DC. in copper mining tailing area, in the Southern part of Brazil. The plants were selected considering their spontaneous growth in tailing area. The phytoremediation indexes including translocation factor (TF), bioconcentration factor (BCF), metal extraction ratio (MER), and plant effective number (PEN) were assessed. Both species showed higher concentrations of heavy metals in the roots than to the shoots. B. trimera has potential for phytoextraction of Zn, Cd, Cr, and Pb and phytostabilization of Ba and Ni, whereas B. dracunculifolia demonstrated potential for phytoextraction of Pb and phytostabilization of Cu, Zn, and Ba. B. trimera showed higher potential in phytoremediation of the metals such as Cu > Zn > Cr > Ni and Cd than the B. dracunculifolia plants. A smaller number B. trimera plants was required to remove 1 g of Cu, Zn, Cr, Pb, Ni, and Cd than B. dracunculifolia plants, and implies that B. trimera is more efficient for decontamination of the metals. Both species showed potential for phytoremediation of metals in the mining tailing area under study.The obligate pollination mutualism between Yucca and yucca moths is a classical example of coevolution. Oviposition and active pollination by female yucca moths occur at night when Yucca flowers are open and strongly scented. Thus, floral volatiles have been suggested as key sensory signals attracting yucca moths to their host plants, but no bioactive compounds have yet been identified. In this study, we showed that both sexes of the pollinator moth Tegeticula yuccasella are attracted to the floral scent of the host Yucca filamentosa. Chemical analysis of the floral headspace from six Yucca species in sections Chaenocarpa and Sarcocarpa revealed a set of novel tetranorsesquiterpenoids putatively derived from (
