Morphological and Biochemical Characteristics on Different Accession of Pegaga

Objectives: To examine morphological and biochemical characteristics of commonly available accessions of Centellaasiatica in Malaysia. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Four accessions of Pegaga designated as UPM01, UPM02, UPM03 and UPM04 were collected throughout Malaysia and their morphological charac...
