From the aerial parts of Ajuga salicifolia (L.) Schreber, a new ionone glycoside (3beta-hydroxy-7,8-dihydro-4-oxo-beta-ionol-9-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside) was isolated, along with the known compounds, corchoionoside C, 8-O-acetylmioporoside, ajugol, harpagide, 8-O-acetylharpagide, lavandulifolioside and leonosides A and B. This is the first report of the occurrence of ionone glycosides and 8-O-ac...

We studied the efficacy of water-soluble extracts from four Ajuga spp on the post-embryonic development of two exopterygota (sucking insect) species. To allow comparison between different Ajuga species, results are expressed in terms of quantity of plant extracted per litre of test solution. Crude methanolic extracts of all Ajuga plants tested, with the exception of A genevensis, showed conside...

The 7S and 11S seed storage proteins from four perennials related to soybean (Glycine canescens, G. tomentella, G. tabacina, and G. clandestina) were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. Each species yielded a unique electrophoretic pattern that varied in the total number of bands and their relative mobilities. In every case, the electrophoretic patterns were substantially di...
