Abstract
In this paper, the volatile phytochemical pattern of the resins of five Commiphora Jacq. species collected in Socotra Island was reported. Different populations were studied, some of which for the first time, by using head space-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) sampling technique to collect the volatiles emitted from these species. All the captured volatile compounds in the accessions were identified and quantified by means of Gas-Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). The obtained results highlighted the presence of terpene compounds, mainly monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, which followed a different trend among the studied species in accordance with the ecology of the collection areas of the species. Sesquiterpenes were predominant in C. kua and, in part, in C. ornifolia; monoterpenes were predominant in C. planifrons and C. parvifolia, whereas oxygenated monoterpenes were predominant in C. socotrana. A high number of the so-called other volatile components were found in C. planifrons. The dominant compounds were γ-cadinene in both accessions of C. kua, β-eudesmol in the first accession of C. ornifolia and δ-cadinene in its second accession, limonene in both accessions of both C. planifrons and C. parvifolia, terpinen-4-ol in both accessions of C. socotrana. The meaning of the data was considered under the chemophenetic, ecological and ethnobotanical aspects.
期刊介绍:
Biochemical Systematics and Ecology is devoted to the publication of original papers and reviews, both submitted and invited, in two subject areas: I) the application of biochemistry to problems relating to systematic biology of organisms (biochemical systematics); II) the role of biochemistry in interactions between organisms or between an organism and its environment (biochemical ecology).
In the Biochemical Systematics subject area, comparative studies of the distribution of (secondary) metabolites within a wider taxon (e.g. genus or family) are welcome. Comparative studies, encompassing multiple accessions of each of the taxa within their distribution are particularly encouraged. Welcome are also studies combining classical chemosystematic studies (such as comparative HPLC-MS or GC-MS investigations) with (macro-) molecular phylogenetic studies. Studies that involve the comparative use of compounds to help differentiate among species such as adulterants or substitutes that illustrate the applied use of chemosystematics are welcome. In contrast, studies solely employing macromolecular phylogenetic techniques (gene sequences, RAPD studies etc.) will be considered out of scope. Discouraged are manuscripts that report known or new compounds from a single source taxon without addressing a systematic hypothesis. Also considered out of scope are studies using outdated and hard to reproduce macromolecular techniques such as RAPDs in combination with standard chemosystematic techniques such as GC-FID and GC-MS.
