          Abstract

          En este trabajo se presenta el estudio de la actividad alelopática de las lactonas terpénicas presentes en las fracciones clorofórmicas de Lagascea mollis Cav (Asteraceae). Para tal efecto se evalúa el porcentaje de semillas germinadas y la longitud de radícula de semillas de arroz (Oryza sativa L.). La bioactividad observada en las fracciones clorofórmicas es contrastada con la correspondiente en el extracto etanólico crudo. El mecanismo de interacción del metabolito se establece teniendo en cuenta el índice mitótico del meristema radicular, el estudio micromorfológico de la raíz y la conductividad del eflujo celular. Adicionalmente se caracteriza la arvense mediante su descripción morfológica y la determinación de los índices farmacognósticos. La investigación demuestra que los constituyentes químicos de las fracciones clorofórmicas de Lagascea mollis manifiestan efecto significativo sobre la división celular y el crecimiento radicular de Oryza sativa donde se observan alteraciones morfológicas, lo que evidencia la actividad alelopática de la arvense sobre el crecimiento de la gramínea.

          Translated abstract

          In this work, the study of the allelopathic activity of terpenic lactones on chloroformic fractions of Lagascea mollis Cav (Asteraceae) is reported. To this effect it is determined the percentage of germinated seeds and the radicular length of rice seeds (Oryza sativa L.). The observed bioactivity is contrasted with the corresponding one in the raw ethanolic extract. The mechanism of the metabolite interaction is established taking into account the mitotic index of the radicular meristeme, the micromorphologic study of the root and the conductivity of the cellular efflux. Additionally, the weed or arvense characterization is done by morphologic description and determination of pharmacognostic indexes. This research demonstrates that chemical constituents of the chloroformic fractions of Lagascea mollis manifest significant effect on cellular division and radicular growth of Oryza sativa where morphological alterations are observed, evidencing the allelopathic activity of the weed on the growth of the gramineous species.

            Lignans and sesquiterpene lactones from Artemisia sieversiana and Inula racemosa.

            The aerial parts of Artemisia sieversiana afforded, in addition to beta-sitosterol, stigmasterol and daucosterol, two novel lignans as well as one known and three new guaianolides. The roots of Inula racemosa gave beta-sitosterol, daucosterol and isoalantolactone. The structures were determined by a combination of spectral methods (IR, EIMS, 1H and 13C NMR, DEPT, COSY, NOESY and HETCOR). All isolates were subjected to antifungal tests. Isoalantolactone, a major sesquiterpene lactone of I. racemosa, was found to be active against the human pathogenic fungi. Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, Geotrichum candidum, Candida tropicalis and C. albicans at concentrations of 50, 50, 25, 25 and 25 micrograms/ml, respectively. The taxonomic significance of the characterized constituents is discussed briefly.

              Sesquiterpene lactone-based classification of three Asteraceae tribes: a study based on self-organizing neural networks applied to chemosystematics.

              This work describes an application of artificial neural networks on a small data set of sesquiterpene lactones (STLs) of three tribes of the family Asteraceae. Structurally different types of representative STLs from seven subtribes of the tribes Eupatorieae, Heliantheae and Vernonieae were selected as input data for self-organizing neural networks. Encoding the 3D molecular structures of STLs and their projection onto Kohonen maps allowed the classification of Asteraceae into tribes and subtribes. This approach allowed the evaluation of structural similarities among different sets of 3D structures of sesquiterpene lactones and their correlation with the current taxonomic classification of the family. Predictions of the occurrence of STLs from a plant species according to the taxa they belong to were also performed by the networks. The methodology used in this work can be applied to chemosystematic or chemotaxonomic studies of Asteraceae.
