Abstract
The content of taxol and related compounds in needle and stem tissues of exotic yews growing in the Chollipo Arboretum which located in the West Sea of Korea were determined by HPLC. A considerable variation in contents of taxol and the related compounds within species and among cultivars were observed. The content of taxol was much higher in the needles than those in the young stem tissues except T. X media cv. Vermuleun, T. baccata cv. Washingtonii, and T. X cuspidata cv. Nana, and the content of 10-deacetyl baccatin III(10-DAB III) was also slightly higher in the needle. The needle of T. cuspidata cv. Nigra collected from April was contained the high amount of taxol(1,027
우리나라에 식재된 외래주목의 taxol 및 전구체인 10-deacetyl baccatin III(10-DAB III)의 함랑을 조사하기 위해 천리포수목원에 식재된 외래주목의 잎과 줄기로부터 추출하여 HPLC로 정량분석하였다. 외래주목의 잎과 줄기의 taxol 함량은 종간 및 종내, 그리고 부위에 따라 상당한 변이를 보였다. Taxol 함량은 T. X media cv. Vcrmulcun, T. baccata cv. Washingtonii, T. X cuspidata cv. Nana을 제외하고 잎에서 놓았으며, 전구체인 10-deacetyl baccatin III(10-DAB III)는 모든 종의 잎에서 높았다. 그 중 4월에 채집한 T. cuspidata cv. Nigra의 잎의 taxol 함량은 건물중 당 1,027
