New Phenylpropanoid Glycosides from Juniperus communis var. depressa

TAXONOMY OF JUNIPERUS COMMUNIS IN NORTH AMERICA: INSIGHT FROM VARIATION IN nrDNA SNPs

Plants of Juniperus communis L. var. communis, J. c. var. depressa Pursh, J. c. var. jackii Rehdr, J. c. var. saxatilis Pall. were sampled and SNPs from nrDNA were examined. Based on these data and previous data, a new variety of J. communis is recognized: Juniperus communis var. charlottensis R. P. Adams, var. nov. It occurs in muskeg bogs on Queen Charlotte Island, British Columbia and in the...

Phenylpropanoid glycosides from Scrophularia ningpoensis.

Three phenylpropanoid glycosides named ningposides A (3-O-acetyl-2-O-feruloyl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranose), B (4-O-acetyl-2-O-feruloyl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranose) and C (3-O-acetyl-2-O-p-hydroxycinnamoyl-alpha-L-rhamnopyranose) along with the known compounds sibirioside A, cistanoside D, angoroside C, acteoside, decaffeoylacteoside and cistanoside F were obtained from the roots of Scrophularia ningpoensis.

Tyrosinase inhibitory properties of phenylpropanoid glycosides and flavonoids from Teucrium polium L. var. gnaphalodes

Objective(s): In food industry, the inhibition of tyrosinase is very important, because this enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of phenolic compounds found in fruits and vegetables into quinones, which contribute in undesirable color and taste of fruits and vegetables. Teucrium polium L. var. gnaphalodes (Lamiaceae), a wild-growing flowering plant that has many applications in food preparations and...

New Phenylpropanoid Glycosides from Eurya emarginata (Thunb.) Makino†

Analysis of Juniperus communis and its varieties based on DNA fingerprinting

Plants of Juniperus communis L. var. communis, J. c. var. depressa Pursh, J. c. var. hemispherica J. & C. Presl, J. communis var. megistocarpa Fern. & St. John, J. c. var. nipponica (Maxim.) Wils., J. c. var. oblonga hort. ex Loudon and J. c. var. saxatilis Pall. were sampled and DNA fingerprinting (RAPDs, Random Amplified Polymorphic DNAs) was performed. Based on 191 RAPD bands, there was litt...
