Mass spectrometry as a tool for the dereplication of specialised metabolites from DC.

genus comprises 26 species, half of them have been phytochemical investigations regarding the chemical composition, and coumarins have been considered the chemotaxonomic markers in the genus. Herein DC (Asteraceae), a native plant from Brazil, is investigated for the first time. Twenty-six compounds were isolated from aerial parts of DC.

The chemistry of (Less.) H. Rob. flowers and its antimicrobial activities.

Twenty-one known specialised metabolites were isolated from the flowers of (Less.) H. Rob.

Molecular diversity of rhizobia-nodulating native Mimosa of Brazilian protected areas.

Symbiotic Paraburkholderia have been increasingly studied in the past 20 years, especially when associated with Mimosa; however, studies with native/endemic species are still scarce. In this study, thirty strains were isolated from root nodules of native Mimosa paranapiacabae and M. micropteris in two locations of the Campos Gerais.

TOCSY, hydrogen decoupling and computational calculations to an unequivocal structural elucidation of a new sesquiterpene derivative and identification of other constituents from Praxelis sanctopaulensis.

Introduction: Praxelis genus comprises 24 species, however, only two species of this genus have been chemically investigated. Here we investigated Praxelis sanctopaulensis, a native plant from Brazil, that occurs mainly in Cerrado regions.

Objective: The goal was to identify the specialised metabolites from P.

Phytoprostane and phenolic compounds from .

The chemical investigation of (Sch.Bip Baker) R.M.

Chromolaena laevigata (Asteraceae) as a source of endophytic non-aflatoxigenic Aspergillus flavus: chemical profile in different culture conditions and biological applications.

Endophytes are microorganisms that form symbiotic relationships with their host. These microorganisms can produce a variety of secondary metabolites, some of which have inhibitory effects on pests and pathogens or even act to promote plant growth. Due to these characteristics, these microorganisms are used as sources of biologically active substances for a wide range of biotechnological applications.

Chemical constituents and dereplication study of (Less.) H.Rob. (Asteraceae) by UHPLC-HRMS and molecular networking.

Chemical investigation of (Less.) H.Rob.

New cadinene-sesquiterpene from (lam.) R. M. King & H. Rob (Asteraceae) aerial parts and biological activities.

Phytochemical investigation of led to the isolation of a new cadinene-sesquiterpene, chromolaevigone glucoside (), along with nine known compounds: daucosterol (), stigmasterol glycoside (), stigmasterol (), β-sitosterol (), pilloin (), gonzalitosin I (), quercetin-3--α-rhamnopyranoside (), 7,7-dihydroxy-calamen-12-oic acid lactone () and trachelanthic acid (). Others 11 known compounds were identified by UHPLC-HRMS/MS. These compounds are being described for the first time in this species, with the exception of cadinene .

Structural Characterization and Biological Evaluation of 18-Nor-ent-labdane Diterpenoids from Grazielia gaudichaudeana.

The phytochemical investigation of Grazielia gaudichaudeana aerial parts yielded 15 compounds, including diterpenes, triterpenes, sterols and flavonoids. With exception to ent-kaurenoic acid diterpenes, the compounds isolated are being described for the first time in this species. Some unusual H-NMR chemical shifts of 18-nor-ent-labdane (7-9) led us carry out a conformational analysis by theoretical calculations in order to support the experimental data.

Phylogenetic diversity of rhizobia nodulating native Mimosa gymnas grown in a South Brazilian ecotone.

Floristic surveys performed in "Campos Gerais" (Paraná, Brazil), an ecotone of Mata Atlântica and Cerrado biomes, highlights the richness and relative abundance of the family Fabaceae and point out the diversity and endemism of Mimosa spp. Our study reports the genetic diversity of rhizobia isolated from root nodules of native/endemic Mimosa gymnas Barneby in three areas of Guartelá State Park, an important conservation unit of "Campos Gerais". Soils of the sample areas were characterized as sandy, acid, poor in nutrients and organic matter.
