Application of the HPLC-SPE-NMR technique to identify the alkaloids in an EtOH extract of the leaves of Neolitsea sericea var. aurata led to the characterization of 14 alkaloids while consuming plant material equivalent to 1.1 g. Of these, seven are N-oxides, four of which are new, namely, 9S,17S-pallidine Nalpha-oxide (6), 1S,2S-reticuline Nalpha-oxide (8), 6R,6aS-boldine Nbeta-oxide (9), and 6S,6aS-N-methyllaurotetanine Nalpha-oxide (13). Their structures were also confirmed by partial synthesis.

The future distribution data of var. , and were acquired from the MigClim, a GIS-based (hybrid) cellular automation model, modeling and the traditional SDM modeling using BioMod2. The current SDM projections, the traditional SDM predictions, which were assumed the climate-change-only, and model validation were performed using BioMod2 with 686 presence/absence data for each plant species.

Deer overpopulation is a major threat to forest ecosystems worldwide resulting in loss of natural vegetation cover and increased sapling mortality. To resolve this problem of deer overpopulation, different strategies such as deer exclusion and gap creation have been explored to determine more efficient methods to restore deer-damaged forest ecosystems. In the current study, we applied a 2 × 2 factorial design of four different treatment groups in warm temperate secondary forests: closed canopy with deer as control, closed canopy without deer, clearcut with deer and clearcut without deer.

In this study, we sequenced the complete plastid genome (plastome) of , an evergreen broad-leaved tree endemic to East Asia, a woody component of East Asian warm-temperate and subtropical forests across China, Korea, and Japan. The plastome of is assembled as a single contig (152,722 bp). A large and a small single copy (93,785 and 18,795 bp, respectively) of the genome are separated by a pair of inverted repeats (20,071 bp).

Background: Although the inhibitory effect of mistletoe on cancer cell growth has been reported, the underlying mechanisms to explain its anti-proliferative activity are not fully studied. Thus, we elucidated the potential molecular mechanism of the branch from Taxillus yadoriki (TY) parasitic to Neolitsea sericea (NS) (TY-NS-B) for the anti-proliferative effect.
Methods: Anti-cell proliferative effect was evaluated by MTT assay.
