The boreal forest of Canada is home to several hundred thousands Aboriginal people who have been using medicinal plants in traditional health care systems for thousands of years. This knowledge, transmitted by oral tradition from generation to generation, has been eroding in recent decades due to ra...
Plants in the genus Tripterygium, such as Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.f., have a long history of use in traditional Chinese medicine. In recent years there has been considerable interest in the use of Tripterygium extracts and of the main bioactive constituent, the diterpene triepoxide triptolide ...

Here, we investigate the systematic value of metabolite-contents of plants, especially the predictive power of metabolite-content data in exploration of edible and medicinal properties for bioprospecting. In this study, we reconstructed the phylogenetic tree for a set of plants which are distributed ...

Caffeic acid (Figure 2) is the major component in hydroxycinnamic and phenolic acids and is naturally found in plants in a variety of forms, including the corresponding esters. The chemistry and medicinal potential of CAPE derivatives have been well-documented [8], displaying potent antioxidant, ...
The main findings of these investigations were that diploids and polyploids were found in Eurasia, while only diploids were found in NA. In qualitative chemical investigations, decaploid plants were found to contain all the target compounds, while only sakuranetin, trace amounts of 6-demethoxy...
