Phytochemical profiling and LC/MS analysis of Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker
Abstract: Selaginella bryopteris (L.) Baker, an endemic pteridophyte is found restricted to the Indian subcontinent mostly because of its environmental requirements of cool temperatures and optimum water availability. It is a drought-resistant species and shows curling in limited water supply reviving when water conditions are restored. This property makes this species a suitable plant for exploration of medicinal properties, although its restricted occurrence has limited this evaluation. The current study explores …
