Physalis ixocarpa commonly called tomatillo belongs to the genus Physalis and family solaneaceae. There are about seventeen accession of P. ixocarpa reported from the world. We are reporting for the first time new accession of P. ixocarpa from district Shangla KPK Pakistan, with molecular biochemical and in vitro culture study for their pharmacological importance and conservation. The introduction of new accessions in the genus Physalis was supported by morphometric and molecular data of sixteen accessions provided by National plant germplasm system USDA (USA). Seventeen accessions were evaluated for nine morphometric and two physiological traits. Among these traits, plant height, relative water content, total chlorophyll content and leaf area were found as best for the differentiation among these accessions. The data regarding these traits were analyzed by NTSYS software using UPGMA method. The morphometric similarity coefficient between different accessions was 0.15 to 0.61. These accessions were also screened for genetic differentiation using RAPDs primers. Out of 32 primers, only 8 primers amplified the DNA fragments, and provided genetic information about these accessions. The genetic similarity among different accessions was in the range of 0.03 to 0.33. Genetic similarity matrix showed maximum genetic similarity of 33% between two combinations (PI662845 and PI662846, PI512909 and PI66843) and minimum genetic similarity of 3% obtained between PI512005 and PI360740. The RAPD data supported the ecological distribution and relation among the isolated geographic population. The topology of dendogram indicated that most of the accessions with similar geographic condition were grouped together in dendogram. Mexican and American accessions were clustered together in separate groups. The new accession of P. ixocarpa from Pakistan was clustered together with one accession of Indian and American origin in the dendogram. It is inferred from molecular typing that accessions PI512005 and PI360740 were the most diverse accessions among the different accessions of P.ixocarpa. The medicinal importance and economic value was investigated by preliminary bioactivities and the recovery of bioactive compounds of the accession. The variation in bioactivities of the different parts of the plant is due to uneven localization and distribution of secondary metabolites in plant matrix. Among different parts of the plant tested for antimicrobial activity, calyx showed inhibitory activity against most of bacteria. Antifungal activity was found only in leaf part of the plant. Strong antioxidant activities were found in different parts of the plant. Crude methanolic extract from leaf, stem, fruit, and water fraction from stem exhibited strong antioxidant activity as compared to other samples. Phyto-chemical screening showed the presence of active compounds (alkaloid, polyphenol, tannin, glycoside) responsible for the bioactivities of the plant parts. Polyphenol of dietary and pharmaceutical interest was quantified in different parts of the plant through HPLC and spectrophotometric 2 assay. Total high polyphenol content was found in leaf followed by stem, calyx and fruit. High concentration of gallic acid was observed in the leaf followed by fruit, stem and calyx. The newly reported accession of P. ixocarpa has now become endangered due to overgrazing, erosion, over exploitation and limited availability. The micro propagation protocol was optimized in the present study. The data regarding the in vitro culture of the subject plant indicated that maximum number of shoots was obtained on full strength shooting media containing 1.5 mg.L-1 BAP and maximum number of primary and secondary roots were produced on half strength media supplemented with 1mg.L-1IBA for micro propagation to maintain the biodiversity of this endangered medicinal plant.

