It concerns the taxa belonging to the families ranging from Boraginaceae to Myoporaceae according to the 12th Engler system by Melchior (1964). Fifteen lectotypes are designated. Also the lectotype of Bignonia tomentosa Thunb. is designated. (Continued from J. Jpn. Bot. 92: 133–147, 2017) Key words: Japanese flora, lectotypification, Siebold collections, Zuccarini.

In the past few decades, however, these mangrove forests have been largely degraded and destroyed during the process of development. The negative environmental and socio-economic impacts on mangrove ecosystems have led many government and non- government agencies, together with civil societies, to launch mangrove conservation and rehabilitation programmes, especially during the 1990s. In the course of such activities, programme staff have faced continual difficulties in identifying plant species growing in the field. Despite a wide availability of mangrove guidebooks in Southeast Asia, none of these sufficiently cover species that, though often associated with mangroves, are not confined to this habitat.

Isocoumarins represent one of the most interesting classes of metabolites, which are coumarins isomers with a reversed lactone moiety. They are produced by plants, microbes, marine organisms, bacteria, insects, liverworts, and fungi and possessed a wide array of bioactivities.

The mesophyll is compact with palisade and spongy parenchyma cells in the young stage, but at maturity profuse intercellular spaces can be observed. Secretory ducts occur in young leaves. Pear-shaped glandular hairs protrude from the epidermal layer. Hair primordia are well distinct by their larger size and undergo divisions to produce two laterally placed basal cells, two stalk cells and four radiating terminal cells. The cuticle layers of the terminal cells are often separated from the cell wall to form a space, in which ions accumulate for excre- tion.

Mehr- fach von andren Aufgabcn in den Hintergrund gedrangt, zeitweilig wie- der in Angriff genommen, hat sich das Manuskript nun doch so ver- gróBert, daB ich mich entschlossen habe, es zu veróffentlichen. Baron F. von Mueller hat nicht mehr Zeit gefunden, den I. Band, d.h. den Text zu den Lithograms (Bd.II) seines „Myoporinous plants" zu schreiben, denn der zu jeder Tafel hinzugefugte Hinweis auf die erste Publication der betr. Art kann nicht ais erschópfender Text zu einer solchen Icono- graphie gelten, und Zitate aus dem schon vorhandenen Band V von Ben- tham’s Flora Australiensis finden sich bei nur 7 Arten. Verwunderlich ist jedoch, dali weder ein australischer noch ein englischer Botaniker es unternommen hat, zu diesem ausgezeichneten Tafelwerk den Text zu schreiben. Da nach nun mehr ais 30 Jahren seit F. von Muellers Tode und 55 Jahre seit dem Erscheinen des funften Bandes der Flora Au­ straliensis sich niemand gefunden hat, der sein Werk vollenden konnte, wird es wohl nicht ais ein unzeitiges Vordrangen bezeichnet werden diirfen, wenn ich tue, was Andre, und solche, denen die Aufgabe naher lag, langst hatten lun konnen oder sollen.

Received: 8 January 2019; Accepted: 22 January 2019; Published: 1 February 2019 Abstract: Four new isocoumarin derivatives, botryospyrones A (1), B (2), C (3), and D (4), and a new natural tryptamine, (3aS, 8aS)-1-acetyl-1, 2, 3, 3a, 8, 8a-hexahydropyrrolo [2,3b] indol-3a-ol (5), were isolated from a marine mangrove endophytic fungus Botryosphaeria ramosa L29, obtained from the leaf of Myoporum bontioides. Their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic analysis. The absolute configurations of compounds 3, 4, and 5 were determined by comparison of their circular dichroism (CD) spectra with the calculated data. The inhibitory activities of compound 1 on Fusarium oxysporum, of compounds 2 and 3 on F. oxysporum and Fusarium graminearum, and of compound 5 on F. oxysporum, Penicillium italicum, and F. graminearum were higher than those of triadimefon, widely used as an agricultural fungicide.

  • Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Potency, and Potential Toxicity of Myoporum Spp
    REVIEW ARTICLE Rec. Nat. Prod. X:X (202X) XX-XX Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Potency, and Potential Toxicity of Myoporum spp. Arafa Musa 1,2* 1Department of Pharmacognosy, College of Pharmacy, Jouf University, 72341, Sakaka, Saudi Arabia 2Department of Pharmacognosy, Faculty of Pharmacy, Al-Azhar University, Cairo, 11371, Egypt (Received October 03, 2020; Revised October 23, 2020; Accepted October 24, 2020) Abstract: Genus Myoporum family Myoporaceae, includes approximately 32 species of woody small trees or shrubs, most of them are native to Australia and surrounding territories. Only certain species have been thoroughly studied and rich in flavonoids, phenylethanoids, Phenylpropanoids, terpenoids, iridoids, essential oil, and trace alkaloids. The essential oils are characterized by sesquiterpenes type components, either in ketone or alcoholic forms usually combined to a furanoid moiety. Myoporum spp. have been utilized in folk medicine for treatment of various diseases and were used as antidermatitis, antibacterial, antipyretic, anti-pulpitis, antipsychotic, anti-inflammatory, detoxicant, and others. Despite all these benefits, Myoporum spp. must be cautiously employed due to their potential toxicities, which arise from the presence of furanosesquiterpenoid contents, particularly in their essential oil. The toxicity influences liver and can extend to kidney and lung causing injury. The present review aims to explore the phytochemistry, beneficial uses and the toxic potentials of Myoporum spp. Keywords: Myoporum; Myoporaceae; secondary metabolites; furanosesquiterpenoids; biological activities; toxicity. © 2020 ACG Publications.

Myoporaceous plants are shrubs or small trees widely endemic to Australia. Genus Myoporum was discovered in 1786 by George Foster [1-3].

  • Induction of Neuronal Differentiation by Extracts from 57 Kinds of Traditional Medicinal Plants in Myanmar
    J. Res. Inst. Sci. Tech.,Induction Nihon Univ. of Neuronal No. 139 pp.Differentiation 1–11 by Extracts from 57 Kinds of Traditional Medicinal Plants in Myanmar Induction of Neuronal Differentiation by Extracts from 57 Kinds of Traditional Medicinal Plants in Myanmar Atsuyoshi NISHINA1*, Kei YOSHII1, Makoto FUKATSU2, Yasunori KUSHI1, Yusuke SUZUKI1 and Motohiko UKIYA1 Abstract Aging is becoming one of a big problem in advanced countries, thus development of medicine treat- ing or preventing dementia is carried out since incidence of the disease is raised higher along with aging. We tried to find the components inducing neuronal differentiation from 57 kinds of traditional medicinal plants in Myanmar. From the results of evaluation of cytotoxicity and induction of phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) in PC12 cells by 171 extracts from 57 species of tradi- tional medicinal plants in Myanmar, only three kinds of Croton tiglium L. extracts and ethyl acetate extract of Oroxylum indicum (L.) Benth. ex kurz, showed both of low-cytotoxicity and phosphorylation of ERK1/2. It was deduced that neuronal differentiation was induced by C. tiglium methanol extract, because it up-regulated both neurite outgrowth and expression of neurofilament-M (NFM). On the other hand, from the results using three mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors, it was considered that phosphorylation of five kinases (ERK1/2, p38MAPK, c-jun N-terminal kinas (JNK), ERK5, and Akt) and three kinases (ERK1/2, p38MAPK, and JNK) were necessary for neuronal differentiation by NGF and C. tiglium methanol extract, respectively. Water soluble polymer such as proteins is not contained in C.
