The complete plastome of the South African species, Amaryllis belladonna L. (Amaryllidaceae)

ABSTRACT: Abstract The complete plastome sequence of Amaryllis belladonna L. is assembled and annotated. This is the type species of Amaryllis and therefore the type of the family Amaryllidaceae and as such, is important to document the phylogenetic position of the family. The plastome sequence has a length of 158,145 bp, with the large single copy (LSC) regions comprising 85,963 bp, the small single copy (SSC) 18634 bp and two identical inverted repeats (IR) regions each of 26,774 bp. Phylogenetic analysis fully resolved Amaryllis in a clade with Crinum L. in the Amaryllidoideae, as expected, with the Allioideae as a sister group. Agapanthus (Agapanthoideae) is a sister to the other two subfamilies in the Amaryllidaceae. The phylogenetic tree produced corresponds to previous topologies based on plastome molecular markers including matK, ndhF and rbcL. This is the first paper reporting the whole plastome comparison of the type genera of all three subfamilies in the Amaryllidaceae.

Alkaloid Constituents of the Amaryllidaceae Plant Amaryllis belladonna L.

Project description:The plant family Amaryllidaceae is well-known for its unique alkaloid constituents, which exhibit a wide range of biological activities. Its representative, Amaryllis belladonna, has a geographical distribution covering mainly southern Africa, where it has significant usage in the traditional medicine of the native people. In this study, A. belladonna samples collected in Brazil were examined for alkaloid content. Alkaloid profiles of A. belladonna bulbs were generated by a combination of chromatographic, spectroscopic and spectrometric methods, including GC-MS and 2D NMR. In vitro screening against four different parasitic protozoa (Trypanosoma cruzi, T. brucei rhodesiense, Leishmania donovani and Plasmodium falciparum) was carried out using the A. belladonna crude methanol extract, as well as three of its alkaloid isolates. Twenty-six different Amaryllidaceae alkaloids were identified in the A. belladonna bulb samples, and three of them were isolated. Evidence for their respective biosynthetic pathways was afforded via their mass-spectral fragmentation data. Improved data for 1-O-acetylcaranine was provided by 2D NMR experiments, together with new ¹H-NMR data for buphanamine. The crude extract and 3-O-acetylhamayne exhibited good antiprotozoal activity in vitro, although both with a high cytotoxic index.

Antiplasmodial alkaloids from bulbs of Amaryllis belladonna Steud.

Project description:A bioassay-guided fractionation and chemical investigation of Amaryllis belladonna Steud. bulbs resulted in the isolation and identification of the new crinane alkaloid 1,4-dihydroxy-3-methoxy powellan (1), along with the 3 known crinane alkaloids 2-4 and the two lycorane alkaloids 5-6. The structures were elucidated by interpretation of combined HR-ESIMS, CD and 2D NMR spectroscopic data. Among these isolated compounds the lycorane-type alkaloid acetylcaranine (5) exhibited strong antiplasmodial activity, while compounds 3 and 4 were moderately active, and compounds 1 and 6 were inactive.

Two new species of endemic Ecuadorean Amaryllidaceae (Asparagales, Amaryllidaceae, Amarylloideae, Eucharideae).

Project description:New species of the genera Stenomesson and Eucharis (Amaryllidaceae) are described from Ecuador. Stenomessonecuadorense is the second species of the genus reported from that country, and the only endemic one. It is related to Stenomessonminiatum and Stenomessoncampanulatum, both from Peru, with which it shares orange flower color and the fusion of the staminal corona to the perianth tube. It differs from Stenomessonminiatum by the non-urceolate perianth, from Stenomessoncampanulatum by its shorter stamens and longer perianth, and from both by its lower montane, cloud forest habitat. Eucharisruthiana, found in the vicinity of Zamora, is related to Eucharismoorei from which it differs by the narrower leaves and tepals; short, deeply cleft staminal corona; the long teeth on either side of the free filaments; the narrowly subulate, incurved free filaments; and the shorter style. The green mature fruit and campanulate floral morphology place it in Eucharissubg.Heterocharis.
