目的：在当地社区中，许多种卡廷加植物群被用作药物。近几十年来，这些物种的知识和使用在该地区不断扩大。我们试图记录塞阿拉州农村社区用于治疗各种疾病的药用植物的当地多样性。巴西，并评估有前途的药用物种bioprospectingstudies.Methods：一个民族植物学调查进行了自由列表和半结构化的采访，以表明药用植物脱颖而出，物种的相对重要性（RI）所提到的关键线人（20），一般线人在社区（71）和所有线人（91），进行了分析。根据知情人共识因子（ICF）的人类身体系统中脱颖而出的物种组也evaluated.Results：共记录了119种，与92个健康问题。在这些物种中，100个被关键信息提供者引用，86个被一般信息提供者引用。19种植物具有广泛的用途，包括：Myracrodruon urundeuva Allemao，Bauhinia cheilanta（Bong.）Steud，厚膜衣Hymenaea courbaril L.关键信息提供者列举了33种特有种，其中9种具有较大的相对重要性。一般信息提供者列举了19种特有种，其中2种具有最大的相对重要性。结论：该社区药用植物种类丰富，具有明显的多样性。有些物种既有较高的相对重要性，也有较高的共识因素的线人，这些特定的物种建议进行生物勘探研究。(C)2010爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司版权所有。
Objectives: Many species of the Caatinga flora are used as medicines in local communities. In recent decades, the knowledge and use of these species has been expanding within this region We attempted to record the local diversity of medicinal plants used to treat various diseases in a rural community in the state of Ceara. Brazil, and to evaluate the promising medicinal species for bioprospecting studies.Methods: An ethnobotanical survey was conducted using free list and semi-structured interviews To indicate medicinal plants that stood out, the relative importance (RI) of species mentioned by key-informants (20), by general Informants in the community (71) and by all informants (91), was analyzed. The group of species that stood out for human body systems based on the informant consensus factor (ICF) was also evaluated.Results: A total of 119 species were recorded that were associated with 92 health problems. Of these species, 100 were cited by key-informants and 86 were cited by general informants. Nineteen species showed a great versatility of use, including the following: Myracrodruon urundeuva Allemao, Bauhinia cheilanta (Bong.) Steud, Hymenaea courbaril L. Mentha x villosa Huds Ziziphus joazeiro Mart, and Ruta graveolens L Key-informants cited 33 exclusive species, from which nine presented greater relative importance General informants cited 19 exclusive species, 2 with greatest relative importance The therapeutic properties were grouped into 16 body system categories These grouping categories included skin diseases and diseases of the subcutaneous tissue; sensory system (ears) disorders; respiratory disorders; and injuries, poisoning and other external symptoms.Conclusion: The great diversity of medicinal plants used in the community is evident. Some species had both high relative importance and high consensus factors among the informants; these particular species are recommended for bioprospecting studies. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.
