BIOECOLOGY OF LALLEMANTIA ROYLEANA (BENTH.) BENTH
Abstract
Lallemantia royleana, commonly known as Balangu, is a significant medicinal plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family, primarily found in tropical Asia. Its bioecology is influenced by various factors, including organic fertilization, drought tolerance and phytochemical properties. Studies indicate that organic fertilizers, such as cow, sheep and chicken manure, significantly affect its growth, with optimal results observed at specific application rates (Pulatova & Maxkamov, 2024). Furthermore, ecotypes of Lallemantia royleana exhibit varying drought resistance, with certain ecotypes thriving under severe water stress, showcasing their adaptability in arid regions (Krenn, 2022; Shams et al., 2022). The seeds are rich in proteins, fats and various phytochemicals, contributing to their pharmacological effects, including antimicrobial and antioxidant properties (Saleem et al., 2022; Khan et al., 2019).
