant to heavy metal let to choose from them the most adaptive to monsoon conditions in Primorskykrai, which combine valuable traits of big grain (weight of 1000 grains 36-38 g), high seed productivity (1,9-3,2 g) and high rutin content in aboveground mass of plants (2,8-4,3 %).

In vitro fertilization could be useful to overcome the problem of self-incompatibility of common buckwheat. Therefore, experiments were conducted to isolate viable protoplasts from egg cells for use in vitro fertilization. Protoplasts from viable egg cells of common buckwheat were isolated by enzyme treatment followed by mechanical isolation. Incubation of ovules for up to 4 h allowed the boundary wall of the egg cells to become partially digested and the protoplasts of the egg cells came out of the micropylar or chalazal end after squashing with a mean isolation frequency of approximately 30% (6 out of 20 ovules). The egg cell protoplasts were larger than those of the synergids. Key words: Common buckwheat, Fagopyrum esculentum Moench., protoplast, egg cell solation, embryo sac
