Resumo:

The alkaloid content of Senecio madagascariensis collected from Australia and Hawaii was examined. Alkaloids were identified from the above ground whole plant (stems, leaves and flowers) by GUMS analysis and included: senecivernine, senecionine, integerrimine, senkirkine, mucronatinine, retrosine, usaramine, otosenine, acetylsenkirkine, desacetyldoronine, florosenine and doronine. Plant material collected from the Hawaiian Islands was found to be identical in pyrrolizidine alkaloid content to that from a single composite collection made from northern New South Wales, Australia. Overall, no appreciable differences in alkaloid content were found between locations, whereas variation among individual plants was evident. The average total pyrrolizidine alkaloid content varied from a low of 217 mu g/g to a high of 1990 mu g/g (dry weight basis) among the locations. Based on comparable alkaloid content and documented pyrrolizidine alkaloidosis cases from Australia, S. madagascariensis may pose a significant risk to livestock grazing heavily infested ranges on the Hawaiian Islands.
