چکیده

In many plants belonging to angiosperms and gymnosperms the accumulation in leaves of long chain polyprenols and polyprenyl esters during growth in natural habitats depends on the light intensity. The amount of polyprenols in leaves is also positively correlated with the thickness of the leaf blade (SLA, specific leaf area). The polyprenol content of leaves shows seasonal changes with a maximum in autumn and a minimum in early summer with the difference between poorly and well illuminated plants persisting throughout the vegetation season.

The search for polyprenols in dendroflora of Vietnam.

The occurrence of polyprenols in leaves of over 340 species of dendroflora in natural habitats in the regions of Hanoi and Hue in Vietnam was studied. Plant material was collected in the late autumn (October/November) during the end of a vegetation season. Leaves of about 200 plant species did not contain detectable amounts of polyprenols in contrast to few systematic families, e.g. Moraceae, E...

Long-chain betulaprenol-type polyprenols from the leaves of Ginkgo biloba.

A long-chain betulaprenol-type polyprenol mixture was isolated from the leaves of Ginkgo biloba mainly as acetate. The structure was determined by mass spectroscopy, 1H-n.m.r. spectroscopy and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopy. The mixture contained polyprenols-14-22, predominantly polyprenols-17, -18 and -19, and consisted of the dimethylallyl terminal unit (omega-terminal), two trans-isoprene residues,...

Shrubs Associations in Relation to Ecology of Savannah Rangelands at El Suki Area, Sennar State, Sudan

Not all of the Sudan has been covered by post studies; and parts of it seemed more favoured research topic of the others. The first attempt to study the flora of the study area was in 1958, which included in the work of Harrison and Jackson about classification of the Sudan vegetation. The study area was very rich of plant diversity, especially trees and shrubs, because of the high rainfall and...

Changes of free polyamines in the leaves and stems of ‘Kinnow’ mandarin tree as affected by alternate bearing

In order to investigate the seasonal changes and the possible role of the free polyamines in the leaves and stems on the alternate bearing habit of the ‘Kinnow’ mandarin (Citrus reticulata Blanco) trees, a comparative study was conducted to analyze the levels of free polyamines  (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) in the leaves and stems tissues of “on” and &ldquo...
