Chemical Diversity of Podocarpaceae in New Caledonia: Essential Oils from Leaves of Dacrydium, Falcatifolium , and Acmopyle Species

Résumé

Plant secondary metabolites can be useful chemosystematic markers to distinguish species at different taxonomy levels. For example, sesquiterpenes and diterpenes show specific distribution patterns within conifers and so provide especially precious information about the diversity and evolutionary relationships of this group. The aim of the present study was to provide a first insight into the terpene diversity of endemic Podocarpaceae from New Caledonia. The leaf essential oils of Dacrydium araucarioides Brongn. & Gris, Dacrydium balansae Brongn. & Gris, Dacrydium guillauminii J.Buchholz, Dacrydium lycopodioides Brongn. & Gris, Falcatifolium taxoides (Brongn. & Gris) de Laub., and Acmopyle pancheri (Brongn. & Gris) Pilg. from New Caledonia were characterized by GC/FID and GC/MS analyses, and the chemotaxonomic relationships of these species were determined by comparison of their terpene compositions. Cluster analysis based on the biosynthetic origin of their volatile terpenes led to the description of three distinct groups of essential oils and showed close relationships between those of D. araucarioides and D. balansae as well as between those of A. pancheri and F. taxoides.
