Abstract

Ampelocissus spp. (Family Vitaceae) collected from various of Indian forests, conserved, identified taxonomically and evaluated for morphological characters, cytological relationship, fungal diseases, insect and pest, drought and salts tolerance and phytochemicals, etc. Ampelocissus spp. are climbers, which grow only in monsoon and remain dormant in winter and summer. The species are mainly found in dry deciduous or in moist evergreen forests. Ampelocissus martini Planch. is endemic to Andaman. Evaluation of the species for various characters has importance in grape improvement programme with help of advanced tools of biotechnology otherwise in preparation of various Ayurvedic Drugs.
