THE SYSTEMATIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE COMPLEXITY OF LEAF FLAVONOIDS IN THE BROMELIACEAE 

 -  PhytoChemistry, 17(4), p.729-734, 1978 .
<br/><br/> a leaf survey of 61 species of the Bromeliaceae, an unexpectedly wide spectrum of flavonoid constituents was encountered. The family is unique amongst the monocotyledons in the frequency and variety of flavonoids with extra hydroxylation or methoxylation at the 6-position. More common flavonols (in 43
