AI Article Synopsis

  • Three new isoflavonoids (ulexin C, ulexin D, and 7-O-methylisolupalbigenin) were isolated from the dichloromethane extract of Ulex airensis and characterized using spectroscopic methods.
  • Ulexin D was also found in the extract of another species, Ulex europaeus ssp. europaeus.
  • In total, 18 known compounds were identified alongside the new metabolites, and their antifungal activity was tested against Cladosporium cucumerinum using a bioautographic TLC assay.

Article Abstract

From the dichloromethane extract of Ulex airensis three new isoflavonoids, ulexin C (1), ulexin D (2), and 7-O-methylisolupalbigenin (3), were isolated and characterized by spectroscopic methods. Ulexin D (2) was also identified from the dichloromethane extract of Ulex europaeus ssp. europaeus. Together with these new metabolites, 18 compounds of previously known structures were isolated and identified from both species. The antifungal activity of these compounds was tested against Cladosporium cucumerinum by a bioautographic TLC assay.

The application of spectral vegetation indices for the purpose of vegetation monitoring and modeling increased largely in recent years. Nonetheless, the interpretation of biophysical properties of vegetation through their spectral signature is still a challenging task. This is particularly true in Mediterranean oak forest characterized by a high spatial and temporal heterogeneity.