افسوس ہے افضل العلماء ڈاکٹر عبدالحق بھی پچھلے دنوں ستاون ۵۷ برس کی عمر میں راہی ملک بقا ہوگئے۔ شمالی ہند کے عوام میں توکم ہی لوگ ہوں گے جو مرحوم کوجانتے ہوں،البتہ جنوبی ہند میں ایک ایک بچّہ اُن سے واقف تھا اور مسلمان تواُن پرجان چھڑکتے تھے۔وہ جنوبی ہندکے ’’سرسید‘‘کہلاتے تھے۔ کیوں کہ انھوں نے مسلمان لڑکیوں اورلڑکوں کے سات اسکول اور کالج مدراس میں اپنی یاد گار چھوڑے ہیں۔علوم قدیمہ وجدیدہ دونوں کے مبصر عالم تھے۔پہلے کانپور کے ایک مدرسہ میں درس نظامی کی باقاعدہ تکمیل کی اوراس کے بعد انگریزی کے امتحانات کی طرف متوجہ ہوئے توآکسفرڈ یونیورسٹی سے ڈی فل کرکے ہی دم لیا۔ واپسی پرپہلے محمڈن کالج مدراس کے پروفیسر عربی اور پھر پرنسپل مقرر ہوئے، اس کے بعد مدراس کے گورنمنٹ پریسیڈنسی کالج کے پرنسپل ہوئے۔ یہاں سے پنشن لینے کے بعد مدراس کے پبلک سروس کمیشن کے ممبر اور آخر میں صدر بھی ہوگئے تھے ۔اﷲ تعالیٰ نے مرحوم کوعلمی اور عملی دونوں قسم کے کمالات سے نوازا تھا۔ علوم قدیمہ وجدیدہ کے نامور فاضل ہونے کے ساتھ صورۃً وسیرۃً نہایت راسخ العقیدہ مسلمان اورسچ مچ ایک مومن قانت تھے۔ نہایت جری اوردبنگ تھے، حق بات کے کہنے اورکرنے میں کسی کی ذرا پروا نہیں کرتے تھے۔برہان کے شروع سے خریدار اورندوۃ المصنفین کے بڑے قدردان تھے۔مسلم یونیورسٹی علی گڑھ کے کچھ دنوں پر و وائس چانسلر بھی رہے تھے۔انھیں دنوں میں کلکتہ یونیورسٹی کی ایک ضرورت سے کلکتہ تشریف لائے تو دیر ینہ تعلق کے پاس خاطر سے غریب خانہ کو بھی شرف قدوم سے نوازا۔ملاقات ہوئی اور شرف ہم طعامی بھی حاصل ہوا۔اس کے بعد مرحوم نے علی گڑھ میں مسلمان طلباء کے حقوق کے تحفظ کے سلسلہ میں جواقدامات کیے تھے وہ بڑے جوش وخروش کے ساتھ سنانے شروع کیے۔اتفاق ایسا ہوا...

تفسیر در منثور اور موضوعی روایات: ایک تحقیقی جائزہ

Abstract: Jalal-al-Din Al-Suyuti is famus scholar who has compiled a full fledge and long tafsir known as Al-Durr Al-Ma'thurfit al-tafsir Al-Ma'thur. This work is a masterpiece and is of the unique nature, but unfortunately he has quoted some fabricated narrations in his Tafseer. This article deals with below points: Introductions of Jalal-al-Din al Suyuti Deflation of fabricated Narration Introduction ofAl-Durr Al-Ma'thurfi al-Tafsir Al-Ma'thur Technical analysis of fabricated narrations Outputs of the research based article. The aim of the article is to protect the great narrations of Prophet (SA W) not to devalue the great work of Imam al-Suyutti.

Exploring Teachers Collaborative Practices in Teaching and Learning a Private School in Karachi, Pakistan

The purpose of the study was to explore the existing practices of teachers' collaboration in a private school in Karachi. To achieve this purpose, the study looked at the stakeholders' perceptions, the practices of teachers and the factors that facilitate or hinder the collaborative practices in teaching and learning. A qualitative case study approach was used to do an in-depth study. The data was collected through semi - structured interviews, informal talks, observations and document analysis. The findings of the study revealed that stakeholders perceive collaboration as an effective practice that enhances team work and relationships. This practice achieves the aims of education by enhancing teaching skills and by improving students' learning. Teachers' collaborative practices exist both at formal and informal levels. The formal practices include planning, Friday sessions, classroom observations, sharing book reviews, meetings, co-curricular activities, and Meditation practice. The informal practices of teachers' collaboration include need - based meetings, peer teaching and mentoring practices of teachers. The facilitating factors that emerged from the study include the encouragement and support from the principal, recognition of teachers' work, allocation of time and space for meetings and discussions on teaching and learning practices in the school. The limitations in school policy, lack of professional development opportunities for the teachers and positional and hierarchal factors were found as hindering factors for teachers' collaboration. This study suggests that teachers' collaboration can be useful for teachers' development and school improvement, if the principal and teachers develop mutual trust for improving teaching and learning. The study also identifies areas for further research to improve collaborative practices in schools.
