The structures of these compounds were elucidated mainly by the analysis of their NMR and MS data. All compounds were isolated from this genus for the first time. The skeleton of lignan glycoside 4 was isolated from the Pinaceae family for the first time. All compounds were evaluated for antimicrobial activity against Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus, and their cytotoxic activity against K562, HT-29, B16, BGC-823, BEL-7402, SGC-7901, U251, and A549 cancer cell lines was studied. Results indicated that none of the compounds showed antimicrobial or cytotoxic activity. Key words: Keteleeria evelyniana, Pinaceae, Benzoic Acid Allopyranosides, Lignan Glycosides.

Young specimens, shade, coning, top crown and strong shoots give an atypical view. - Beware of hybridisation, especially with plants raised from seed other than wild origin.

Vietnam’s conifer flora has approximately 34 species that are indigenous to the country, making up about 5% of conifers known worldwide. Although conifers represent only less than 0.3% of the total number of higher vascular plant species of Vietnam, they are of great ecological, cultural and economic importance. Most conifer wood is prized for its high value in house construction, furniture making, etc. The decline of conifer populations in Vietnam has caused serious concern among scientists. Threats to conifer species are substantial and varied, ranging from logging (both commercial and subsistence), land clearing for agriculture, and forest fire. Over the past twelve years (1995-2006), Vietnam Botanical Conservation Program (VBCP), a scientific cooperation between the Missouri Botanical Garden in Saint Louis and the Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources in Hanoi, has conducted various studies on this important group of plants in order to gather baseline information necessary to make sound recommendations for their conservation and sustainable use.

To examine the biogeographic history of Tsuga, phylogenetic relationships among multiple accessions of all nine species were inferred using chloroplast DNA sequences and multiple cloned sequences of the nuclear ribosomal ITS region. Analysis of chloroplast and ITS sequences resolve a clade that includes the two western North American species, T. heterophylla and T. mertensiana, and a clade of Asian species within which one of the eastern North American species, T. caroliniana, is nested. The other eastern North American species, T. canadensis, is sister to the Asian clade. Tsuga chinensis from Taiwan did not group with T.

The Yunnan Province of China is wet and warm enough to support magnificent forests. However, many mountains in the region are covered by a shrubland for- mation dominated by an unusual pine, the shrubby and multistemmed Pinus yunnanensis (Yunnan pine; Fig. 1). This formation is natural, and not the product of forest degradation; and fire appears to be a major factor explaining the features of this pine. This region has a subtropical monsoon climate influenced by both the FIG. 1. The shrubby form of Pinus yunnanensis (var. pyg- Indian Ocean Monsoon from the west, and the Pacific mea) generates extensive shrublands (top). It has serotinous = Ocean Monsoon from the east.

  • Plant Diversity and Morphological Characteristics, and Ecohydrological
    Supplemental materials Tropical families and genera dominated in the Yunnan-Burma-Laos border flora-subregion community, H, and flora mainly consisted of tropical southeastern Asian elements such as Sapindaceae pometic, Sapindaceae litchii, Meliaceae chukrassia, Meliaceae dysoxylum, Annonaceae mitrephora, Annonaceae dasymascholon, Anacardiaceae mangifera and Anacardiaceae draconomelum, pan-tropical elements such as Combretaceae terminalia, Combretaceae combretum, Flacourtiaceae homalium and Sapotaceae pouteria, tropical American-Asian elements, and tropical Asian-African elements. Cenocentrum, Dalechampia, Phylacium, Ophiorrhiziphyllon and Pauldopia only occurred in subregional pool H in China. These phytogroups originated directly from the paleotropical region in the Tertiary period. However, although plant species still originated from the paleotropical region in Yunnan-Viet Nam border flora-subregion community J, there were richer endemic genera such as Diplopanax, Annamocarya, Rhoiptela, Cleidiocarpon, Malania, Bretschneidera, Sargentodoxa, Zippelia than in H, because the region was a refuge and evolutionary center for paleophytes. Among them were even some herbs, shrubs, lianas and parasitic plants. There were also some paleophytes, notably Platanus kerri and Hamamelidaceae embolanther, and all genera of Magnoliaceae, but needle plants could scarcely be seen in the community. Plant species composition in flora-subregion communities F, G and I presented geographical substitutions for the flora of China-Japan in the east and center of China. For example, dominant species Pinus yunnanensis, Keteleeria evelyniana and Cyclobalanopsis glaucoides in subregions F, G and I, respectively, substituted for P. massoniana, K. davidiana and C. glauca. Many plant species with Mediterranean plant traits occurred in the valley or at the bottom of the mountain, and 1 constructed evergreen stiff-leaved and broadleaved forests.

Accurate estimates C and N storage (SC, SN) of forest can improve our understanding of C and N cycles and help develop sustainable forest management policies in the content of climate change. In this study, the SC and SN of various forest ecosystems dominated respectively by Castanopsis carlesii and Lithocarpus mairei (EB), Pinus yunnanensis (PY), Pinus armandii (PA), Keteleeria evelyniana (KE), and Quercus semecarpifolia (QS) in the central Yunnan Plateau of China, were estimated on the basis of a feld inventory to determine the distribution and altitudinal patterns of SC and SN among various −1 forest ecosystems. The results showed that (1) the forest SC ranged from 179.58 ± 20.57 t hm in QS to 365.89 ± 35.03 t hm−1 in EB. Soil, living biomass and litter contributed an average of 64.73%, 31.72% −1 and 2.86% to forest SC, respectively; (2) the forest SN ranged from 4.47 ± 0.94 t ha in PY to 8.91 ± 1.83 t ha−1 in PA. Soil, plants and litter contributed an average of 86.88%, 10.27% and 2.85% to forest SN, respectively; (3) the forest SC and SN decreased apparently with increasing altitude.
