Diterpenes from Sideritis argyrea
The known ent-kaurene diterpenes 1-9 and a new ent-labdane, ent-6beta,8alpha-dihydroxylabda-13(16),14-diene (10), were isolated from the whole plant of Sideritis argyrea. Their structures were elucidated based on one- and two-dimensional NMR techniques and HRMS.

Divergent roles of ent‐kaurene oxidase paralogs in rice momilactone biosynthesis
Rice contains a five‐gene tandem array of genes encoding members of the ent‐kaurene oxidase (KO) family, with OsKOL4 and OsKOL5 playing divergent roles in momilactone metabolism, but both acting in the production of antifungal and antibacterial phytoalexins, which are important for disease resistance.

ABSTRACT Microalgae such as Chlorella vulgaris are gaining attention as sustainable and nutritionally valuable feed ingredients, with the potential to partially replace soybean meal in broiler diets. However, dietary inclusion of 20% C. vulgaris has been attempted, but negatively affected growth performance due to limited digestibility.

Two new cneorubin related diterpenes from the leaves of Guarea guidonia (Meliaceae)
Two new and two known cneorubin related diterpenes were isolated from the leaves of Guarea guidonia (Meliaceae). One of the new diterpenes has the unusual trans bicyclo[5.1.0]octane ring system. The structures were elucidated by spectral data.

Diterpenes from the Brazilian Brown Alga (Dictyotaceae, Phaeophyta)
Diterpenes from the Dictyoteae tribe appear to be valuable taxonomic markers and have showed, for various species, strong correlation with morphological data. Dictyota crispata Lamouroux is close to D. cervicornis Kützing.

Biosynthesis and accumulation of tanshinones in the periderm of Salvia miltiorrhiza during secondary root growth. Summary Perennial herbs develop long‐lived roots that undergo repeated cycles of secondary growth, during which the periderm functions as a protective barrier and a major site of specialized metabolite accumulation.
