The plants were lessThan i greaterThan Ocimum sanctum L., Hyptis suaveolens lessThan /i greaterThan (L) Poit lessThan i greaterThan ., Croton tiglium lessThan /i greaterThan L. lessThan i greaterThan , Physalis minima lessThan /i greaterThan L. lessThan i greaterThan , Tephrosia villosa lessThan /i greaterThan (L) Pers. lessThan i greaterThan , Malachra capitata lessThan /i greaterThan L. lessThan i greaterThan , Cleome viscosa lessThan /i greaterThan L. lessThan i greaterThan , and Galphimia glauca lessThan /i greaterThan Cav lessThan i greaterThan . lessThan /i greaterThan Qualitative phytochemical analysis of these plants confirms the presence of various phytochemicals like alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, phlobatannin, terpenoid, saponin, steroid and cardiac glycosides in their aqueous leaf extracts.
