Gossypium species are distributed in arid to semiarid regions of the tropics and subtropics. Generally, shrubs or shrub-like plants, the species of this genus are extraordinarily diverse in morphology and adaptation, ranging from fire-adapted, herbaceous perennials in Australia to trees in Mexico (Smith,1995). Cultivated cottons are perennial shrubs most often grown as annuals. Plants are 1–2 m high in modern cropping systems, sometimes higher in traditional, multiannual cropping systems, now largely disappearing. The leaves are broad and lobed, with three to five (or rarely seven) lobes.
There are several flushes of flowers throughout the year. Roots: Sapodilla is a shallow-rooted tree, with more than 80% of the roots located within the top 75 cm of soil, concentrated within an area half the width of the canopy (Bhuva et al., 1991). About 66% of the moisture extracted from the soil is in the first 75 cm. This root morphology suggests that irrigation may be economically feasible in areas of low
Therefore only some thorny bushes, xerophytic plants, cacti, prickly pear, acacia, short grasses etc. are found. Date palms grow near oasis . ## Add Hand on activity in the middle of chapter Human life Population in the equatorial regions is less due to its geographical factors. The forest areas are home to tribals.
The plant is perennial, diffuse, prostrate, stems 60-120 cm long, slender, more or less clothed with soft whitish hairs. It is distributed throughout South India, up to 900m in the hills station. Literature review reveals that root and leaves contain proteins, tannins and flavonoids and also showed significant inhibitory activity against some fungal pathogens causing major diseases in crop plants and stored food grains (Deepa et al, 2004). Traditionally plant is use in cases of biliousness, rheumatism, excessive heat, intestinal poison, fever, diarrhea, asthma, heart diseases, worms and piles (Pankaj 2004; Nadkarni 1982). Masirkar(2008) reported that its roots contain anti-diabetic activity against alloxan induced diabetes in albino rats.
Some medications have been tested in clinical trials with promising results, like galantamine as a cognitive enhancer in abstinent cocaine users, improving working memory and attention (Potenza et all., 2011). Behavioral and pharmacological treatments complement each other; hence, they ought to be applied simultaneously to improve engagement in treatment and to prevent relapse (Potenza et all., 2011).
Germination is the process by which a plant begins growing from a seed. Two main types of seed germination include hypogeal and epigeal germination. In hypogeal germination, the cotyledons remain in the soil due to the elongation of epicotyl, and this type of germination is found in both monocotyledons and dicotyledons. In epigeal germination, the cotyledons emerge from the ground due to elongation of the hypocotyl. This type of germination is found only in dicotyledons, and is the type that sunflower seeds undergo (Kumar, n.d.).
In terms of locations, most tropical rainforest are found in the Southeast Asia, Central and Western Africa and Central and South America. The tropical rainforests of Central and West Africa harbour 18 percent of the total world, Southeast Asia harbours 25 percent and Latin America harbours 56 percent (Whitmore 1998). In Africa, the Congo basin is the habitat of the large mass of rainforest from where it continues westwards into Gabon and Cameroon (Richards, 1996). From Gabon and Cameroon the follows a narrow belt
In the coastal areas of the tropics and subtropics where it is grown, it requires a hot, moist climate and deep alluvial or loamy soil. It thrives especially near the seaboard, and also in considerable distance
