| Abstract | Geographically distinct populations of Paterson’s curse (Echium plantagineum L., Boragineacea), found near roadsides across New South Wales and Victoria, Australia were surveyed along 3 distinct longitudinal transects in spring of 2011 for presence of pyrrolizidine alkaloids and naphthoquinones in sampled plants. Composite samples of shoots and roots were collected from each of 45 sites; shoot extracts were subjected to solid phase extraction and LC-ESI/MS for determination of pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) and related N-oxides (PANOs), while root periderm extracts were analysed for naphthoquinone content spectrophotometrically and by LC-ESI/MS. Metabolic profiling of 12 possible PAs and PANOs showed their consistent appearance in all shoot extracts, with lepthamine N-oxide, echimidine-N oxide and echumine N-oxide predominant. The three major PANOs were significantly higher in northern sampling locations than those further south. Root extracts contained shikonin and several related naphthoquinones, as well as two of the major PANOs found in the leaves. Naphthoquinones were highest in the northwest corner of the sampled region. The patterns of abundance of secondary metabolites in E. plantagienum suggest that climate change might result in greater production of defensive compounds by E. plantagineum, making this weed increasingly toxic to livestock. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
