Despite sequestration of toxins being a common coevolutionary response to plant defence in phytophagous insects, the macroevolution of the traits involved is largely unaddressed.

Host plants and experimental warming impact fitness and infection outcomes in a migratory butterfly
Host plant species interacted with temperature treatment to shape monarch survival and infection probabilities. Temperature modified the expected role of tropical milkweed, which did not confer OE resistance to monarchs under elevated temperatures.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of an ethanol extract of Roupellina (Strophanthus) boivinii from the rainforest of Madagascar afforded the six new cardenolide glycosides boivinides 1–6, as well as the four known cardenolide glycosides digitoxigenin 3-O-[β ...

Cardenolide and glucosinolate accumulation in shoot cultures of Erysimum crepidifolium Rchb.
Erysimum crepidifolium Rchb. is one of the few Brassicaceae species accumulating glucosinolates as well as cardenolides. This is possibly providing a selective advantage in evolution as both compounds are part of a chemical defense system.

Studies on growth and cardenolide production of Digitalis lanata tissue cultures
Digitalis lanata cell cultures grown as small undifferentiated aggregates in suspension culture can be redifferentiated into green embryos that produce cardenolides.

Cardenolide Glycosides from Elaeodendron australe var. integrifolium
Extracts from dried leaf and stems of Elaeodendron australe var. integrifolium (Celastraceae) collected in South East Queensland, Australia, were active in an assay that measured Ca2+ driven expression of IL-2/luciferase designed to identify inhibitors ...

Cryptosin, a cardenolide from the leaves of Cryptolepis buchanani
A new cardenolide named cryptosin was isolated from the leaves of Cryptolepis buchanani. By spectral studies and single crystal X-ray crystallography, cryptosin was found to possess a novel structure.

The monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus L., has evolved to be insensitive to milkweed cardenolides via genetic modifications of Na+/K+-ATPase. There is concern for insecticide exposures near agriculture, with little information on monarch caterpillar ...

Cardiac glycosides, known ligands of the sodium pump, are widely used in the treatment of heart failure, such as digoxin and digitoxin. Besides this important activity, other biological activities, such as the antiviral activity, have been described for ...

The Effect of Residual Roundup on Showy Milkweed Growth and Cardenolide Production
Western monarch butterfly populations have sharply declined over the last three decades largely due to destruction of their habitat and larval food source, milkweed (Asclepias spp.).
