Xanthones from Vismia latifolia [PDF]
A new xanthone,1,4,8-trihydroxyxanthone (1,4,8-trihydroxy-9H-xanthen-9-one), was isolated from the roots of Vismia latifolia (Guttiferae). Four other known xanthones were isolated: 1,5-dihydroxy-8-methoxyxanthone, 1,7-dihydroxyxanthone, 1,6-dihydroxy-7 ...

Essential Oil Composition of Leaves (Guttiferae) [PDF]
The essential oil from Vismia macrophylla Kunth (Guttiferae) leaves, extracted by hydrodistillation, was analyzed by GC/MS. The oil obtained (yield 0.11%) contained twenty-eight compounds, which were identified from their retention indices and by ...

Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals differences in MADS-box genes of different hypericum in Changbai Mountains. [PDF]
Abstract To explore the differences between the hypericum in the Changbai Mountains, we carried out a transcriptome analysis of two common hypericums in the area, which was Hypericum attenuatum Choisy and Hypericum longistylum Oliv. We screened the MADS‐box genes to analyze divergence time and evolutionary selection expression, and determine their ...

Flavonoids: A Review of Antibacterial Activity Against Gram-Negative Bacteria. [PDF]
The rise in bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics has led to the search for alternative antimicrobial agents, such as flavonoids, which are widely distributed in plants and known for their antibacterial properties. This review examines the antibacterial activity of flavonoids against Gram‐negative bacteria and identifies gaps in current ...

High intraspecific growth variability despite strong evolutionary legacy in an Amazonian forest
Based on 36 years of diameter surveys for 7961 trees of 138 species, we found the greatest variation in growth between individuals within the same species in an Amazonian forest, although taxonomy explained a third of the variation. Species growth was conserved up to the genus and predicted by root, wood and leaf traits.

Past human‐induced ecological legacies as a driver of modern Amazonian resilience
Abstract People have modified landscapes throughout the Holocene (the last c. 11,700 years) by modifying soils, burning forests, cultivating and domesticating plants, and directly and indirectly enriched and depleted plant abundances. These activities also took place in Amazonia, which is the largest contiguous piece of rainforest in the world, and for
