The results showed that both the box dimension and the information dimention of P. virginica were obviously higher than those of P. asiatica in the high human-distributed environment. P. asiatica was mostly distributed in the environment with compacted soil. The information dimension on the basis of leaf probability in the boxes showed that the populations of P. virginica and P. asiatica in low density could exploit environmental resources effectively.展开更多

A total of 45.6 mg of compound 1 and 293.8 mg of compound 2 were purified from 1341 mg of the n-butanol extract of P. asiatica. The structures of the two PhGs were tentatively identified as plantamajoside and aeteoside or isoacteoside by eleetrospray ionization multi stage tandem mass spectrometry （ESI-MS^n） in the negative ion mode.展开更多

A total of 45.6 mg of plantamajoside and 293.8 mg of acteoside were purified from 1341 mg of the n-butanol extract of P. asiatica, with a purity of 〉93.3% as determined by HPLC. The HPCPC fractions were analyzed by HPLC-DAD and the structures were identified by their retention time, UV, electrospray ionization multi stage tandem mass spectrometry（ESI-MSn） in the negative ion mode, and confirmed by NMR experiments. The characteristic fragment ions of ESI-MS of the two PhGs isolated from Plantago asiatica were discussed, which are specific and useful for the identification of the structures of PhGs.展开更多
