This paper shows that the alcoholic extract from Polygonatum odoratum and Cuscuta australis increases the percentage of phagocytosis and the index of phagocytosis of macrophages as well as hemolysin and proliferation of lymphocytes up to normal level in mice with II+ burn injury covering 5% body surface. It follows that both Polygonatum odoratum and Cuscuta australis may serve as a kind of immunopotentiator for mammals.

To elucidate the morphological diversity and genetic characteristics of the pollen of species, this study utilized a total of 46 samples encompassing six species and one variety of . Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed to examine the morphological traits of the pollen and to analyze the evolutionary patterns and genetic relationships among species. The results indicate that the pollen grains of the 46 germplasm are uniformly characterized as monads, heteropolar, bilaterally symmetrical, atreme, and possess a mono-sulcus.

Article Synopsis
- Polygonatum odoratum var. pluriflorum, or Lesser Solomon's seal, is a perennial plant found in temperate regions, valued for its medicinal properties, including tea production.
- In September 2021, a new type of anthracnose, caused by the fungus Colletotrichum, was reported affecting 20-30% of these plants in Chuncheon and Wanju, Korea, showing symptoms like leaf yellowing and brown lesions.
- The disease progressed during the rainy season, leading to significant leaf blight, and five fungal isolates were collected for study, with details about their morphological characteristics noted for further research.
