Mahonia trifoliata

Many tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids are highly toxic. Berberine, for instance, interacts with DNA, colchicine causes polyploidy. They are therefore feeding deterrents (E 5.5.3). However, as with other secondary products, there are specialized animals which are able to tolerate the alkaloids. Lophocereine, for instance, which is a feeding deterrent for Drosophila species, is endured by some Drosophila races specifically associated with the producer plant. Berberine acts also as fungitoxin in the leaves of Mahonia trifoliata (E 5.4). [Pg.422]
