Abstract
Seedlings and micropropagated leaves of Virola surinamensis afforded ( 2S, 3R, oxy-4-methyl-2-(7'-piperonyl-n-heptyl)-butanolide, a novel rep resentative of the juruenolide group. Correlations between enhancement of shoot proliferation and increased lactone formation were observed by adding several phytohormones to culture media of seedling explants.
