  "abstract": "<p>The present studies have been planned to evaluate ovicidal efficacy of&nbsp;<em>Ziziphus mauritiana</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Terminalia arjuna</em>&nbsp;leaves. For this purpose, egg hatch test (EHT) was conducted on nematode ova to investigate the&nbsp;<em>in vitro&nbsp;</em>ovicidal effects of crude aqueous extract (CAE) and crude aqueous methanolic extracts (CAME) of the leaves of the plants. Lethal concentration 50 (LC50) values of CAE and CAME of&nbsp;<em>Ziziphus mauritiana</em>&nbsp;leaves were 0.1773 and 0.6778 while of&nbsp;<em>Terminalia arjuna&nbsp;</em>leaves were 1.502 and 3.002 respectively. This study shows that&nbsp;<em>Ziziphus mauritiana</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Terminalia arjuna</em>&nbsp;leaves possess&nbsp;<em>in vitro&nbsp;</em>anthelmintic activity. The study also suggests further large scale pharmacological and toxicological studies for their use in veterinary medicine.</p>",
