History

The Department was established in the year 1962 and was housed in three halls of Milind College of Arts, which was shifted to its present premises in 1967. The founder head was late Prof. K. B. Deshpande. In the early years the Department carried researches in two streams i. e. Plant Pathology & Mycology and Angiosperms and subsequently two more areas of Physiology and Cytogenetics were added. In the year 1967, the Department produced the first Ph. D. degree. The faculties have contributed the Botany of the region and published around 40 books. Some of the masterpieces are Angiosperm Taxonomy (1984), Tata Mc Graw Hill; Flora of Marathwada (2 valumes, 1998), Gazetteer of Maharashtra (2010) Govt. of Maharashtra etc. Till date, the Department has produced more than 350 Ph. D. candidates. For the enrichment of the knowledge of the students, research scholars and teachers, there are several lecture series namely - Scientists lecture series, UGC extension lecture series, Teacher exchange programme, Late Prof. K. B. Deshpande memorial lecture, Late Prof. V. N. Naik memorial lecture series etc.

Herbarium was established in 1969 with the incorporation of the flora of Osmanabad and later on go on enriching day by day. All the students of Late Prof. V. N. Naik have collected the flowering plant specimens from respective districts of Marathwada. There are special collections like - Late Prof. V. N. Naik: genus Chlorophytum; Dr. M. A. Wadood Khan: family Cyperaceae; Prof. D. S. Pokle and Prof. Arvind Dhabe: genus Alysicarpus; Prof. Arvind Dhabe: genus Terminalia, Tephrosia, Cassia, Medicinal plants of Aurangabad, Jalna, Parbhani and Nanded districts, Flowering plants from all over India; Prof. M. M. Sardesai: genus Sida; Prof. M. M. Sardesai and Dr. Ravikiran Govekar: Flora of Gadchiroli etc. It is Internationally Recognized with Acronym 'BAMU'.

We offer M. Sc. and Ph. D. programs in Botany. We have four specializations like - Cytology and Genetics, Plant Pathology, Taxonomy of Angiosperms and Plant Physiology. The Department is now a two storied building with one seminar hall, one lecture hall, 5 laboratories for M. Sc., 13 research laboratories, museum, glass house, tissue culture laboratory and molecular biology laboratory, herbarium and Botanical garden. It is also equipped with photographic section and Departmental library. In addition to this, each teacher has independent cabin with all facilities including computer, scanner, printer, refrigerator etc. "BAMU" is an internationally recognized Herbarium in-housing 1,04,000 plant specimens. It is the only Herbarium among the Indian Universities who has got the right to cast 2 institutional votes in the Nomenclature Section of International Botanical Congress held at Shenzhen, China in July 2017. Prof. Arvind S. Dhabe has casted his 1 personal vote and 2 institutional votes on behalf of "BAMU" Herbarium. Our Botanic Garden is considered to be the largest Botanic Garden among Indian Universities having 215 species of trees and other 600 species of Botanical interest. It has been enlisted in the Directory of Botanic Gardens in India. Both the Herbarium and Botanic Garden are proved to be important tools for teaching and research in Botany.

The Herbarium:

Herbarium is a place where dried plant specimens are stored. It was established in the year 1969 by Dr. V. N. Naik, the pioneer Taxonomist of this region. It was initiated with the flowering plants of Osmanabad district and later on collections from all over India have been incorporated. The Herbarium of the Department harbours almost each and every species from Marathwada region. At present it has more than 100000 specimens and 57 type specimens. It has collections from foreign countries either on donation or exchange basis, like Brazil, England, Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Austria, South Africa, The Netherlands etc. This is internationally recognized and its acronym is “BAMU”. It has special collection of Medicinal plants, Family Cyperaceae, Asteraceae, genus Chlorophytum, Alysicarpus, Terminalia, Tephrosia, etc. 57 new plants have been described by the scholars from this Herbarium. It is a comprehensive collection of plants and has developed as a centre of reference for taxonomists. The University has sanctioned a special grant of 6 lakh for the development and maintenance of herbarium which represents biodiversity. This is one of the largest Herbarium among Indian Universities.

Museum:

The museum is rather small but it is in budding stage. It harbours plant species of botanical importance. These plant specimens are kept in the museum for general observation as well as for class work material.

Thrust Area

Research Groups

Plant Physiology: is mainly around nitrogen metabolism and organic productivity. The various aspects into which research in the latter field has branched off were agronomy, intercropping etc., and a dietary supplement in humans. These efforts were acclaimed and the Films Division, Govt. of India, Produced a 16-minute documentary on this research. The other areas around it are silage, DPJ utilization, green manures and compost. It has directed its attention to biotechnological aspects like enzyme immobilization and tissue culture studies.

Plant Pathology: It was initiated on Mycology and fungal enzymology, subsequently, research in soil microbiology, pesticide resistance, seed technology and pathology, aflatoxin, bacteriology microbial ecology and aerobiology are undertaken.

Cytogenetics: This section is engaged in the fundamental cytological aspects of some angiosperm taxa e. g. Aloineae and Maydeae, including aneuploids, apart from breeding work and mutagenesis. It has developed strains of legumes which may find their way in the market as a savoury vegetable and in tackling the problem of protein malnutrition existing in tribal.

Angiosperm Taxonomy: This section covers the discipline of floristics, biosystematics, cytotaxonomy; vegetative, floral and developmental anatomy, evolutionary floral morphology and biology Pharmacognosy, Phytochemistry. Chemotaxonomy, Bioprospecting and Molecular taxonomy have been under taken recently.
