Distribution of flavonoids among Malvaceae family members – A review Vellingiri Vadivel, Sridharan Sriram, Pemaiah Brindha Centre for Advanced Research in Indian System of Medicine (CARISM), SASTRA University, Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract Since ancient times, Malvaceae family plant members are distributed worldwide and have been used as a folk remedy for the treatment of skin diseases, as an antifertility agent, antiseptic, and carminative. Some compounds isolated from Malvaceae members such as flavonoids, phenolic acids, and polysaccharides are considered responsible for these activities. Although the flavonoid profiles of several Malvaceae family members are REVIEW REVIEW ARTICLE investigated, the information is scattered. To understand the chemical variability and chemotaxonomic relationship among Malvaceae family members summation of their phytochemical nature is essential. Hence, this review aims to summarize the distribution of flavonoids in species of genera namely Abelmoschus, Abroma, Abutilon, Bombax, Duboscia, Gossypium, Hibiscus, Helicteres, Herissantia, Kitaibelia, Lavatera, Malva, Pavonia, Sida, Theobroma, and Thespesia, Urena, In general, flavonols are represented by glycosides of quercetin, kaempferol, myricetin, herbacetin, gossypetin, and hibiscetin. However, flavonols and flavones with additional OH groups at the C-8 A ring and/or the C-5′ B ring positions are characteristic of this family, demonstrating chemotaxonomic significance.

The Successful Biological Control of Spinyhead Sida, Sida Acuta [Malvaceae], by Calligrapha Pantherina (Col: Chrysomelidae) in Australia’S Northern Territory
Proceedings of the X International Symposium on Biological Control of Weeds 35 4-14 July 1999, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana, USA Neal R. Spencer [ed.]. pp. 35-41 (2000) The Successful Biological Control of Spinyhead Sida, Sida Acuta [Malvaceae], by Calligrapha pantherina (Col: Chrysomelidae) in Australia’s Northern Territory GRANT J. FLANAGAN1, LESLEE A. HILLS1, and COLIN G. WILSON2 1Department of Primary Industry and Fisheries, P.O. Box 990, Darwin, Northern Territory 0801, Australia 2Northern Territory Parks and Wildlife Commission P.O. Box 496, Palmerston, Northern Territory 0831, Australia Abstract Calligrapha pantherina Stål was introduced into Australia from Mexico as a biologi- cal control agent for the important pasture weed Sida acuta Burman f. (spinyhead sida). C. pantherina was released at 80 locations in Australia’s Northern Territory between September 1989 and March 1992. It established readily at most sites near the coast, but did not establish further inland until the mid to late 1990’s. Herbivory by C. pantherina provides complete or substantial control in most situations near the coast. It is still too early to determine its impact further inland. Introduction The malvaceous weed Sida acuta (sida) Burman f. (Kleinschmidt and Johnson, 1977; Mott, 1980) frequently dominates improved pastures, disturbed areas and roadsides in northern Australia. This small, erect shrub is native to Mexico and Central America but has spread throughout the tropics and subtropics (Holm et al., 1977). Chinese prospectors, who used the tough, fibrous stems to make brooms (Waterhouse and Norris, 1987), may have introduced it into northern Australia last century. Today it is widespread in higher rainfall areas from Brisbane in Queensland to the Ord River region of Western Australia.

The leaves of these plants were studied using the impression techniques method to obtain epidermal peel. The stems and roots of the plants were socked in the solution of FAA and free hand section obtained for anatomical studies using a digital microscope with photomicrographs taken. The epidermal peel obtained shows that the stomatadistributions in the leaves were more in the adaxial surface more than the abaxial surface in the studied plants. Theshapes of epidermis were straight in Sida acuta, rectangular in Spigelia anthelmia, cylindrical in Justiciacarnea, and oval in both Centrosema pubescensand Pueraria phaseoliodes. The numbers of the subsidiary cell in the studied plants were anomocytic. This study was analyzed based on the present or absence of stomata in both the upper and lower epidermis. The anatomical study of the stems shows that the epidermis of the stem of Sida acuta andJusticia carnea were rounded, Spigelia anthelmia and Centrosema pubescens were rectangular, and Pueraria phaseoliodes were cylindrical.
