Malus spp

Uptake of B is species dependent. Greenhouse pot experiments were conducted to study B uptake by different plant species, Brassica juncea (L.) Czern (wild brown mustard), Festuca arundinacea Schreb. L. (tall fescue), and Brassica napus (canola) (Banuelos et al., 1993). Results showed that the greatest total amount of above ground biomass and below surface biomass was produced by tall fescue and the highest concentrations of tissue B were from roots of tall fescue. A correlation for B and Ca has been reported by Dixon et al. (1973), where B sprays have been shown to increase Ca transport into apples ( Malus spp.). 

Hydroxyflavanone represents the simplest compound of this class and is found in many legumes.9 2-Hydroxyflavanones, which are expected to be quite labile and converted to their corresponding flavones, have also been identified. These include the 2,5,7-trihydroxyflavanone 7-0-glucoside (8) in Malus spp.,80 2,5-dihydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone in Populus nigra, 1 6,7,8-trihydroxy-5-methoxyflavanone (9) in Isodon oresbius,82 and 2,5-dihydroxy-7-methoxyflavanone and its 6-C- and 8-C-methyl isomers (10) in Friesodielsia enghiana.83 All of these exhibit a lack of B-ring hydroxylation. 

A more complicated example arises from the strange reactions used to make malic acid from chloral and ketene. An initial [2 + 2] cycloaddition (Chapter 35) is followed by acid treatment and then treatment with an excess of aqueous NaOH. Neutralization gives malic acid, an acid found naturally in apples (Malus spp.).
