The composition and amount of hydrophilic and lipophilic extractives in
knots and stemwood of eight Turkish and one Pakistani tree species were
analysed. Lignans were the main polyphenols in most studied species and
pinosylvins in the pines. The two studied juniper species contained no
or only little lignans. Most species also contained juvabiones or
phenolic diterpenoids. Both polyphenols and lipophilic extractives were
more abundant in the knots than in the sternwood.
