Taxonomic status of Oenocarpus bataua (Euterpeae, Arecaceae) inferred from plastid sequences [PDF]
With the aim of testing the evolutionary relationships between Oenocarpus bataua (formerly Jessenia bataua) and other Oenocarpus species (Arecaceae), a phylogenetic study of tribe Euterpeae (Arecaceae) was conducted using 3,6 kb of non-coding chloroplast

The global abundance of tree palms [PDF]
Aim Palms are an iconic, diverse and often abundant component of tropical ecosystems that provide many ecosystem services. Being monocots, tree palms are evolutionarily, morphologically and physiologically distinct from other trees, and these differences

Pheophorbide Derivatives Isolated From Açaí Berries (Euterpea oleracea) Activate an Antioxidant Response Element In Vitro [PDF]
Activity-guided fractionation was used to isolate and identify 2 components of the Brazilian açaí berry ( Euterpe oleracea Mart.) with the ability to induce antioxidant response element (ARE)-dependent gene transcription in human hepatoma (HepG2) cells. Using an ARE-luciferase reporter construct in cultured HepG2 cells, a suite of fractions from dried
