Novel approaches on identification of conserved miRNAs for broad-spectrum Potyvirus control measures
In this study, we predicted evolutionarily conserved miRNAs by BLAST searching of reported miRNAs from 15 plants against the GSS and EST sequences of banana. A total of nine miRNAs were predicted and screened in nine diverse potyvirids' hosts (Banana, Tomato, Green gram, Jasmine, Chilli, Coriander, Onion, Rose and Colocasia) belonging to eight different orders (Zingiberales, Solanales, Fabales, Lamiales, Apiales, Asperagales, Rosales and Alismatales). Results suggested that miR168 and miR162 are conserved among all the selected plants. This comprehensive study laid the foundations to design broad-spectrum antivirus resista...

In vitro cytotoxicity of cardamom oil, lemon oil, and jasmine oil on human skin, gastric, and brain cancer cell line
Conclusion: Our study reveals that lemon oil, jasmine oil, and cardamom oil possess potent antitumor activity compared to standard. At different concentrations, lemon oil has shown statistically significant (***P < 0.0001) anticancer activity toward all the three human cancer cell lines. While jasmine oil has shown statistically significant (***P < 0.0001) anticancer activity toward skin and brain cancer cell line, cardamom oil has also shown statistically significant (***P < 0.0001) anticance...

Curvularia eragrostidis, a new threat to large cardamom (Amomum subulatum Roxb.) causing leaf blight in Sikkim.
Abstract
Large cardamom (Amomum subulatum Roxb.) is now affected by several diseases caused by both viruses and fungi. At present, leaf blight is considered a major threat to cardamom cultivation in Sikkim. During the past two decades, cultivation of the crop in this region has dropped by almost 60%. Hence, to quantify the severity of leaf blight damage and identification of the causal organism for the disease, a survey was conducted from May to August 2017 in different large cardamom growing regions of Sikkim. During this survey, a typical symptom of leaf blight was observed on cardamom leaves in many loc...

Supercritical carbon dioxide extracts of small cardamom and yellow mustard seeds have fasting hypoglycemic effects: Diabetic rat, predictive iHOMA2 models and molecular docking study.
Abstract
In the present investigation, the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extracts of small cardamom (SC) and yellow mustard (YM) seeds have been investigated for their efficacies in combating type 2 diabetes in streptozotocin-induced Wistar albino rats. Fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels in the rats were monitored on days 8, 15, and 21. On day 15, FBG level reduced appreciably by 31.49% in rats treated with SC seed extract and by 32.28% in rats treated with YM seed extract, comparable to metformin (30.70%) and BGR-34 (a commercial polyherbal drug) (31.81%) administered rats. Either extract exhibite...

Isolation and Characterization of Indigenous Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) from Cardamom Rhizosphere.
Abstract
The present study was conducted to explore the native plant growth-promoting (PGP) bacteria from cardamom rhizosphere in few districts of Kerala and Tamilnadu under cardamom cultivation. The isolates obtained were screened for their PGP characteristics and their beneficial effect on cardamom was evaluated. Of the total 88 isolates, ten were screened as promising based on their performance in growth promoting attributes such as production of indole acetic acid, gibberellic acid, siderophore, hydrogen cyanide, heavy metal tolerance and antibiotic resistance. Diazotrophy of the screened isolates were...

The effects of green cardamom supplementation on blood pressure and endothelium function in type 2 diabetic patients: A study protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial
Introduction:
Cardamom possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammation, and blood pressure lowering properties, which might improve endothelial function in type 2 diabetic patients. However, no study has examined the effect of cardamom on diabetic patients. The present study aimed to examine the effects of 10-week green cardamom intake on blood pressure, concentrations of inflammatory and endothelial function biomarkers in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, and its potential mechanisms.
Methods and Analysis Design:
Eighty overweight or obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (aged 30–60 years) will be recruited into t...
