Chemotaxonomic value of alkaloids in Solanum nigrum complex
TL;DR: Several glycoalkaloids and their aglycones were analysed that were shown to be a valuable tool to resolve the international taxonomic controversy based on morphological characters and demonstrated significant distances among S. nigrum complex.

Tiina Särkinen,Péter Poczai,Gloria Estela Barboza,Gerard M. van der Weerden,Maria Baden,Sandra Knapp +5 more
TL;DR: This is the first taxonomic overview since the 19th century of the entire group in the Old World, including Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe and islands of the Pacific, with complete synonymy, morphological descriptions, distribution maps and common names and uses for all 19 species occurring outside the Americas.

Taxonomic Identification and Characterization of African Nightshades ( Solanum L. Section Solanum )
TL;DR: Most of the section Solanum species were distinguishable and easily identified, but the exception was S. florulentum and S. tarderemotum which were identified tentatively and assigned respective names, but are difficult to differentiate and require further studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential Fluorescent Chromosome Banding of Solanum nigrum L. and Solanum villosum L. from Bangladesh
TL;DR: The overall karyotypic features suggested S. villosum as an ancient auto-tetraploid of S. americanum which in course of time has started regular meiosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in essential oil content of berries and leaves of Solanum sarrachoides (Solanaceae) and the effects on oviposition of the tomato spider mite (Tetranychus evansi)
TL;DR: Essential oils from leaves and berries of Solanum sarrachoides and their monoterpene constituents play a role in regulating oviposition in T. evansi and compared favorably with the two positive controls.

Systematics of Solanum sect. Solanum (Solanaceae) in North America
TL;DR: The present study covers the North American species of the Solanum sect, a cos- mopolitan group of about 30 annual or short-lived perennial, herbaceous species of weeds, and an operational approach using techniques of numerical taxonomy to discover discontinuities by which species may be recognized has been used.

Chromosome numbers in flowering plants from Madeira
TL;DR: Chromosome numbers of 40 taxa are reported for the first time from Macaronesia, those of another 17 taxa for the second time from Madeira.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crossing relationships among diploid species of the solanum nigrum complex in north america
TL;DR: Crosses were made in all combinations of the six diploid species of the Solanum nigrum complex that occur in North America to investigate phylogenetic relationships and hybrid sterility was not considered to have special taxonomic significance in this complex.
