Actinorhizal plant
Actinorhizal plants are a group of angiosperms characterized by their ability to form a symbiosis with the nitrogen fixing actinomycetota Frankia.
See Flavan and Actinorhizal plant
Benzopyran
Benzopyran is a polycyclic organic compound that results from the fusion of a benzene ring to a heterocyclic pyran ring.
Casuarina glauca
Casuarina glauca, commonly known as swamp she-oak, swamp buloke, swamp she-oak, marsh sheoak, grey she-oak, grey she-oak, native pine, or guman by the Gadigal people, is a species of flowering plant that is endemic to eastern Australia.
See Flavan and Casuarina glauca
Chocolate liquor
Chocolate liquor, also called cocoa liquor, is pure cocoa in liquid or semi-solid form.
See Flavan and Chocolate liquor
Flavan-3-ol
Flavan-3-ols (sometimes referred to as flavanols) are a subgroup of flavonoids.
Flavan-4-ol
The flavan-4-ols (3-deoxyflavonoids) are flavone-derived alcohols and a family of flavonoids.
Frankia
Frankia is a genus of nitrogen-fixing bacteria that live in symbiosis with actinorhizal plants, similar to the Rhizobium bacteria found in the root nodules of legumes in the family Fabaceae.
Leucoanthocyanidin
Leucoanthocyanidin (flavan-3,4-diols) are colorless chemical compounds related to anthocyanidins and anthocyanins.
