| Abstract: | The presence of the cyanogenic glycoside prunasin in leaves and fruits of Cotoneaster species was confirmed by GLC. In addition amygdalin was found in ripe fruits. The variation in prunasin and amygdalin was measured during development of the flowers and fruits of C. praecox and C. bullata. The importance of these findings for chemotaxonomy and physiology is discussed. |
