Figure 1.
A phylogeny of the major plant groups (APG II, 2003) with occurrences of two classes of secondary compounds (based on Rodman et al. [1998] and Murray et al. [1982]) superimposed. Families containing furanocoumarins include Fabaceae (Fabales), Meliaceae and Rutaceae (Sapindales), Moraceae and Rosaceae (Rosales), Apiaceae and Pittosporaceae (Apiales), and Asteraceae (Asterales). Asterisked orders represent individual reports of furanocoumarins from a single species. One report in Cyperales is not shown.
