The results show that, the root systems of subsequent generations （generation 1998, 2000） developed satisfactorily, only a few initial generation （generation 1990, 1994） cuttings rooted and the root growth was inhibited. Around the period of callus formation and root projection through the epidermis, there was a marked, regular variation in the levels of IAA, ABA and GA4 between the initial generations and subsequent generations.展开更多

On the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence,the structure of parvifolin was established as ent-7β,20-epoxy-kaurane-15-oxo-1α,6β,7β,11β,16α-pentaol.
A new diterpene glucoside with an ent-kaurene skeleton was isolated from Isodon parvifolia(Butalin)Hara. Its structure (1) was established by spectrbscopic and chemical methods.
