Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Besides vitexin, two compounds have been identified from Mollugo oppositifolia and identified as VITEXIN 7-glucoside and 2″-p -coumaroylviteXin 7-gluoside as discussed by the authors.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Seedlings of a mutant of Silene pratensis contain isovitexin 7-O-galactoside 6-O″-arabinoside in the rosette-type leaves but not in the sessile stem leaves, indicating regulation of both processes by the same photoreceptor.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Isovitexin seldom induced any cytologic abberations, but promoted mitosis up to 48 hours from treatment and suppressed it thereafter, rendering it useful in studies on cell cycle and as a cytokinin-like substance.
Abstract: SUMMARYAt 10−3M, isovitexin, a C-glycosylflavone isolated from leaves of Rhynchosia minima (Leguminosae), inhibits cell plate formation resulting in the production of binucleate and occasionally multinucleate cells. A 48-hour treatment caused nucleolar fission leading to multinucleolate condition. At 10−5M and 10−7M, isovitexin seldom induced any cytologic abberations, but promoted mitosis up to 48 hours from treatment and suppressed it thereafter. The potentialities of isovitexin render it useful in studies on cell cycle and as a cytokinin-like substance.
