Biology question #845
Q:I am currently conducting an experiment to do with the medicinal properties certain species of plants produce when they react to a yeast elicitor. I would like to know if there are any medicinal properties of the folliwing plants: Christia vespertilionis, Acacia mucronata, Dolichos lablab & Lathyrus annuus?
the answer
A:
According to "Medical Botany" by Lewis & Lewis, John Wiley & Sons, 2003, Dolichos lablab and Lathyrus annuus are both poisonous plants. They are not listed as having medicinal qualities.
