“…1). By comparison of their physical and spectroscopic data with those of literatures, the structures of four known abietanes were identified as 5,8,11,13-abietatetraen-3,7-dione [7], 3β,7α-dihydroxy-abieta-8,11,13-triene [13], 14,18-dihydroxyabieta-8,11,13-trien-7-one [14], and 15,18-dihydroxyabieta-8,11,13triene [15], respectively. All the above diterpenes were identified from this mangrove plant for the first time.…”

Eleven new diterpenes, named decandrins A-K (1-11), including nine abietanes (1-9) and two podocarpanes (10-11), were isolated from the barks of an Indian mangrove, Ceriops decandra, collected in the mangrove swamp of Godavari estuary, Andhra Pradesh, together with four known abietanes. The structures of these compounds were established on the basis of spectroscopic data (new compounds) or comparison with data in the literature (known compounds). This is the first report of abietane and podocarpane diterpenoids from C. decandra.

“…Still, in the plant kingdom, abietadiene-derived diterpenes are not exclusively found in gymnosperms–abietanes (including dehydroabietanes) have been found in different families of angiosperms (e.g. Lamiaceae 36 , Apiaceae 37 and Ericaceae 38 ). Therefore, a better understanding of the distribution of this group of metabolites (or of the genetic potential for their production) in both the bacterial and plant kingdoms will be instrumental for clarifying how their biosynthesis evolved.…”

Terpenes, a large family of natural products with important applications, are commonly associated with plants and fungi. The diterpenoids dehydroabietic and abietic acids are defense metabolites abundant in resin, and are used as biomarkers for conifer plants. We report here for the first time that the two diterpenoid acids are produced by members of several genera of cyanobacteria. Dehydroabietic acid was isolated from two cyanobacterial strains and its identity was confirmed spectroscopically. One or both of the diterpenoids were detected in the cells of phylogenetically diverse cyanobacteria belonging to four cyanobacterial ‘botanical orders’, from marine, estuarine and inland environments. Dehydroabietic acid was additionally found in culture supernatants. We investigated the natural role of the two resin acids in cyanobacteria using ecologically-relevant bioassays and found that the compounds inhibited the growth of a small coccoid cyanobacterium. The unexpected discovery of dehydroabietic and abietic acids in a wide range of cyanobacteria has implications for their use as plant biomarkers.

“…Gaultheric acid belongs to the class of ketones and can be found in wines and plant species such as Gaultheria itoana Hayata (Ericaceae) (Chen et al, 2009). It is also abundant in the root bark of Securidaca longepedunculata Fresen (Polygalaceae), exerting a biocide effect against insects that feed on stored grains (Lognay, Marlier, Seck, & Haubruge, 2000).…”

Volatile compounds play a vital role in the life cycle of plants, possessing antimicrobial and anti-herbivore activities, and with a significant importance in the food, cosmetic, chemical, and pharmaceutical industry. This study aimed to identify the volatile compounds emitted by flowers of thirteen species belonging to four genera of Bromeliaceae, using headspace solid-phase micro-extraction and detection by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A total of 71 volatile compounds belonging to nine chemical groups were identified. The compounds identified represented more than 97 % of the major components in Aechmea bicolor, Ae. bromeliifolia, Ae. distichantha, Ae. fasciata, and Vriesea friburgensis. In the Ananas varieties, over 99 % of the components were identified, and around 90 % in V. simplex. V. friburgensis presented the largest diversity of volatiles with 31 compounds, while Alcantarea nahoumii presented only 14. All three Ananas varieties presented the same 28 compounds in relatively similar abundance, which has been confirmed by principal component analysis. Current taxonomy and pollination syndrome studies available can adequately explain the variation in volatile compounds among species. Rev. Biol. Trop. 64 (3): 1101-1116. Epub 2016 September 01.
