    ABSTRACT

    Information about the diagnostic features of the various crude drugs belonging to different morphological groups namely starch, barks, leaves, woods, seeds, fruits, roots, rhizomes and galls were collected. In this regard, textbooks prescribed for Pharmacognosy for B. Pharm syllabus were consulted for collecting information regarding the various crude drugs. A computerized database was developed in Oracle 8i for storage and retrieval of all relevant information about the diagnostic features of the various crude drugs. This database can be of immense use to students, teachers and researchers for microcomputerised identification of indigenous drugs.
