Fatty acids, sterols and hydrocarbons in the leaves from eleven species of mangrove
Ronald W. Hogg,Francis T. Gillan +1 more
TL;DR: The fatty acid, sterol and hydrocarbon compositions of the fresh leaves from eleven species of mangroves, cultivated in a shadehouse, showed several chemotaxonomically significant differences between the species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acids as biological markers for bacterial symbionts in sponges.
Francis T. Gillan,Ivan L. Stoilov,Janice E. Thompson,Ronald W. Hogg,Clive R. Wilkinson,Carl Djerassi +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of five Great Barrier Reef sponges was performed and the results indicated that phototrophic cyanobacterial symbionts (blue-green algae) present in three of the sponged organisms are chemically distinct, whereas the other two organisms do not contain symbiotic organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
The sterol and fatty acid compositions of seven tropical seagrasses from north Queensland, Australia
TL;DR: The seagrass species were clearly separated into five chemical groups using the combined fatty acid and sterol composition data and the need for a reappraisal of the taxonomic position of Halophila was indicated.
