RESUMO

In our continued studies on the genus Solanum for detecting a good source of soladodine, the steroid alkaloid potentially important for the manufacture of steroid hormones, as well as other compounds of potential therapeutic value, we investigated the fruits of Solanum crinitum, S. rhytidoandrum, and S. jabrense belonging to the subgenus Leptostemonum and S. stipulaceum, belonging to the subgenus Brevantherum, allof which are native of the northeastern region of Brazil and yielded solasodine in moderate to high yield.
