Abstract: | Five apomictic taxa from the Hieracium rohacsense group were studied for their phenolic constituent composition. The following substances represent dominant compounds in the leaves: chlorogenic acid, 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, luteolin 7-O-β-
-glucopyranoside, luteolin 4′-O-β-
-glucuronopyranoside and apigenin 4′-O-β-
-glucuronopyranoside. Within the group only quantitative differences were found, luteolin 7-O-glucoside being the most important chemotaxonomic marker. Each taxon has its own specific quantitative pattern, invariable within the taxon. Based on these characteristic profiles, H. rohacsense can be distinguished from a closely related and still undescribed taxon from Mt. Pip Ivan. The proportion of luteolin 7-O-glucoside to apigenin 4′-O-glucuronoside also clearly separates the individuals of two morphologically close species—H. ratezaticum and H. pseudocaesium, which corresponds to a few slight but recognisable morphological and phenological characteristics. The ontogenetic stage of leaf development and seasonal variation are also important factors, which must be taken into consideration, as the quantity of the substances changes during leaf ontogeny and with season. |
