  • Compounds of (+)-5,5'-dimethoxylariciresinol (1) and (3S,5R,6S,7E)-5,6-epoxy-3-hydroxy-7-megastigmen-9-one (2) were isolated from an EtOAc extract of the whole plant of Sasa borealis (Hack.) Makino (Gramineae) for the first time in the present investigation. The structures of compounds were identified by analysis of spectral data including 1D- and 2D-NMR spectra as well as by comparison of their data with the published values. These compounds have never been isolated previously from the family Gramineae.

  • Four flavone compounds were isolated from the whole plants of Setaria faberi Herrmann (Gramineae) through repeated column chromatography. Their chemical structures were elucidated as tricin (1), and three C-glycosylflavone, 2"-O-rhamnosylvitexin (2), 2"-O-rhamnosylscoparin (3), and 2"-O-rhamnosylorientin (4), respectively, by spectroscopic analysis. These compounds were isolated for the first time from this plant.

  • A lignan and four flavonoid derivatives were isolated from the aerial parts of Panicum dichotomiflorum Michaux (Gramineae) through repeated column chromatography. Their chemical structures were identified as (-)-pinoresinol (1), tricin (2), luteolin (3), luteolin-4'-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosde (4) and luteolin-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranosde (5), respectively, by spectroscopic analysis. These compounds were isolated for the first time from this plant.

  • Reiterated normal-phase column chromatography lead to the isolation and purification of six known compounds but for the first time from the whole plant of Sasa borealis (Hack.) Makino (Gramineae): tricin 4'-O-(erythro-${\beta}$-guaia-cylglyceryl) ether (1), tricin 4'-O-(threo-${\beta}$-guaiacylglyceryl) ether (2), tricin 4'-O-[erythro-${\beta}$-guaiacyl-(9'-O-acetyl)-glyceryl] ether (3), tricin 4'-O-[threo-${\beta}$-guaiacyl-(9'-O-acetyl)-glyceryl] ether (4), (-)-pinoresinol (5), and vanillin (6). The structures of the compounds (1-6) were established based on interpretation of high resolution NMR (COSY, HSQC, HMBC, and NOESY) spectral data. In particular, compounds 1 and 3 were diastereomers of compounds 2 and 4, respectively. These two sets of diastereomers were able to be simultaneously identified and quantified by a gradient reversed-phase HPLC method with UV photodiode array, This sensitive HPLC method is noteworthy as a simultaneous separation and identification method to test the extract of the family Gramineae which contains these compounds.

  • The pollen of the sediments from the Lake Hane were analysed for reconstruction of vegetation history around Ohda-City in Southwest Japan, and the correlation with the pollen zone reported for the Lake Shinji. From the pollen assemblages of 29 samples from core OH94 (19.7 m), two pollen zone were established, and they were subdivided into five subzones in ascending order as following; Cyclobalanopsis-Catanopsis pollen zone (Cyclobalanopsis subzone, Catanopsis subzone and, Podocarpus subzone), and Gramineae pollen zone (Cryptomeria subzone and Cyclobalanopsis-Quercus subzone). The K-Ah volcanic ash is identified in the Cyclobalanopsis-Catanopsis pollen zone. We estimated the beginning of the Cyclobalanopsis-Catanopsis pollen zone was before c.a. 6,300 BP.

  • The flora of the studied basin in the upper Keum River was listed as 237taxa; 63families, 162genera, 212species, 22varieties and 3forms. Based on the list of the ecosystem disturbance plants by the Ministry of Environment, 4taxa were recorded in the studied basin : Paspalum distichum(Gramineae), Paspalum distichum var. indutum(Gramineae), Ambrosia artemisiifolia var. elatior(Compositae), Ambrosia trifida(Compositae). Naturalized plants was listed as 54taxa; 16families, 41genera, 51species, 3varieties and naturalization index was 22.8percent of 1/4 the vascular plants. Upper Keum River was dominant floristic : indicator species were Salix gracilistyla community, Phragmites japonica community, native plants were Morus alba community, Spiraea prunifolia for. simpliciflora community, planting plants were Populus euramericana community, naturalized plants were Solidago serotina community, Helianthus tuberosus community.

  • One hundred and one noxious weeds on cultivated land of Taiwan were investigated for the occurrence of "Kranz" leaf anatomy and activities of PEP carboxylase and $C_4$ acid decarboxylating enzymes : NADP-malic enzyme, NAD-malic enzyme, PEP carboxykinase. Based on the leaf anatomy and a/b chlorophyll ratio, twenty-seven species exhibit "Kranz" type leaf anatomy, and seventy-four species were found without it. Among the species investigated, Digitaria radicosa (Presl) Miq., Leptochloa chinensis (L.) Nees, and Sporobolus fertilis (Steud.) W. D. Clayton in the Gramineae were first recorded as $C_4$ plants. Twenty-sven species of "Kranz" type leaf anatomy, include those of monocotyledon ; sixteen species in Gramineae, six species in Cyperaceae. Those of dicotyledon ; two species each in Euphorbiaceae and Amaranthaceae and one species in Portulacaceae. The subtype of fourteen previously uninvestigated species among twenty-seven species were further determined. The properties of the three decarboxylating enzyme from representative species were also characterized.

  • As part of study of the constituents of bamboo grasses, the leaves of Sasa borealis (Hackel) Makino (Gramineae) were examined. Friedelin, glutinol, isoorientin and isovitexin have been reported as constituents of bamboo grasses. In this study, tricin and two flavone glycosides, tricin $7-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ and luteolin $6-C-{\alpha}-L-arabinopyranoside$ have been isolated from EtOAc extract of S. borealis, by consecutive silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and a repetitive HPLC. The structures of these compounds were determined by IR, $^1H-NMR,\;^{13}C-NMR,\;^{13}C-^1H\;COSY,\;^1H-^1H\;COSY,\;HMBC$ and Mass spectral data.
