  • C-21 steroidal glycosides from Cynanchum wallichii Wight
    Chinese Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2009
    Co-Authors: Zhang Qi-hui
    Abstract:

    Aim To study C-21 glycosides of Cynanchum wallichii Wight.Methods Four compounds were isolated by means of silica gel column ODS column and HPLC,and the structures of these 4 steroidal glycosides were determined on the basis of both their physical and chemical characters and spectral analysis.Results 4 steroidal glycosides were isolated from Cynanchum wallichii Wight,and identified as:caudatin(Ⅰ),gagamine(Ⅱ),caudatin-3-O-β-D-oleandropyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-cymaropyranosyl(1→4)-β-D-cymaropyranoside(Ⅲ),qinyangshengenin-3-O-β-D-oleandropyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-cymaropyranosyl(1→4)-β-D-cymaropyranoside(Ⅳ).Conclusion Sugar chains of compounds Ⅲ and Ⅳ were composed of 2,6-dideoxy-pyranoses and both were isolated from Cynanchum wallichii Wight.for the first time.

  • Cynanchum and the Cynanchinae (Apocynaceae – Asclepiadoideae): a molecular, anatomical and latex triterpenoid study
    Organisms Diversity & Evolution, 2002
    Co-Authors: Sigrid Liede, Henning Kunze
    Abstract:

    Abstract The phylogeny of the genus Cynanchum s. str. is studied using cpDNA spacers and ITS. Morphological, anatomical and latex triterpenoid data are interpreted in light of the molecular results, and discrepancies are discussed. Vegetative characters are better indicators of relationship than floral characters, especially corona characters. The monophyly of all Malagasy species and, nested within the latter, of all stem-succulent taxa is ascertained and the genera Folotsia, Karimbolea, Platykeleba and Sarcostemma are subsumed under Cynanchum. One African species, C. galgalense, is excluded from Cynanchum.

  • Circumscription of the Genus Cynanchum (Apocynaceae—Asclepiadoideae)
    Systematic Botany, 2009
    Co-Authors: Sigrid Liede, Angelika Täuber
    Abstract:

    Abstract Analysis of the trnT-trnL spacer, the trnL intron and the trnL-trnF spacer of 65 species of Cynanchum, 33 members of the Metastelminae, and seven representatives of other Asclepiadeae shows that Cynanchum in its present circumscription is polyphyletic. Both the genus Cynanchum and the subtribe Metastelminae s.l. split along the Old World—New World geographic division. The only exception to this division is Cynanchum subgenus Mellichampia, which belongs to Cynanchum s. str. For the Old World Cynanchum relatives, the subtribe Cynanchinae is re-established. The remaining New World sections of Cynanchum are not monophyletic. The South American members of section Cynanchum join the morphologically aberrant Grisebachiella hieronymi. Section Macbridea is associated with Funastrum. In the Old World, the succulent genera Folotsia, Karimbolea, Platykeleba, and Sarcostemma are monophyletic with stem-succulent Cynanchum and nested within a clade of exclusively Malagasy Cynanchum species.

  • Dissolution of Cynanchum sect. Macbridea (Apocynaceae-Asclepiadoideae)
    Nordic Journal of Botany, 2002
    Co-Authors: Sigrid Liede, Ulrich Meve
    Abstract:

    As a consequence of the recently established polyphyly of American Cynanchum (Apocynaceae—Asclepiadoideae), the former section Macbridea is analyzed in detail using molecular, karyological and morphological data. Three of the five species, C. angustifolium, C. peninsulare and C. utahense, are transferred to Funastrum: F. angustifolium, F peninsulare and F utahense. The remaining two species, C. grisebachii and C wrightianum are known from the type only and it is suggested to cite them as “Cynanchum” grisebachii and “C.”wrightianum until analyzable material becomes available.
