“…This result suggests the importance of using qualitative/quantitative analyses in phytochemical profiling of species. Quantification of compounds of pharamacological interest can provide information about intraspecies chemodiversity, which is the fundamental for bioprospecting, and can lead to multidisciplinary approaches encompassing ecological, biological, chemical, pharmaceutical, and biomedical disciplines [62]. The majority of gentianelas' xanthones are bellidifolins.…”

Phytochemical profiling of six natural populations of Gentianella austriaca was performed by HPLC identification and quantification of a number of secondary metabolites, and evaluation of time series of peak areas by chemometric analysis. Phytochemical analysis of G. austriaca revealed the presence of iridoids, flavone-C-glucosides and xanthones. Twelve secondary metabolites were identified in the aerial parts, roots and seeds, including swertiamarin (SWM), gentiopicrin (GP), sweroside (SWZ), isoorientin (ISOOR), swertisin (SWE), demethylbellidifolin-8-O-glucoside (DMB-8-O-glc), bellidifolin-8-O-glucoside (BDF-8-O-glc), mangiferin (MGF), corymbiferin (CBF), corymbiferin-1-O-glucoside (CBF-1-O-glc), bellidifolin (BDF) and campestroside. Multivariate statistical analyses showed relatively low variability among populations according to secondary metabolite content. However, some pharmacologically important compounds were found in higher amounts in a few populations, which could be useful for conservation and future biotechnological procedures.

“…Besides specific local climatic and topoedaphic conditions at two localities, sampled populations were members of different forest stands (beech-dominated in Vlasina and spruce-dominated in Golija), and differences in local flora and the composition of plant communities may also affect the production of secondary metabolites. Comparative analyses related to phytochemical profiling of geographically distinct populations of numerous species revealed the need for more research regarding the impact of both genetic origin and a specific set of environmental conditions on the composition and content of secondary metabolites [ 24 ]. Several studies documented the chemical variability among natural populations in Gentiana species [ 20 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ].…”

Natural populations of Gentiana asclepiadea L., located at two mountainous sites, were HPLC-analyzed regarding the contents of six representative secondary metabolites. The contents of swertiamarin (SWM), gentiopicrin (GP), sweroside (SWZ), mangiferin (MGF), isoorientin (ISOOR), and isovitexin (ISOV) were determined in six populations (three per study site), and separately for aboveground and belowground plant parts. PCA showed a clear separation of four groups according to the contents of the analyzed secondary metabolites. Out of six analyzed compounds, five were present in all samples and only one (SWZ) was found in Golija populations (belowground parts) but not in Vlasina populations, and its presence can be indicative of the geolocation of populations. Clear separation of groups was mostly affected by the different contents of chemical compounds in plant parts (aboveground versus belowground) and by the differences related to population origin (higher content of SWM and GP in belowground parts of individuals from Vlasina populations and higher content of MGF and ISOOR of individuals from Golija populations). The results of this study contribute to the spatiochemical profiling of G. asclepiadea populations and a better understanding of inter- and intrapopulation variability of pharmacologically important compounds.
