The root of parsnip Pastinaca sativa) is eaten boiled or baked. The major classes of compounds identified in raw and cooked parsnip are monoterpenoids, aliphatic sulfur compounds, and 3-alkyl-2-methoxypyrazines [35]. To the best of our knowledge, no investigations have been performed to elucidate the character-impact compounds in parsnip by modern GC-O techniques however, it has been suggested that volatile compounds such as terpinolene, myristicin and 3-sec-butyl-2-methoxypyrazine maybe important contributors to the flavour of parsnip owing to either their high concentrations or their low threshold values, or both [35].

The majority of swallowtail butterflies of the genus Papilio (family Papilionidae) exclusively utilize plants of the family Rutaceae as hosts, with a few species exploiting limited plant species of the families Apiaceae or Lauraceae. The North American black swallowtail butterfly, Papilio polyxenes, a specialist on members of carrot family (Apiaceae), has already been shown to lay eggs in response to a mixture of two chemotactile stimulants, luteolin 7-0-(6"-0-malonyl)-/3-D-glucoside and trawr-chlorogenic acid, identified from one of its major host plants, Daucus carota (wild carrot). Further study revealed that the oviposition response by the butterfly to another host plant, Pastinaca sativa (wild parsnip), was evoked by a combination of tyramine (1), trans-chlorogenic acid, and a neutral fraction from the plant.4...

Parsnip Oil Pastinaca sativa) Yes, parsnips. A root vegetable. But first a little story. 

Root uptake has been proven to be an important pathway for contaminants with intermediate octanol-water partitioning coefficients (Aiow)- Variable uptake of an organic compound by different plants has been observed. Plant species such as Daucus carota (carrot) and Pastinaca sativa (parsnip) with swollen storage roots did not translocate chemicals as well as expected from barley experiments. While the lipid content was considered a factor, plant structure, root types, and other properties may all play a role. The effect of the chemical itself was best illustrated by the increasing root concentration factor (RCF) and the bell-shaped transpiration stream concentration factors (TSCF) relative to logAiow- The physiochemical properties of compounds, including the Ko, solubility, and...

In a genetically based series of experiments, seed production of the tall morning glory, Ipomoea purpurea, was used as a measure of fimess. No observable reduction in fitness was observed in the presence of the herbivore sweet potato flea beetle, Chaetocnema confinis (Siimns and Rausher, 1987). On the other hand, the magnitude of cost of production of furocoumarins in the wild parsnip, Pastinaca sativa, in terms of umbel production, is significant (Berenbaum et al., 1986).

In addition to the occurrence in carrots, polyacetylenes were also found in numerous other plant species from the Apiaceae family. Recently, parsnip Pastinaca sativa), celeriac Apium graveolens var. rapaceum), and parsley Petroselinum crispum) have been investigated aiming to show the distribution of the individual polyacetylene substances in the roots [22]. The Raman spectra obtained from various areas of the parsnip roots showed distinct signals in the region of 2270-2180 cm , and it was found that the spectral profiles and band positions depend significantly on the localization within the root.
