Patent number: 7435877Abstract: Indian basil, Ocimum basilicum, belongs to the family of Lamiaceae. The essential oil of Indian basil extracted via hydro or steam distillation from the leaves or whole plants is used to flavor foods, dental and oral products, in fragrances, and in traditional rituals and medicines. Extracted essential oil has also been shown to contain biologically active constituents that are insecticidal, nematicidal, fungistatic or which have antimicrobial properties. The present invention relates to the development of an early, short duration, dwarf, high essential oil, methy chavicol and linalool yielding variety of Indian basil (Ocimum basilicum). Family—Lamiaceae) named as ‘CIM-SAUMYA’. This new variety of Indian basil was developed through open pollination in the germplasm followed by half-sib progeny selection and evaluation for the yield characters of selected population for 3 years in field conditions.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2004Date of Patent: October 14, 2008Assignee: Council of Scientific & Industrial ResearchInventors: Suman Preet Singh Khanuja, Raj Kishori Lal, Arun Kumar Agnihotri, Ajit Kumar Shasany, Ali Arif Naqvi, Samresh Dwivedi, Hari Om Misra, Om Prakesh Dhawan, Alok Kalra, Aparbal Singh, Janak Raj Bahl, Saudan Singh, Dharani Dhar Patra, Shilpi Agarwal, Mahendra Pandurang Darokar, Anil Kumar Gupta, Moti Lal Gupta, Ram Chandra

Publication number: 20040194175Abstract: The present invention relates to a new and distinct high essential oil variety of lemon grass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) named as ‘Nima’. Further the invention relates to the high content of the monoterpene citral in the essential oil. This novel variety ‘Nima’ of the lemon grass is a selection from the open pollinated seedlings of the seeds obtained from another Cymbopogon flexuosus variety OD 19 from the germplasm collection of CIMAP. This variety is propagated through vegetative means using the slips and stable for commercial cultivation.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2003Publication date: September 30, 2004Inventors: Raj Kishori Lal, Hari Om Misra, Jawahar Ram Sharma, Nilakshi Singh, Ajit Kumar Shasany, Ali Arif Naqvi, Janak Raj Bahl, Arun Prasad, Suman Preet Singh Khanuja

Publication number: 20040194176Abstract: The present invention was related to the development of a novel, distinct high yielding plant with rapid regeneration ability obtained through screening of the somaclones in a methodical way for fast regeneration in the tissue culture stage itself which was achieved by inventing the plant ‘Kushal’. The plant yield higher herbage with corresponding high essential oil when evaluated with available superior varieties of mint in late planting condition during April when the fields are vacated after the harvest of Rabi crop like wheat, chickpea, coriander etc. Further the suckers required for commercial vegetative planting can be produced even in low land condition as the plant is reasonably tolerant to water logging compared to the best check ‘Kosi’.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2003Publication date: September 30, 2004Inventors: Suman Preet Singh Khanuja, Ajit Kumar Shasany, Usha Yadav, Sunita Dhawan, Mahendra Pandurang Darokar, Janak Raj Bahl, Soni Gupta, Sweta Pandey, Anil Kumar Singh, Ravi Prakash Bansal, Raj Kishori Lal, Om Parkash Dhawan, Ali Arif Naqvi, Alok Kalra, Alok Krishna, Virendra Kumar Singh Tomar, Anil Kumar Singh

Publication number: 20020173023Abstract: A novel esterase, cleaving acyclic monoterpenyl esters into their monoterpenols, has been detected in the crude enzymic preparation of palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii) inflorescence. The extraction and assay condition for the enzyme has been standardized. The esterase enzyme has shown maximum activity in the alkaline pH range, with optimum temperature at 30° C. using geranyl acetate (acyclic monoterpenyl acetate) as substrate. Time course hydrolysis of geranyl acetate using crude enzymic preparation revealed that after 24 hours of incubation approximately 75% geranyl acetate was hydrolyzed. The crude esterase enzyme, when stored at 4° C., was quite stable for one week with 40% loss of activity. The enzyme also has the capability to hydrolyze other acyclic monoterpenyl esters such as geranyl formate and citronellyl acetate, which are normally present in several aromatic plant species.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2002Publication date: November 21, 2002Applicant: Council of Scientific and Industrial ResearchInventors: Vinod Shanker Dubey, Rajesh Luthra, Ali Arif Naqvi, Sushil Kumar
