Chemical and Genetic Study of two Ligularia Hybrids in Shangrila County, Yunnan Province, China

Nat Prod Commun. 2016 Aug;11(8):1057-1060.

Abstract

The composition of root chemicals was examined for samples of L. cyathiceps x L. duciformis, L. duciformis x L. yunnanensis, and L. yunnanensis. Various furanoeremophilanes were isolated from a sample of L. cyathiceps x L. duciformis and found to be very similar to those isolated from L. cyathiceps. Lupeol and docosyl ferulate were isolated from L. yunnanensis, L. duciformis, and L. duciformis x L. yunnanensis.
