A pregeijerene isomer from Juniperus erectopatens foliage.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A hydrocarbon that is widespread in Juniperus foliage was isolated from Juniperus erectopatens (Cheng and L. K. Fu) R. P. Adams and identified as (E,E,E)-1,7-dimethylcyclodeca-1,4,7-triene (pregeijerene B). Geometry of the disubstituted double bond was determined by IR and NMR spectroscopy, while that of the trisubstituted double bonds was proven by comparison of the products of selective hydrogenation of the title compound and of pregeijerene. Common biosynthesis of pregeijerene B and a germacrane sesquiterpenoid, 8alpha-acetoxyhedycaryol, is inferred from their co-occurrence in foliage of 24 Juniperus species.

متن کاملBeat sampling accuracy in estimating spruce spider mite (Acari: Tetranychidae) populations and injury on juniper.
The use of a standardized beat sampling method for estimating spruce spider mite, Oligonychus ununguis (Jacobi) (Acari: Tetranychidae), densities on a widely used evergreen ornamental plant species, Juniperus chinensis variety 'Sargentii' A. Henry (Cupressaceae), was examined. There was a significant positive relationship between total spruce spider mite densities and spider mite densities from...
متن کاملChemosystematics of Juniperus: Effects of leaf drying on the essential oil composition of Juniperus pinchotii
A bulk collection of terminal branchlets was made from J. pinchotii and subjected to drying at 42oC (24 hrs), then stored for up to 24 mos. at 22oC (room temperature, RT). The oils were distilled and analyzed from fresh, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 mos. storage at RT. The oil yields showed a slight decline initially, but remained fairly constant. Camphor, camphene hydrate and citronellal declin...
متن کاملAerial dispersal and host plant selection by neonate Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Lepidoptera: Psychidae)
1. Neonate evergreen bagworms, Thyridopteryx ephemeraeformis (Haworth) (Lepidoptera: Psychidae), disperse by dropping on a strand of silk, termed silking, and ballooning on the wind. Larvae construct silken bags with fragments of plant foliage. This species is highly polyphagous, feeding on more than 125 species of woody plants of 45 families. The larvae commonly infests juniper (Juniperus spp....
متن کاملSubterranean, Herbivore-Induced Plant Volatile Increases Biological Control Activity of Multiple Beneficial Nematode Species in Distinct Habitats
While the role of herbivore-induced volatiles in plant-herbivore-natural enemy interactions is well documented aboveground, new evidence suggests that belowground volatile emissions can protect plants by attracting entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs). However, due to methodological limitations, no study has previously detected belowground herbivore-induced volatiles in the field or quantified the...
