PHARMACOGNOSTICAL AND PHYTOCHEMICAL STUDIES ON LEAVES OF STEVIA REBAUDIANA LINN
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Biotechnology - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Stevia rebaudiana (Bert) is a plant of compositae family and native to Paraguay, its sweetness and calorie free property increased its demand tremendously.
