Abstract

In India, Moringa (Moringaceae) has a single genus with 13 species. It’s have distinct phytochemicals which are used in dietary ,medicinal and other benefits. Its leaves offer numerous therapeutic properties that can be used to cure diseases such as skin tumours, gastrointestinal disorders, fatigue, diabetes, fire burn wounds, jaundice, blood pressure reduction, and a variety of other ailments. The present research is focused on recording difference in Phytochemicals and Total Flavonoid Content of Agro- Climatic Zone of south Gujarat with its seasonal variations. The leaves of Moringa concanensis Nimmo contains higher quantity of flavonoid in Monsoon season as compared to summer.
