SECONDARY METABOLITES IN THE FLOWER HEADS OF HAPLOPAPPUS BERTERII (ASTERACEAE) AND ITS RELATION WITH INSECT-ATTRACTING MECHANISMS
The chemical compositions of the flower heads of H. berterii and of Chrysantemum coronarium L., visited by a varied entomofauna, were compared in the search of possible correlations that might explain why different plants are visited by the same insects. Though some similarities were observed in the...
