Abstract
Indigofera heterantha is locally used for various diseases. In current study we have made an effort to investigate various activities to scientifically validate some of its pharmacological activities. Among in-vitro assays no antibacterial activity was found while low antifungal activity was observed. Similarly low insecticidal and low to moderate phytotoxicity was identified in case of fractions of I. heterantha. This preliminary study is a starting point for further purification and characterization of the active principles responsible for insecticidal and phytotoxic activities
Key words: Indigofera heterantha, antifungal, insecticidal, cytotoxicity, phytotoxicity.
