Abstract
"To every thing there is a season” (Ecclesiastes, 3), and interest in plant natural products is certainly undergoing a renaissance at the present time. This is particularly true in the case of the natural products of the Leguminosae, which have long been studied as important taxonomic markers forKeywords
