Chemical and genetic study of two ligularia hybrids in shangrila county, yunnan province, China

Abstract

The composition of root chemicals was examined for samples of L. cyathiceps ×L. duciformis, L. duciformis ×L. yunnanensis, and L. yunnanensis. Various furanoeremophilanes were isolated from a sample of L. cyathiceps ×L. duciformis and found to be very similar to those isolated from L. cyathiceps. Lupeol and docosyl ferulate were isolated from L. yunnanensis, L. duciformis, and L. duciformis × L. yunnanensis.
