For both species, members of triand tetraoxygenated coumarins al...

of GWU/lMSE/Serial T-487/84 16 April 1984 A STEADY-STATE VERSION OF A DYNAMIC OPTIMAL BUDGETING PROBLEM by . . Richard M. Soland We present and justify a steady-state version of a dynamic optimal budgeting problem arising in the Resource Dynamics project. The steady-state model is first reduced to closed form, and then it is analyzed for each of two choices of objective function. Optimal soluti...

Geraniaceae are known for their unusual plastid genomes (plastomes), with the genus Pelargonium being most conspicuous with regard to plastome size and gene organization as judged by the sequenced plastomes of P. x hortorum and P. alternans. However, the hybrid origin of P. x hortorum and the uncertain phylogenetic position of P. alternans obscure the events that led to these extraordinary plas...

Investigation of the benzopyranones from the roots of PELARGONIUM SIDOIDES led to the identification of 15 benzopyranones, among them the novel compounds 12 and 14. Furthermore, benzopyranones 4 and 15 were detected in PELARGONIUM SIDOIDES for the first time. Structure determinations were performed by one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. An HPLC system for the discrimination of these benz...
