Koidz., and its structure was elucidated by HRESI-MS, NMR experi- ments and chemical analyses as 3-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)-α-L-rhamno- pyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-arabinopyranosyl hederagenin 28-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)-β-D–xylopyra- nosyl-(1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→6)]-β-D-glucopyranoside.展开更多

The experimental results indicated that the seeds of kalopananx septemlobus had physiological dormancy because of unmature embryo and existence of inhibitory matter in the seed. Temperature-accelerated germination was a preferable and essential way to assure the germination. Seed dormancy could be overcome through accelerating germination. Firstly, warm treatment should be done, morphological maturity occurred, then, followed by lower temperature treatment, reaching physiological maturity, Seeding quantity, optimum density and the relations between density of seedlings and yield were studied.展开更多
