Flavonoids of the Muhlenbergiz montana complex
1991
Herrera A, Y. | Bain, J.F.
Specimens from natural populations of Muhlenbergia montana (Nutt.) Hitch. and related species were analysed for their flavonoid content. Twenty-four flavonoids from 14 species were separated and 22 of the compounds identified. Most were glycosylated derivatives of luteolin, apigenin and tricin. Two flavonols, quercetin 3-O-rutinoside and quercetin 3-O glucoside, and two flavanones were also identified. Flavonoid patterns were distinct for all perennial species and identical for the two annual species examined. Phenetic analysis of the flavonoid characters does not support the inclusion of the annual species M. crispiseta and M. peruviana as part of the M. montana complex.
