<p>This article is focused on the seasonal variation in the contents of 5-methoxycanthin-6-one from the leaves of <i>Zanthoxylum chiloperone</i> (Rutaceae). Based on the pharmacological interest presented by 5-methoxycanthin-6-one, its seasonal variation in <i>Z. chiloperone</i> leaves was analysed in order to determine the best time for harvesting, optimising the 5-methoxycanthin-6-one content. The seasonal dynamics of canthinone alkaloids can be the key to improve the isolation from natural sustainable sources, such as leaves. Complementarily, this study describes the phytochemistry of leaf from this Ruraceae species.</p

Proportion of traps that captured <i>Triatoma infestans</i> and <i>T. sordida</i> after three months (<i>N</i> = 556 traps) and six months (<i>N</i> = 548 traps) of trap operation.
<p>Solid circles are proportions; 95% confidence intervals (between short horizontal lines) were calculated using the Agresti-Coull method <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001822#pntd.0001822-Brown1" target="_blank">[22]</a>. The sharp decline of <i>T. infestans</i> is mirrored by a similar rise of <i>T. sordida</i> captures. Note that the <i>y</i>-axis is in log<sub>10</sub> scale.</p
Dwelling infestation rates after three months of trap operation.
<p>Top-bottom: infestation estimate from a simple logistic regression model taking detection failures into account; infestation index after combined observations from chemically-baited and unbaited sticky traps; infestation index after observations only from chemically-baited sticky traps; infestation index after observations only from unbaited sticky traps; and infestation index after observations only from manual searches by trained staff. Solid circles are point estimates/proportions, and short vertical lines are the 95% confidence interval limits; in the case of observed proportions, these limits were estimated using the Agresti-Coull method <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001822#pntd.0001822-Brown1" target="_blank">[22]</a>.
