De. Justice et al., VACUOLAR FLAVONOIDS OF ROCKY-MOUNTAIN MAPLE, ACER GLABRUM TORREY (ACERACEAE), Biochemical systematics and ecology, 23(3), 1995, pp. 263-265
Vacuolar flavonoids were investigated in Acer glabrum and compared to
published data. The profile consists of two unidentified flavanones, t
wo kaempferol 3-O-monoglycosides, two quercetin 3-O-monoglycosides, ru
tin and isorhamnetin. The presence of flavanones sheds new light on th
e relationship between A. glabrum and its supposed closest relatives.
No differences were found in the profiles of infraspecific taxa.
