| Abstract: | Leaf extracts of 43 plants representing all 10 species of the genus Sarracenia were analyzed by 2D-PC, high voltage electrophoresis and G. C., for their amino acids and flavonoids. All species contained only low concentrations of common amino acids and common flavonoids. The taxonomic and ecological significance of these results are discussed. |
