Abstract | ||||
The trees of Faidherbia albida Del. are indigenous to Africa and considered a prominent feature in the flora of Nile valley and the Eastern Desert. They are known as Apple-ring trees because the pods tend to roll in to a spirals resembling dried apple peal. It is employed traditionally to treat disorders such as fever, diarrhoea, urticaria, vomiting, cough, rheumatism and haemorrhage. To our knowledge, few morphological and microscopical studies were traced concerning the plant1, so this study aims for characterization and identification of this plant in both entire and powdered forms. | ||||
