“…The PCA also indicated the distinction in the chemical profiles of bark samples from other tissues for FLONA samples, described by PC-2 ( Figure 1 B). This difference is due to the presence of reticuline, a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid in the trunk of Aniba species [ 18 ]. The isomers of reticuline were identified at RT 3.29 and 2.10 min by m / z 192.1012, which resulted from the fragmentation of [M + H] + 330.1700 corresponding to reticuline (C 19 H 23 NO 4 ; calculated [M + H] + 330.1699).…”

“…A. rosiodora ) [ 3 ], as the main compound responsible for differentiating leaves and stem samples from FLONA. Bark samples from the same location presented reticuline, a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid previously identified in the trunk of Aniba species [ 18 ]. The presence of a pyrone, 6-styryl-2-pyrone, was crucial for the separation of samples from RESEX.…”

Aniba rosiodora has been exploited since the end of the nineteenth century for its essential oil, a valuable ingredient in the perfumery industry. This species occurs mainly in Northern South America, and the morphological similarity among different Aniba species often leads to misidentification, which impacts the consistency of products obtained from these plants. Hence, we compared the profiles of volatile organic compounds (essential oils) and non-volatile organic compounds (methanolic extracts) of two populations of A. rosiodora from the RESEX and FLONA conservation units, which are separated by the Tapajós River in Western Pará State. The phytochemical profile indicated a substantial difference between the two populations: samples from RESEX present α-phellandrene (22.8%) and linalool (39.6%) in their essential oil composition, while samples from FLONA contain mainly linalool (83.7%). The comparison between phytochemical profiles and phylogenetic data indicates a clear difference, implying genetic distinction between these populations.

“…One of these is the vesselless Winteraceae, commonly believed to be the most primitive of all angiosperm families. Most of the taxa which lack benzylisoquinoline alkaloids, including parts of the Lauraceae and most of the Piperaceae, produce phenylpropanoid derivatives, such as neolignans, or pyrones instead (Ferreira et al 1980, Gottlieb 1972.…”

The restricted distributions of some classes of secondary metabolites in the angiosperms make them valuable taxonomic characters in assessing systematic relationships at higher levels of classification. Yet, for several reasons, secondary metabolites have not, until recently, been widely used as taxonomic characters above the family level. In this paper, the distributions of a number of classes of secondary compounds are discussed with reference to four recently published systems of higher angiosperm classification: Cronquist's of 1981, Dahlgren's of 1980, Takhtajan's of 1980 and Thome's of 1981. Some of the problems faced in choosing and using secondary metabolite data for systematic purposes (including the effects of our increasing understanding of their functional significance) are covered as well. Among the classes of secondary compounds treated here, benzylisoquinoline alkaloids, iridoids and be–talains are shown to be the most important systematic markers used at present at higher levels of classification, although glucosinolates, polyacetylenes and some other types of alkaloids are also demonstrated to be valuable criteria for making taxonomic judgments above the family rank. In addition, certain terpenoids, flavonoids, phenolics, cyanogenic glycosides and non–protein amino acids are illustrated to be of systematic use in particular cases.
