Gardenia storckii | |
Gardenia storckii, locally known as Mbolovatu or Ndrenga, is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is the only gardenia occurring abundantly in the forested area of Serua Province in southeastern Viti Levu, to which its range is confined. It has been noted in dense, dry, or secondary forest as a slender tree 2-15m high and with a trunk to 14 cm in diameter. Flowers have been obtained in January through March, and fruits between April and November. It produces an abundance of latex. The resiniferous buds are used for chewing, and an extract of the roots is used medicinally for constipation. [2] [3]
Alleizettella rubra is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is endemic to northern Vietnam.
Belonophora talbotii is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is found in Nigeria, Cameroon and Gabon. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Gardenia anapetes is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is endemic to the Fiji island of Vanua Levu. The native gardenias of Fiji possess a diverse array of natural products. Methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as droplets of secreted resin. Phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of two other rare, sympatric species on Vanua Levu Island, G. candida and G. grievei.
Gardenia brighamii, commonly known as nānū, naʻu, or forest gardenia, is a species of flowering plant in the coffee family, Rubiaceae, that is endemic to Hawaii.
Gardenia gordonii is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae endemic to Fiji. The native gardenias of Fiji possess a diverse array of natural products. Methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as droplets of secreted resin. Phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of two other rare, sympatric species on Vanua Levu Island of the Fiji Archipelago, G. candida and G. grievei.
Gardenia grievei is a species of asterid flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. This species, among others, is endemic to Fiji with populations known from Vanua Levu and Viti Levu islands. Native gardenias of the Fiji Islands and elsewhere in the paleotropics possess a diverse array of natural products including methoxylated and oxygenated flavonols and triterpenes. These secondary plant substances accumulate on the vegetative- and floral-buds as yellow to brown droplets of secreted resin. Focused phytochemical studies of these bud exudates have been published, including a population-level study of a sympatric species, G. candida
