## 6. Department of Biotechnology (DBT)

The  DBT  has  been  implementing  a  programme  on  Translational  Research  for Developing Products and Processes from Medicinal and Aromatic Plants by funding R&D projects at various institutions / universities / other organizations with an objective to utilize the  tools  and  techniques  of  biotechnology  for  identification  of  elite  material  and  their multiplication, chemical and molecular characterization, production of secondary metabolites, developing standardized, efficacious and safe herbal products (both in AYUSH mode as well as  phytopharmaceutical  drugs),   isolation  and  characterization  of  novel  bioactives  with therapeutic  potential,  generating  genomic  resources  and  studying  biosynthetic  pathways  in important  medicinal  and  aromatic  plants.  Under  Special  Programme  being  implemented  in North  East  Region,  research  projects  have  been  supported  in  the  areas  of  screening  of endemic  medicinal  plants  of  various  diseases  such  as  cancer,  diabetes,  anti-microbial resistance etc.; characterization and inventorization of the germplasm, captive cultivation of selected  medicinal  plants  of  NER,  standardization  of  extracts,  development  of  polyherbal formulations, isolation and characterization of bioactive compounds etc.

## 7. Indian Council of Agricultural Research

ICAR-Directorate  of  Medicinal  and  Aromatic  Plants  Research  (ICAR-DMAPR) located  at  Anand,  Gujarat  conducts  basic,  applied  and  adaptive  research  on  medicinal  and aromatic plants on 11 mandated crops viz. Aloe vera, Guggal, Senna, Isabgol, Aswagandha, Giloe,  Safed  musli,  Lemongrass,  Palmarosa,  Salaparni  and  Satavari.  Presently,  DMAPR  is maintaining  2168  germplasm  accessions  of  16  species  of  MAPs  and  331  accessions  of Betelvine as given in Table 1. In addition, 3915 number of accessions of 46 medicinal and aromatic plants are being maintained at 26  ICAR-All  India Coordinated Research Projects (ICAR-AICRP)  centres  at  different  Agro-ecological  Zones  of  the  country.  These  centres develop  Good  Agricultural  Practices  (GAP)  of  medicinal  plants  which  are  brought  under cultivation and commercially important.
