Abstract
Phytochemical screening of ten different locally available plant parts was done in methanol extract. Tannin, quinine, terpenoid, flavonoid, steroid, alkaloid, cardiac glycoside, glycoside, volatile oils, etc were the phytoconstituents found in plants. The study of the effect of phytoconstituents in the germination of Pisum sativum seeds revealed that the phytoconstituents present in plant extracts showed the cytotoxic effect in living cells i.e. in germinating Pisum sativum seeds. The phytoconstituents present in the plant extract showed an effect on cell proliferation and growth. Hence these plants could be used to develop drugs against cancer cells and also may be effective against microbes and bacteria
