Antônio Carlos 6627, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. ABSTRACT: The sesquiterpene lactones lychnopholide and eremantholide C were isolated from Lychnophora trichocarpha Spreng. (Asteraceae), which is a plant species native to the Brazilian Savannah or Cerrado and popularly known as arnica. Sesquiterpene lactones are known to present a variety of biological activities including antitumor activity. The present paper reports on the evaluation of the in vitro antitumor activity of lychnopholide and eremantholide C, in the National Cancer Institute, USA (NCI, USA), against a panel of 52 human tumor cell lines of major human tumors derived from nine cancer types. Lychnopholide disclosed significant activity against 30 cell lines of seven cancer types with IC100 (total growth concentration inhibition) values between 0.41 µM and 2.82 µM. Eremantholide C showed significant activity against 30 cell lines of eight cancer types with IC100 values between 21.40 µM and 53.70 µM. Lychnopholide showed values of lethal concentration 50 % (LC50) for 30 human tumor cell lines between 0.72 and 10.00 µM, whereas eremantholide C presented values of LC50 for 21 human tumor cell lines between 52.50 and 91.20 µM.

Abstract Background: Phylogenetic analyses of the Annonaceae consistently identify four clades: a basal clade consisting of Anaxagorea, and a small 'ambavioid' clade that is sister to two main clades, the 'long branch clade' (LBC) and 'short branch clade' (SBC). Divergence times in the family have previously been estimated using non-parametric rate smoothing (NPRS) and penalized likelihood (PL). Here we use an uncorrelated lognormal (UCLD) relaxed molecular clock in BEAST to estimate diversification times of the main clades within the family with a focus on the Asian genus Pseuduvaria within the SBC. Two fossil calibration points are applied, including the first use of the recently discovered Annonaceae fossil Futabanthus.

As in so many dicot families, however, related woody genera occur in tropical and subtropical regions. Botanists who have not encountered woody Inuleae may be surprised to learn that wood of Brachylaena merana has been used for carpentry and for railroad ties in Madagascar (Lecomte, 1922), that of Tarchonanthtts camphorattts for musical instruments in Africa (Hoffmann, 1889-1894) and that the wood of Brachylaena (Synchodendrttm) ramiflomm is described as "resistant to rot, hard and dense, known to be of great durability" (Lecomte, 1922). In Argentina, the relatively soft wood of T essaria integrifolia is used "in paper making and also in the construction of ranchos" (Cabrera, 1939). All of these species are trees. Tessaria and Brachylaena also contain shrubs as well. Most other species included in this study could be considered shrubs (Plttchea, Cassinia) or woody herbs. The geographical distribution of Inuleae roughly reflects the relative woodiness of genera and species, because there is a tendency for the more woody species to occur in tropical regions, shrubby species in subtropical areas, and herbs in temperate or montane situations.

As 12 tree species in an evergreen tropical mountain rain forest revealed by power spectrum analysis and Markov in southern Ecuador were examined over a period of 3– persistence, rainfall and minimum temperature appear to 4 years. Leaf shedding of two species was observed for be the only parameters with a periodicity free of long-term 12 months. Parallel to the phenological recordings, variations. The phenological events of most of the plant meteorological parameters were monitored in detail and species showed a similar periodicity of 8–12 months, related to the flowering and fruiting activity of the trees. In which followed the annual oscillation of relatively less and spite of the perhumid climate of that area, a high degree of more humid periods and thus was in phase or in counter- intra- and inter-specific synchronisation of phenological phase with the oscillations of the meteorological param- traits was apparent. With the exception of one species that eters. Periods of unusual cold or dryness, presumably flowered more or less continuously, two groups of trees resulting from underlying longer-term trends or oscillations could be observed, one of which flowered during the less (such as ENSO), affected the homogeneity of quasi-12- humid months (September to October) while the second month flowering events, fruit maturation and also the group started to initiate flowers towards the end of that production of germinable seeds.

  • Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti for Use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1
    Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti For use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1 Haiti occupies the western one third of the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic the remainder. Of all the islands within the Caribbean basin Hispaniola possesses the most varied flora after that of Cuba. The plants contained in this review have been recorded as native to Haiti, though some may now have been extirpated due in large part to severe deforestation. Less than 1.5% of the country’s original tree-cover remains. Haiti’s future is critically tied to re- forestation; loss of tree cover has been so profound that exotic fast growing trees, rather than native species, are being used to halt soil erosion and lessen the risk of mudslides. For more information concerning Haiti’s ecological plight consult references at the end of this document. For present purposes all of the trees listed below are native to Haiti, which is why non-natives such as mango (the most widely planted tree) and other important trees such as citrus, kassod tree (Senna siamea) and lead tree (Leucanea leucocephala) are not included. The latter two trees are among the fast growing species used for re-forestation. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History’s Flora of the West Indies was an invaluable tool in assessing the range of plants native to Haiti. Not surprisingly many of the listed trees and shrubs 1 John McLaughlin Ph.D. U.F./Miami-Dade County Extension Office, Homestead, FL 33030 Page | 1 are found in other parts of the Caribbean with some also native to South Florida.

Unfortunately, deforestation for pastures in the lower montane cloud forest is high. Many pastures become abandoned, leaving highly disturbed open areas of land where natural forest regeneration is poor. Human intervention to encourage ecological restoration is very important to re-establish the proper structure and functioning of the ecosystem.

In this chapter, we attempt to describe the major types of vegetation cover in this vast region as they occurred in pre- Columbian times and outline the conditions that support them. Examining the large-scale phytogeographic regions characterized by each major cover type (see Fig. I), we provide basic information on geology, geological history, topography, and climate; describe variants of physiognomy (vegetation structure) and geography; discuss transitions; and examine some floristic patterns and affinities within and among these regions.
