Bioactivity-guided isolation of anti-inflammatory limonins from Chukrasia tabularis. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr, 2022
Isolating limonins from Chukrasia tabularis including two new limonins and twelve known limonins. The limonins showed significant anti‐inflammatory activity in LPS‐induced RAW 264.7 cells. Compound 1 notably inhibited the production of NF‐κB, TNF‐α and IL‐6 in macrophages.

Long-Term Hydraulic Adjustment of Three Tropical Moist Forest Tree Species to Changing Climate [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Xylem hydraulic adjustment to global climatic changes was reported from temperate, boreal, and Mediterranean tree species. Yet, the long-term hydraulic adjustment in tropical tree species has not been studied so far.

Meliaceae genomes provide insights into wood development and limonoids biosynthesis. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J, 2023
The chromosome‐level genome of Azadirachta indica and Melia azedarach were provided. Meliaceae should be classified into two subfamilies: Cedreloideae and Melioideae. Cellulose/hemicellulose biosynthesis‐related genes expanded notably in woody Toona sinensis. Expanded special oxidosqualene cyclase catalogues help diversify Sapindales skeletons.

Joint effects of climate, tree size, and year on annual tree growth derived from tree-ring records of ten globally distributed forests. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol, 2022
Tree rings provide an invaluable long‐term record for understanding how climate and other drivers shape tree growth and forest productivity. We apply a novel analytical approach that simultaneously models nonlinear effects of primary climate drivers, stem diameter, and calendar year to 40 species across 10 globally distributed forests.
