The chemical composition of seedlings and adult plants of several Piper species were analyzed by 1H NMR spectroscopy combined with principal component analysis (PCA) and HPLC-DAD, HPLC-HRESIMS and GC-MS data. The chromatographic profile of crude extracts from leaves of Piper species showed remarkabl...
