R 1, Ayona Jaydev2, Divya M U 3, Jisha K4 1, 2, 3, 4PG Department of Environmental Sciences, All Saints’ College, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala Abstract: The study was done to evaluate and compare the phytochemical properties of selected native and exotic fruits. Earlier, only native fruits were available in any place but now, fruits from throughout the world can be procured from any place. Hence in order to compare the change in alkaloid if any, this work was designed. The fruits selected for investigation were five native fruits (Artocarpus heterophyllus, Mangifera indica L., Flacourtia jangomas, Carica papaya L., Syzygium jambos) and four exotic fruits (Hylocereus polyrhizus, Actinidia deliciosa, Psidium guajava, Dimocarpus longon). The result showed the presence of alkaloid in all the nine fruit varieties selected for the study. Native fruits were found to have a high representation of alkaloid content and exotic fruits also showed significant concentrations. Native fruit lovi-lovi has the highest peak (1002.74 µg/g) and longon has the lowest (434.25 µg/g)for alkaloids. Alkaloid content of other fruits are dragon fruit (780.55 µg/g), kiwi(589.04 µg/g), Thai guava (435.62 µg/g), papaya (524.93 µg/g), jack fruit (779.45 µg/g), rose apple (554.79 µg/g), and mango (850.96 µg/g).

W. CHASEl Summary, A phylogenetic analysis of 589 plastid rbcl. gene sequences representing nearly all eudicot families (a total of 308 families; seven photosynthetic and four parasitic families are missing) was performed, and bootstrap re-sampling was used to assess support for clades. Based on these data, the ordinal classification of eudicots is revised following the previous classification of angiosperms by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group (APG) , Putative additional orders are discussed (e.g. Dilleniales, Escalloniales, VitaiRs) , and several additional families are assigned to orders for future updates of the APG classification. The use of rbcl. alone in such a large matrix was found to be practical in discovering and providing bootstrap support for most orders, Combination of these data with other matrices for the rest of the angiosperms should provide the framework for a complete phylogeny to be used in macro evolutionary studies, !:--':TRODL'CTlON The angiosperms are the first division of organisms to have been re-classified largely on the basis of molecular data analysed phylogenetically (APG 1998). Several large scale molecular phylogenies have been produced for the angiosperms, based on both plastid rbcL (Chase et al.

Flacourtia Turbinata (Salicaceae: Flacourtieae), a New Species from Yunnan, China
Phytotaxa 94 (2): 56–60 (2013) ISSN 1179-3155 (print edition) www.mapress.com/phytotaxa/ Article PHYTOTAXA Copyright © 2013 Magnolia Press ISSN 1179-3163 (online edition) http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/phytotaxa.94.2.4 Flacourtia turbinata (Salicaceae: Flacourtieae), a new species from Yunnan, China HONGJIN DONG1,2 & HUA PENG1,* 1Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, CN-650201, Kunming, China. 2Graduate University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, CN-100049, Beijing, China. Email: [email protected] *Author for correspondence. Email: [email protected] Abstract A new species of Flacourtia from Yingjiang, SW Yunnan, China, bordering with Burma, is described and illustrated. Flacourtia turbinata is similar to F. jangomas in leaf and flower shape, but can be easily distinguished for its triplinerved leaf venation, extraordinary long sepals, turbinate fruit and pubescent leaves and twigs when young. Introduction The genus Flacourtia Comm. ex L’Héritier (1786: 59) is the type of Flacourtieae (previously placed in Flacourtiaceae, now Salicaceae) (Leskinen & Alström-Rapaport 1999, Chase 2002, Angiosperm Phylogeny Group 2009, Reveal & Chase 2011). It consists of 15 to 17 species, distributed in tropical Asia and Africa. There are 5 species in China with one endemic, 4 of them extending to Yunnan (Yang & Zmarzty 2007). There were 8 species recorded for British India (Hooker & Thomson 1872), 7 species for British Burma (Kurz 1877), and there are as many as 79 names of Flacourtia listed in the PlantList, only 8 of them currently accepted (The Plant List 2010), but no modern systematic study on this genus has been published so far.
