Annonaceae is a major pantropical plant family with 109 genera and ca. 2450 species, occurring across all major and minor tropical forests of the world. Baits were designed by sequencing the transcriptomes of five species from two of the largest Annonaceae subfamilies. Orthologous loci were identified. The resulting baiting kit was used to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships at two different levels using concatenated and gene tree approaches: a family wide Annonaceae analysis sampling 65 genera and a species level analysis of tribe Piptostigmateae sampling 29 species with multiple individuals per species.

Email: [email protected] Submitted: 27.08.2020; Accepted: 24.12.2020 Abstract The genus Goniothalamus is belonging to the Annonaceae family, consists of ca. 2500 species and found in tropical Southeast Asia. The Goniothalamus essential oils were recognized to possess considerable biological activities with varied chemical composition. This article aims to overview the medicinal uses, chemical compositions, and biological activities of Malaysian Goniothalamus essential oils considered as a medicinal plants, widely used as traditional herbal medicines in the treatment of various diseases. The data were collected from the scientific electronic databases including SciFinder, Scopus, Elsevier, PubMed and Google Scholar. Ten Goniothalamus species have been reported for their essential oils and biological activities. It can be observed that the major components were α-cadinol, terpinen-4-ol, β-eudesmol, β-selinene, linalool, limonene, α-copaene, 1,8-cineole and β-cubebene. In addition, the selected chemical components from the bark, leaf and root oils were analysed using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA) and were able to cluster in four groups based on relationships and chemical patterns in essential oils.

Christophe Wiart School of Pharmacy, The University of Nottingham (Malaysia Campus), Jalan Broga, 43500 Semenyih, Selangor, Malaysia Irrespective of the presence of cytotoxic acetogenins and styryl-lactones in the genus Goniothalamus, only 22 species in the genus Goniothalamus, out of 160 species (13.7%) have so far been investigated. In an effort to promote further research on the genus Goniothalamus which could represent a source of drugs for the treatment of cancers and bacterial infections, this work offers a broad analysis of current knowledge on Goniothalamus species. Therefore, it includes (i) taxonomy (ii) botanical description (iii) traditional medicinal uses and (iv) phytochemical and pharmacological studies. We discuss the molecular mechanisms of actions of acetogenins and styryl-lactones, with some emphasis on the possible involvement of protein kinase, Bax and TRAIL receptors in the cytotoxic effects of styryl-lactones. We also report (v) the growth inhibition of several nosocomial bacteria by Goniothalamus. scortechinii. The crude methanol extract of G. scortechinii showed a good and broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria.

The new species is allied to G. dolichopetalus by having similarities on the length of petiole, glabrous leafblade, width of the outer petals and inner petals. However, it is differentiated by having smaller leaves 6–11 × 2–4 cm (vs. 11–20 × 2.5–5 cm), narrowly lanceolate leafblade (vs. lanceolate to oblong-lanceolate, rarely oblanceolate), attenuate apex (vs. acuminate), obute base (vs. acute), larger broadly ovate sepals (vs.

  • A Comparative Study of the Essential Oils of Four Goniothalamus Species
    A Comparative Study of the Essential Oils of Four Goniothalamus Species Ibrahim Jantan Fasihuddin Ahmad Department of Pharmacy Faculty of Resource Science and Technology Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Universiti Malaysia Sarawak Jalan Raja Muda Abdul Aziz 94300 Kota Samarahan, Sarawak 50300 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia Malaysia Abu Said Ahmad Medicinal Plant Division Forest Research Institute Malaysia, Kepong, 5 2109 Kuala Lumpur Malaysia Keywords: Goniothalamus species, Annonaceae, essential oil composition, sesquiterpenoids, monoterpenoids, chemotaxonomy Abstract The essential oils of four Goniothalamus species (G. malayanus Hook. f. and Thoms., G. uvariodes King, G. macrophyllus Hook. F. and G. andersonii J. Sinclair) were examined by capillary GC and GC-MS. The chemical components were identified by comparison of their mass spectral data with those existing in the Wiley library, their retention indices and co-chromatography of some constituents with authentic samples on two columns of different polarity. The leaf oils of G. uvariodes and G. malayanus were made up mainly of sesquiterpenoids where β-cubebene (15.2%) and β-selinene (33.6%) were the most abundant compounds, respectively. The bark oils of both species were also rich in sesquiterpenoids with eudesmols as the major compounds. The root oil of G. malayanus was qualitatively similar to its bark oil. However, the major group of compounds in the root oil of G. uvariodes was monoterpenoids where terpinen-4-ol (39.5%) and 1,8-cineole (14.0%) were the main representatives. Monoterpenoid was also the major group in the bark oil of G. macrophyllus with terpinen-4-ol, (Z)-β-ocimene, α-terpineol and 1,8-cineole present in significant amounts.

In our efforts to evaluate plants from Borneo, we isolated and elucidated the structures of four natural products from the bioactive fraction of a chloroform extract of Goniothalamus longistipetes using various chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. The bioactive compounds were identified as a known styryllactone, (+)-altholactone ((2S,3R,3aS,7aS)-3-hydroxy-2-phenyl-2,3,3a,7a-tetrahydrobenzo-5(4H)-5-one) (1), a new styryllactone, (2S,3R,3aS,7aS)-3-hydroxy-2-phenyl-2,3,3a,7a-tetrahydrobenzo-5(4H)-5-one) (2) as well as a new alkaloid, 2,6-dimethoxyisonicotinaldehyde (3) and a new alkenyl-5-hydroxyl-phenyl benzoic acid (4). 1 and 4 showed broad-spectrum anti-bacterial activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria as well as acid-fast model selected for this study.

(Annonaceae) is described from Yunnan Province in Southwest China. It is easily distinguished from all previously described Meiogyne species by the possession of up to four carpels per flower, its bilobed, sparsely hairy stigma, biseriate ovules and cylindrical monocarps with a beaked apex. A phylogenetic analysis was conducted to confirm the placement of this new species within Meiogyne. Meiogyne oligocarpa represents the second species of Meiogyne in China: a key to the species of Meiogyne in China is provided to distinguish

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Received on: 28/08/2020 Several studies have revealed the medicinal potential of Goniothalamus lanceolatus (GL) for various diseases. This Accepted on: 16/01/2021 study aims to examine the effects of GL extracts on cell viability, migration, and apoptotic rate of chemosensitive Available online: 05/04/2021 and chemoresistant ovarian cancer cells. The dissolved GL leaf and root extracts in dichloromethane (DCM), hexane, and methanol were tested against PEO1 (chemosensitive) and PEO4 (chemoresistant) cell lines. MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide) assay was used to determine the cell viability after Key words: 24 hours exposure to various extract concentrations at two-fold serial dilutions (0–1,000 μg/ml). A scratch assay Goniothalamus lanceolatus, was used to examine cell migration.
