“…The sampling included all 27 genera currently recognized within Cunoniaceae (following Bradford et al, 2004; Pillon et al, 2009a; Hopkins et al, 2013), as well as all of the genera of the related families: Brunelliaceae (monogeneric, Kubitzki, 2004), Cephalotaceae (monogeneric, Conran, 2004), and Elaeocarpaceae (12 genera, Coode, 2004), except Sloanea L. in the last family, for which sequencing was not successful (Appendix S1). Within Cunoniaceae, we sampled all five sections within Weinmannia (sect.…”

Cunoniaceae are a family of shrubs and trees with 27 genera and ca. 335 species, mostly confined to tropical and wet temperate zones of the southern hemisphere. There are several known issues regarding generic limits, and the family also displays a number of intriguing long-range disjunctions. METHODS:We performed a phylogenomic study using the universal Angiosperms353 probe set for targeted sequence capture. We sampled 37 species covering all genera in the Cunoniaceae, and those in the three closely related families of the crown Oxalidales (Brunelliaceae, Cephalotaceae, and Elaeocarpaceae). We also performed analyses for molecular dating and ancestral area reconstruction. RESULTS:We recovered the topology (Cunoniaceae, (Cephalotaceae, (Brunelliaceae, Elaeocarpaceae))) and a well-resolved genus-level phylogeny of Cunoniaceae with strongly supported clades corresponding to all previously recognized tribes. As previously suspected, the genera Ackama and Weinmannia were recovered as paraphyletic. Australasia was inferred as the likely ancestral area for the family. CONCLUSIONS:The current distribution of Cunoniaceae is best explained by long-distance dispersal with a few possible cases of Australasian-American vicariance events. Extinctions may have been important in determining the mostly Oceanian distribution of this family while some genera in the tribe Cunonieae and in New Caledonia have undergone recent bursts of diversification. New generic diagnoses, 80 new combinations, and one new name are provided for a recircumscribed Ackama (including Spiraeopsis), a much smaller Weinmannia (mostly New World), and a resurrected Pterophylla to accommodate Old World taxa previously in Weinmannia.

“…Elaeocarpaceae is a huge family comprising more than 550 known species distributed in 12 genera and represented mainly in Australia, South America, and Southeast Asia [1,2]. Genus Elaeocarpus comprises 350-400 species dispersed in lowland to montane areas of Asia, Australia, Madagascar, and the Pacific islands [3,4,5]. The Crinodendron , Sloanea, and Vallea are endemic genera in South America, whereas nine other genera are distributed in Australia [1,2].…”

“…Phylogenetic studies on Elaeocarpaceae have been mainly conducted based on morphological features [3,6,7,8]. However, a few studies were performed based on fruit mesocarp morphology because fruit mesocarp displays significant variation compared to other morphological characteristics [9,10].…”

DNA barcoding is an indispensable taxonomic tool for plant species identification. The present research successfully amplified the four coding regions of plastid namely; matK, rpoB, ndhJ, and accD, sequenced, and submitted it to NCBI Genbank after verification. This study evaluated the significance of single (matK, rpoB, ndhJ, and accD) and two-locus plastid loci (rpoB+matK, ndhJ+matK, accD+matK) and examined their abilities for species identification and phylogenetic construction of Elaeocarpaceae plants. The average aligned length for matK, rpoB, ndhJ, accD, ndhJ+matK, rpoB+matK, and accD+matK was 395 bp, 538 bp, 477 bp, 254 bp, 872 bp, 937 bp, and 649 bp, respectively. The highest substitution rate was recorded in the rpoB (18.47%), followed by ndhJ (17.38%), accD (14.00%), and matK (11.23%). The number of variable sites, segregating sites (S), nucleotide diversity (Pi), and mutations (Eta) were observed to be highest in the matK region. Evolutionary relationship based on the Neighbor-joining method demonstrated that candidate barcode sequences were competent for identifying Crinodendron, Elaeocarpus, Sloanea, and Vallea species. A significant barcoding gap was identified in two barcoding regions (matK and ndhJ+matK). The species-specific barcodes for the genus Elaeocarpus were generated based on Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) analysis. This study offers novel strategies for effectively identifying species within Elaeocarpaceae and lays the foundation for germplasm conservation and utilization.

Elaeocarpus mastersii King is an Indonesian folk medicine with high phenolic content. In this study, the E. mastersii King leaves were extracted using methanol solvent through maceration. The methanol extract was continuously fractionated by the liquid-liquid extraction using hexane, dichloromethane (DCM), and ethyl acetate solvents, respectively. The DCM fraction was purified by column chromatography using Silica gel 60 and Sephadex LH-20 as the stationary phase and monitored by thin-layer chromatography. This isolation process led to obtaining a pure compound with the appearance of white crystalline powder and a melting point of 198-199℃. This compound absorbed the UV light at the wavelength of 229 and 274 nm, as well as produced the bathochromic shift by the addition of NaOH reagent indicating the aromatic compound with the hydroxyl (OH) substituent. The IR spectrum confirmed the presence of aromatic and OH groups along with other functional groups, such as carbonyl (vmax 1693 cm-1) and alkane (C-H, vmax 2953 cm-1). The NMR data suggested the isolated compound as methyl gallate. Furthermore, the m/z value of the isolated compound was 185.04416 Da [M+H]+. It confirmed the monoisotopic mass of the methyl gallate (184.0362 Da). However, biological evaluation as an α-glucosidase inhibitor showed no positive activity.
