Evolutionary ecology of secondary compounds in ripe fruit: Case studies with capsaicin and emodin.

There is some evidence that secondary compounds in nectar only affect nectar robbers and not the pollinators.

It has been the subject of investigation as the source of antibiotics, as well as other potentially useful secondary compounds.

Instruct all personnel to withdraw to the secondary compound.

Lichens are often thoroughly washed, boiled, or soaked in ash water to help remove secondary compounds.

Brassica species contain glucosinolates, which are sulfur-containing secondary compounds.

There is a wide range of toxins and secondary compounds within oleander, and care should be taken around this plant due to its toxic nature.

In a narrower sense the terms are often used to describe the large number of secondary metabolic compounds found in plants.

The chemistry involved here is scarcely different from 'normal', when compared with the elaboration of 'secondary' compounds in defence.

Some of these secondary compounds include:
