Description Not Available
A field survey across various parts of India coupled with an
analysis of the literature and an examination of herbarium specimens
revealed the presence of four species of crop wild relatives that have
not been reported from India, viz., Dioscorea piscatorum Prain & Burkill
(from Little & Great Nicobar), Fagopyrum gracilipes (Hemsl.) Dammer
ex Diels (from Arunachal Pradesh), Rubus praecox Bertol. (from Jammu
& Kashmir), and Ziziphus subquinquenervia Miq. (from Great Nicobar).
While Rubus praecox is naturalised in the Kashmir Valley, Dioscorea
piscatorum and Ziziphus subquinquenervia were found truly wild,
and Fagopyrum gracilipes occurs as a weed in buckwheat fields and
orchards. Ziziphus subquinquenervia has been resurrected from the
allied Z. elegans Wall. of peninsular Malaysia and Singapore owing
to the distinct diagnostic characters. Their description, phenology,
habitat, and other field observations have been highlighted here
