I, Floristic Composition; Life Form; Habit; Cholistan Desert; Pakistan. Cholistan produces very superior type of carpet wool as compared to that produced in other parts of Pakistan. … The study was concluded with advocating the DNA barcoding as an effective tool for species identification and ITS2 as the best barcode region in identifying medicinal species of Fabaceae and Poaceae. [2], Cholistan was formed during the Pleistocene period. [10], The region became a center for caravan trade, leading to the construction of a dense network of forts in the medieval period - of which the Derawar Fort is the best preserved example. We surveyed the Badro Mountain and its base area for floristic inventory. The absence of vegetation and water makes it difficult for the earth to absorb solar radiation. Jungle 2. reduction of gastric acid secretion (proton pump inhibitors, H 2 receptors antagonists, anticholinergics, prostaglandin analogues), neutralization of gastric acid secretion (antacids), protection of GIT mucosa (sucralfate, bismuth subsalicylate) and use of antimicrobial drugs like amoxicillin, clarithromycin, tetracycline and metronidazole [4]. Like the flora in the area, the fauna have evolved incredible characteristics in order to survive in the extreme Namib Desert. All rights reserved. During the last three years from 2001 to 2003, attempts have been made to collect and observe the amphibians and reptiles in different parts of Cholistan Desert.

Cholistan is one of the four major deserts of Pakistan in the South of Bahawalpur District, and it extends through the Nara and Thar Deserts of Sindh between 27°42′N and 29°45′N latitude and 69°52′E and 75°24′E longitude, at an altitude of about 112 m (367 ft) above sea level (Fig. Comparison of six barcode regions showed that ITS2 has the highest number of variable sites (209/360) for tested Fabaceae and (106/365) Poaceae species, the highest species level identification (40%) in BLASTn procedure, distinct DNA barcoding gap, 100% correct species identification in BM and BCM functions of TAXONDNA, and clear cladding pattern with high nodal support in phylogenetic trees in both families. Notwithstanding the Tiliaceae family comprised total 6 numbers of species. [13] The high density of settlements in Cholistan suggest it may have been one of the most productive regions of the Indus Valley Civilization. In the desert areas there are wide ranges of temperature throughout the day and night. Brassicaceae, Cyperaceae, Mollugina-, ceae, Nyctaginaceae, Polygonaceae and Rhamnaceae, have 3 species each. Flora of Cholistan by S. Murtaza Hussain. Leather work is another important local cottage industry due to the large number of livestock here. I & II, Old Connaught.

Therefore, it was planned to broadcast the seeds of indigenous flora the form of seed balls and direct seed broadcast. [6] The river carried significant amounts of water, and flowed until at least where Derawar Fort is now located. These forts are part of the Tentative List of UNESCO World Heritage Sites,[6] and run roughly parallel to the Indus and Sutlej Rivers 40 miles to the south. [13] Smaller forts in the area include Bara, Bhagla, Duheinwala, Falji, Kandera, Liara, Murid, Machki, Nawankot, and Phulra forts. [9], Camels in particular are prized in Cholistan for their meat and milk, use as transportation, and for entertainment such as racing and camel dancing. 1200 BC regularly and became irregular about 600 BC. [11] Soil in the region is also highly saline. This work, A floristic survey of Cholistan desert was carried out during 2009-2011 and total of 38 families, 106 genera and 154 species were documented from the area. FLORA AND FAUNA . [5] In the post-Harappan period, Cholistan was part of the Cemetery H culture which grew as a surviving regional variant of the Harappan Culture,[5] which was then followed by the Painted Grey Ware culture. These lower levels of essential minerals and metals indicate their lower demands by the desert vegetation. In Cholistan desert, two sources of water, one is rainfall and other is sub-soil, water. This needs identification of biological components of ecosystems. During the present study people including local elders (Siana), herbal and homoeopathic practitioners and spiritual healers were interviewed.
