Numerical chemotaxonomy of Amherstieae (Caesalpinioideae)

Abstract

AbstrarThe r of twelve species of Bauhinia is presented. From the quantified data on the distribution pattern of different chemical r including the free aminoacids, it is inferred that the taxa ate closely related and do not warrant splittin8 of the genus. However, the division of the genus based on certain seler phenolic r do,va not conforto to the one on morpholo8ical grounds.

A Study on Phytochemical Analysis of Phyllanthus Tenellus Roxb.

“…Eight secondary metabolites, namely alkaloids, ellagic acid, iridoids, lignans, methylene-dioxy compounds, steroids, tannins and terpenoids were tested for their presence using the standard phytochemical tests [13][14][15][16][17] . The following chemical tests were employed to identify the secondary metabolites ( Table 2).…”
