Publication growth pattern of medicinal and aromatic plants literature - a bibliometic analysis

Abstract :

Availability and diversity of cyanobacteria varied seasonally in the backwater of Kattumavadi (Palk Strait) during the year 2002. Totally, twelve species of unicellular and filamentous species of cyanobacteria belonging to either Chroococcaceae or Oscillatoriaceae families were observed. Phormidium fragile was predominant throughout the year followed by Oscillatoria curviceps. Lyngbya hieronymusii, Oscillatoria trichoides, O. salina, O. subbrevis, Phormidium tenue and Gloeocapsa magma were observed in all seasons, however with less frequency. Microcystis aeruginosa and Spirulina subsalsa were observed in all seasons except in monsoon season, whereas, Synechococcus sp. was observed in premonsoon and postmonsoon seasons.
