It is used in several traditional medicines to cure various diseases. This shrub has been known to act as a dermatological aid, antifungal, toothache remedy, and a cold and cough remedy1. A wide range of chemical compounds found within the plant have shown promising pharmacological characteristics. These include coumarins, alkaloids, and furanocoumarins which come from the stem, root, bark, berries, and many other parts of the plant. Some of the most important furanocoumarins found in Z. americanum extracts are psoralen, 8-MOP, and imperatorin, and it is these compounds that give the fruit, husk, and leaf extracts their broad spectrum of antifungal activity2. Furanocoumarins are phototoxic by covalently binding to DNA forming adducts which allow Z. americanum to be used in phototherapeutic applications against fungal infections2,3. Furanocoumarins also correlate to the antimicrobial activity of Z. americanum2. The chemical compounds within Zanthoxylum americanum make it a common therapeutic for many infections and other skin conditions. Documenting and analyzing how other species within the Zanthoxylum genus can be used in traditional medicine is important to further understand the properties that cause toxicity or have therapeutic effects. This review documents the ethnobotany, chemistry, and toxicity/bioactivity of other species within the Zanthoxylum genus including Z. armatum DC. and Z. acanthopodium DC. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................................... iii LIST OF TABLES ......................................................................................................................... iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ............................................................................................................ v INTRODUCTION .......................................................................................................................... 1 ZANTHOXYLUM ARMATUM DC. ............................................................................................ 2 ETHNOBOTANY ...................................................................................................................... 2 CHEMISTRY ............................................................................................................................. 4 TOXICITY/BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY .................................................................................... 5 ZANTHOXYLUM ACANTHOPODIUM DC. .............................................................................. 7 ETHNOBOTANY ...................................................................................................................... 7 CHEMISTRY ............................................................................................................................. 8 TOXICITY/BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY .................................................................................. 10 CONCLUSION ............................................................................................................................. 13 BIBLIOGRAPHY ......................................................................................................................... 14 iii LIST OF FIGURES Figure 1: Zanthoxylum armatum.

It has been a great journey seeing the development of the lab over these past few semesters. Giving me the opportunity to conduct as much research as possible given the COVID-19 restrictions has been a great experience. Having him help me every step of the way in the thesis writing process has been greatly appreciated. I would also like to thank Dr. Vanden Heuvel for always answering my questions and guiding me through the undergraduate process. I also want to express my gratitude for all of the members of the Kellogg laboratory for being a source of positivity during our lab meetings and in the lab. Last but not least, I would like to thank my parents and friends for watching me grow over these past four years and pushing me to follow my dreams. Without their love and support, I would not be the person I am today. 1 INTRODUCTION The Zanthoxylum genus belongs to the Rutaceae family which consists of over 200 species including trees and shrubs in warm subtropic areas around the world4. Some are more commonly used in Northeastern United States, while others are found in places like India, Nepal, and Indonesia. Zanthoxylum comes from the word Xanthoxylum which in Greek derives to “zanthon xylon” or yellow wood5. Many articles and authors use Zanthoxylum and Xanthoxylum interchangeably5. Species in the Zanthoxylum genus have distinct features. They have the presence of recurved spines on the trunk and branches5. The leaf shapes can be varied having up to 15 pairs of leaflets5. The seeds of the fruits are either red or black with a slight shine5,6. The fruits can contain one to five aromatic carpels5,7. Species in the Zanthoxylum genus have been used in traditional medicine to treat fungal infections, stomach ailments, inflammation, and rheumatic diseases4. They are importance sources of edible fruits, oils, and medicinal plants5. The major components of Zanthoxylum species are furanocoumarins, monoterpenes, and alkaloids. They have shown potential biological activities such as antioxidant, antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antifungal. 2 ZANTHOXYLUM ARMATUM DC. ETHNOBOTANY Zanthoxylum armatum DC. is an erect shrub or small tree found in the hot valleys of the Himalayas and India8. The seeds, bark, and fruit are used to treat various diseases. The fruits, branches, and thorns are used to help elevate toothaches whereas the seeds and bark are used in fever, indigestion, and cholera treatment9,10. There are also some studies showing that Z. armatum DC has the potential to help manage diabetes. Figure 1: Zanthoxylum armatum. (a) A mature flowering plant (b) Young fruits (c) Ripe fruits. Reconfigured from Phuyal et al. (2019)11. 3 Table 1: Ethnomedicinal uses of Zanthoxylum armatum. Reconfigured from Phuyal et al. (2019)11 4 CHEMISTRY Essential oil extractions from Zanthoxylum armatum DC branches and leaves contain �- Terpinene (45.56%), piperitone (33.47%), and 3-carene (8.88%)12, all of which are monoterpenes. However, different places of origin and harvest time seem to cause varying chemical composition for the same plant essential oil12. This is seen with Z. armatum DC as varied harvest times resulted in a change of main components to 2-undecanone (19.75%), followed by 2-tridecanone (11.76%) and �-caryophyllene (9.88%)12,13. Essential oils extracted from Kashmir and Jummu contained linalool, linalyl acetate and limonene14,15.The main constituents of the essential oils of Zanthoxylum armatum DC are consistently monoterpenes which have demonstrated insecticidal as well as antibacterial activities16. It has even been used to treat some cancers 16. Crude methanol extracts of Zanthoxylum armatum DC are seen to also contain phenolic and flavonoid compounds like tambulin that show antimycotic potential11.

E-mail: Abstract: The Rondônia Natural Resources Management Project (PLANAFLORO) was a strategic program developed in partnership between the Brazilian Government and The World Bank in 1992, with the purpose of stimulating the sustainable development and protection of the Amazon in the state of Rondônia. More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State. It is our intention that this information will stimulate future studies and contribute to a better understanding and more effective conservation of the plant diversity in the southwestern Amazon of Brazil. Introduction The PLANAFLORO Project funded botanical expeditions In early 1990, Brazilian Amazon was facing remarkably in different areas of the state to inventory arboreal plants high rates of forest conversion (Laurance et al.

    Fire effects on the population structure of Zanthoxylum rhoifolium Lam (Rutaceae) in a Brazilian savanna Silva, IA.*, Valenti, MW. and Silva-Matos, DM. Departamento de Botânica, Universidade Federal de São Carlos – UFSCar, Rod. Washington Luís, Km 235, CP 676, CEP 13565-905, São Carlos, SP, Brazil *e-mail: [email protected] Received January 14, 2008 – Accepted July 18, 2008 – Distributed August 31, 2008 (With 1 figure) Abstract Since cerrado fires may impede the growth of seedlings into trees, they may shape the population of woody spe- cies. In this study, we assessed the effects of a severe fire on the population structure and spatial distribution of Zanthoxylum rhoifolium, a widespread cerrado tree. We were interested to know the importance of the resprouting and sexual reproduction in regenerating the population. The study area had been for about six years protected from fire, before a severe fire at the end of the dry season in 2006. We sampled and measured all individuals of Z. rhoifolium found in 80 plots of 25 m2. We found 149 individuals before the fire and 112 after the fire, of which 77 were resprouts from burned seedlings and saplings. We did not find significant differences between the population structure before and after the fire. The spatial distribution of the population remained clumped after the fire. Thus, the Z. rhoifolium population was very resilient to a severe fire. We did not find any new seedlings. As a consequence, resprouting seems to be more important than sexual reproduction in promptly regenerating the Z. rhoifolium populations. Keywords: cerrado, resilience, resprouting, sexual reproduction, spatial distribution.
