Two new cardiac glycosides were isolated from the seeds of Erysimum cheiranthoides. Their structures were characterized as strophanthidin glycosides of 3-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)-3-O-acetyl-beta-D-digitoxopyranosyl and 3-O-beta-D-glucpyranosyl-(1-->4)-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1-->4)-3-O-acetyl-beta-D-digitoxopyranosyl.

Figure 4 In a study of diseases caused by Xanthomonas campestris on UK nurserygrown wallflowers (Erysimum cheiri), one isolate (P764) obtained in 1990 from Sussex differed from the others. The affected plants (cv. Bedder Mixed), showed distorted growth with chlorotic and necrotic spots, but no sectored V-shaped wilting, the most common symptom associated with xanthomonads in wallflowers. Other ...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY We have developed and optimized microsatellite loci from a genomic library of Erysimum mediohispanicum. Microsatellites were also tested for cross-amplification in 31 other Erysimum species. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 10 microsatellite loci were successfully amplified. They were polymorphic for 81 E. mediohispanicum individuals from two locations in Sierra Nevada (sou...


 Terpenoid contents of traditionally used ethnobotanically important plants (n=25) were determined. Ethanol extracts seeds, fruits, pods, branches, bark, rhizome and whole plant parts prepared preliminary phytochemical investigation was carried out. Total terpenoid in ethanol determined through qualitative quantitative analytical assay by Salkowski test. Results analysis revealed that the...

Wallflower (Erysimum cheiri (L.) Crantz) is a common medicinal plant in Persian medicine and nowadays some traditional products from wallflower are consumed on global markets. The aim of the present study was to study the phytochemical constituents of wallflower and discuss safety evaluations related to the traditional wallflower preparations. Major Persian scholars (e.g. Avicenna) boo...
