Resumen
SCHEFFER-BASSO, Simone Meredith; CHINI, Silvia Ortiz; BERTOL, Charise Dallazem y ESCOSTEGUY, Pedro Alexandre Varella. Spatiotemporal variability of phenolics in Lotus corniculatus. Rev. de Ciências Agrárias [online]. 2018, vol.41, n.2, pp.111-120. ISSN 0871-018X. https://doi.org/10.19084/RCA18034.
The concentration of catechin, epicatechin, rutin and quercetin was determined by high performance liquid chromatography on methanolic extracts from leaves+stems and flowers+fruits of Lotus corniculatus harvested at vegetative and reproductive stages. Phenological stage did not affect the flavonoid concentration of leaves+stems extracts, which presented higher concentration of catechin (2.11 mg.g-1) than flowers+fruits extract (1.18 mg.g-1). The highest concentrations of epicatechin (11,6 mg.g-1), quercetin (1,26 mg.g-1) and rutin (2,23 mg.g-1) occurred in the flower+ fruit extract. The concentration of phenolics in this species seems to be dependent on the biomass allocation in the vegetative and reproductive organs of the plants.
