Chemical constituents of an unacceptable crucifer,Erysimum cheiranthoides, deter feeding byPieris rapae.

Journal of chemical ecology

Dimock MB, Renwick JA, Radke CD, Sachdev-Gupta K.
PMID: 24258803
J Chem Ecol. 1991 Mar;17(3):525-33. doi: 10.1007/BF00982123.

The wild cruciferErysimum cheiranthoides was found to contain extractable constituents that deterred feeding by larvae of the crucifer specialistPieris rapae when applied to cabbage leaf disks in both choice and nochoice bioassays. High-performance liquid chromatography was used to separate...

Plant-determined variation in the cardenolide content, thin-layer chromatography profiles, and emetic potency of monarch butterflies,Danaus plexippus reared on the milkweed,Asclepias eriocarpa in California.

Journal of chemical ecology

Brower LP, Seiber JN, Nelson CJ, Lynch SP, Tuskes PM.
PMID: 24415043

This paper is the first in a series on cardenolide fingerprinting of the monarch butterfly. New methodologies are presented which allow both qualitative and quantitative descriptions of the constituent cardenolides which these insects derive in the wild from specificAsclepias...

Plant-derived differences in the composition of aphid honeydew and their effects on colonies of aphid-tending ants.

Ecology and evolution

Pringle EG, Novo A, Ableson I, Barbehenn RV, Vannette RL.
PMID: 25505534
Ecol Evol. 2014 Nov;4(21):4065-79. doi: 10.1002/ece3.1277. Epub 2014 Oct 03.

In plant-ant-hemipteran interactions, ants visit plants to consume the honeydew produced by phloem-feeding hemipterans. If genetically based differences in plant phloem chemistry change the chemical composition of hemipteran honeydew, then the plant's genetic constitution could have indirect effects on...

Distribution of autogenous and host-derived chemical defenses inOreina leaf beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).

Journal of chemical ecology

Pasteels JM, Dobler S, Rowell-Rahier M, Ehmke A, Hartmann T.
PMID: 24234524
J Chem Ecol. 1995 Aug;21(8):1163-79. doi: 10.1007/BF02228318.

The pronotal and elytral defensive secretions of 10Oreina species were analyzed. Species feeding on Apiaceae, i.e.,O. frigida andO. viridis, or on Cardueae (Asteraceae), i.e.,O. bidentata, O. coerulea, andO. virgulata, produce species-specific complex mixtures of autogenous cardenolides.O. melanocephala, which feeds...

Production of cardenolides versus sequestration of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in larvae ofOreina species (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae).

Journal of chemical ecology

Dobler S, Rowell-Rahier M.
PMID: 24242111
J Chem Ecol. 1994 Mar;20(3):555-68. doi: 10.1007/BF02059597.

Adult leaf beetles of the genusOreina are known to be defended either by autogenously produced cardenolides or by pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) sequestered from the food plant, or both. In this paper we analyze larvae of differentOreina species and show...

Cardenolides from Ornithogalum boucheanum.

Planta medica

Ghannamy U, Kopp B, Robien W, Kubelka W.
PMID: 17268991
Planta Med. 1987 Apr;53(2):172-8. doi: 10.1055/s-2006-962666.

From leaves and bulbs of ORNITHOGALUM BOUCHEANUM (Kunth) Aschers. et Graebn. (Liliaceae), cardenolides were isolated by a combination of column and droplet counter-current chromatography. Their structure elucidation was performed mainly by means of (1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR, EI-MS, and LD-MS studies...

Localization of heart poisons in the monarch butterfly.

Science. 1975 Apr 04;188(4183):19-25. doi: 10.1126/science.188.4183.19.

The cardiac glycosides that monarch butterflies sequester from milkweed plants during the larval stage differ remarkably in their emetic potency and are concentrated to different degrees in the various parts of the body as well as in the two...

New Cardiac Glycosides from Digitalis lanata.

From the leaves of DIGITALIS LANATA Ehrh. two new Cardenolides have been found and structurally elucidated as Digoxigenin-3-O-beta- D-digitoxosido-beta- D-digitoxosido-beta- D-xyloside bei TLC and spectroscopic methods.

[New cardenolides of Convallaria majalis.].

PMID: 17396791
Planta Med. 1982 Jun;45(2):87-94. doi: 10.1055/s-2007-971252.

A detailed study of the cardiac glycosides of Convallaria majalis L. allowed the detection and structure determination of ten new cardenolides. Four glycosides of bipindogenin (bipindogenin-3-0-6'-deoxy-beta-D-guloside, bipindogenin-3-0-6'-deoxy-beta-D-alloside, bipindogenin-3-0-6'-deoxy-beta-D-allosido-alpha-L-rhamnoside and bipindogenin-3-0-beta-D-alloside) were isolated as well as three derivatives of sarmentologenin...

An analytical pathway for identification of cardenolides from Adonis, Convallaria, Strophanthus and Lophopetalum extracts by HPLC is described. Structure-retention-relationships between cardiac glycosides and HPLC-separations of Strophanthus gratus, Strophanthus kombé and Adonis vernalis drugs are discussed.
