Description
Summary:The chemical indexes, suggested by Gottlieb et al., have not been used before regarding evolutionary tendency of species in the Swartzia genus. However, the importance of this work encour- aged for an analysis of the Swartzia genus using the metabolites isolated from nine species. The analy- sis, based on calculated chemical indexes, provided an evolutionary tendency for these plants, which correlates with the classification based on morphological analysis.
