An extended phytochemical survey of Australian species of Acacia: Chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic aspects

Reads0

TLDR
An earlier phytochemical survey of the flavonoid content of heartwoods and barks of Acacia species is extended to a much wider range distributed throughout the Australian continent, and representing most sections and subsections of the genus.

Heartwood and Tree Exudates

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the use of Sapwood in logging cross-sections and discuss the effect of the environment on Sapwood's growth rate and growth rate of trees.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overview of the generic status of Acacia (Leguminosae: Mimosoideae)

TL;DR: The new data clearly show that the genus Acacia, as presently defined, is not monophyletic and it is recommended that these each be recognised as a distinct genus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytochemistry of Acacia—sensu lato

TL;DR: New studies of the genus Acacia confirm that Acacia is an agglomeration of at least five discrete groups, each with somewhat distinct chemistry.

Other Plant Polysaccharides

A.M. Stephen
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss important sources of polysaccharides and their molecular constitutions and the relationships of the hemicelluloses and pectic substances in primary cell walls to the poly-saccharide available in abundance from tissues in developed, mature plant stuffs.

Flavans and proanthocyanidins

Lawrence J. Porter
- 01 Jan 1988 - 
TL;DR: Haslam as discussed by the authors summarized the historical developments in the chemistry and biochemistry of this important and complex group of plant phenolics and discussed their relationship with condensed tannins and aspects of their characteristic chemical and spectroscopic properties.

A phytochemical survey of the Australian species of Acacia

TL;DR: Examination by paper chromatography of the flavonoid content of the heartwoods and barks of sixty-one species of Acacia native to Australia permits broad subdivision into four groups, depending on variations of the phenolic hydroxyl pattern.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytochemical Survey of the Heartwood Flavonoids of Acacia Species From Arid Zones of Australia

TL;DR: In this paper, the main components of the Acacia heartwood were found to have phenolic hydroxylation patterns typical of the subsections of the genus Acacia, including 7,8,4'-trihydroxy-3- methoxyflavone, 7, 8,3',4'-tetrahydroxy- 3-methoxyilavone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isomeric leucofisetinidins from Acacia mearnsii

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the heartwood extract of the black wattle ( Acacia mearnsii ) and showed that the flavandiol, (+)-mollisacacidin (2,3- trans -3,4- trans configuration), is accompanied in low concentration by the trans-cis and cis-Cis isomers.

Peltogynoids of Goniorrhachis marginata

TL;DR: Two novel types of natural peltogynoids represented by the flavanones (Vb), (Ve) and (Vg) and the chalcone (VIc) were encountered during the examination of the heartwood constituents of Goniorrhachis marginata Taub.
