Despite the extensive research on the botany, phytochemistry, and pharmacology of Rif's cannabis, there is limited comparative research on the fruits and oils of different strains cultivated in the region. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; This study examined the biometric, germinative and physicochemical properties of three cannabis strains grown in the Western Rif region of Morocco. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and methods:&lt;/strong&gt; three cannabis strains (Beldiya, Khardala and Critical) were characterized by their biometric parameters (weight, length and width), germinative and physicochemical properties. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study revelated that there are notable differences in the biometric properties and germination rates of the achenes of the strains studied. Additionally, significant variations were observed between the strains with regards to their oil yield, as well as the levels of polyphenols and flavonoids. The results also revealed a correlation between biometric parameters, germination rate and phytochemical content. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;The oils of all strains studied were extra virgin, and the Beldiya strain's fruit oil was found to be particularly rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, making it a potentially useful ingredient in nutrition and health applications. Overall, this study provides useful information for researchers and growers interested in the cultivation and use of cannabis fruits and oils in various industries.&lt;/p&gt;

Thus, the objective of the study was to screen in vitro anthelmintic activity of leaves and fruits of &lt;em&gt;Zanthoxylum rhetsa&lt;/em&gt; on &lt;em&gt;Eisenia fetida&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Tubifex tubifex&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;strong&gt; Material and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Total methanol extract and solvent fractions of methanol extract were prepared by maceration and solvent solvent extraction process respectively. The chromatographic fingerprints of total methanol extracts of leaves and fruits were developed using HPTLC. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The leaf and fruit extracts showed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, coumarins, essential oils and saponins. The extracts exhibited significant anthelmintic activity as evidenced by decrease in paralysis death time in the treatment groups when compared to standard. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The results suggest that fruits and leaves of &lt;em&gt;Z rhetsa&lt;/em&gt; have promising anthelmintic activity and further studies are required to identify the phytochemicals responsible for anthelmintic activity.&lt;/p&gt;

The present study reports Gas Chromatographic- Mass spectroscopic characterization of both the conventionally used part i.e., the rhizome as well as other parts of &lt;em&gt;R. emodi&lt;/em&gt; including callus to exploit the nonconventional parts for future use. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To explore the bioactive constituents in the methanol extract of rhizome, fruit, leaf and callus of &lt;em&gt;R. emodi&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Phytochemical characterization of the plant extracts was performed by using GC-MS QP 2010 Plus. Various constituents were identified after matching their mass fragmentation pattern with data available in GC-MS library of National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST) and Wiley Registry of Mass Spectral Data’s, New York (Wiley). &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Total of 95 bioactive compounds were obtained in methanol extract of &lt;em&gt;R. emodi&lt;/em&gt; out of which rhizome, fruit, leaf and callus revealed 31, 38, 27 and 47 compounds respectively. Two anthraquinones, chrysophanol (43.97%) and physcion (3.23%) were obtained from rhizome whereas fruit possessed only physcion (4.66%). &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; The present findings characterizes and helps to supplement the chemical profile of the plant for its futuristic role in nutritional, pharmaceutical and therapeutic industries.&lt;/p&gt;

In recent years, Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton is used as a functional food for treating various diseases without authentication. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; The current work was investigated to perform the morphoanatomical and physicochemical of Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton fruit. &lt;strong&gt;Method: &lt;/strong&gt;Pharmacognostic studies were carried out for different parameters include organoleptic, macroscopic, microscopic, fluorescence and physicochemical analysis.&lt;strong&gt; Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The fruit was shining burgundy purple in colour having smooth lustrous surface, globular to ellipsoidal in shape with 10-15 mm in length and diameter was 9 mm. The main microscopic characteristic of fruit showed ovules, compact angular parenchyma cells, developed sclerenchymatous outer sheath, central xylem and phloem strands. Fruit powder showed oil bodies, spherical parenchyma cells in large thick masses and walls of the epicarp demonstrated cellulose content. Further, physicochemical examination of fruit powder showed loss on drying, total ash, insoluble ash as 9.23, 7.8, and 9.16% w/w respectively. The water and alcohol soluble extractives values of the fruit were 24.74 and 76.88% respectively. Anthocyanins and flavonids were also confirmed by phytochemical screening.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; A variety of pharmacognostic features was found in fruitful way which may help in identification and standardization of Vaccinium macrocarpon Aiton fruit in a crude form.&lt;/p&gt;
