Statistical Unfolding Approach to Understand Influencing Factors for Taxol Content Variation in High Altitude Himalayan Region
Taxol drugs can be extracted from various species of the taxaceae family. It is an alkaloid (metabolic product) used for the treatment of various types of cancer. Since taxol is a metabolic product, multiple aspects such as edaphic, biochemical, topographic factors need to be assessed in determining the variation in Taxol Content (TC). In this study, both sensor-based hyperspectral reflectance data and absorption-based indices were tested together for the development of an advanced statistical unfolding approach to understand the influencing factors for TC in high altitude Himalayan region. Seriation analysis based on permutation matrix was applied with complete linkage and a multi-fragment heuristic scaling rule along with the common techniques such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and correlation to understand the relationship of TC with various factors. This study also tested the newly developed taxol indices to rule out the possibility of overlapping of TC determining bands with the foliar pigment’s wavelengths in the visible region. The result implies that T. wallichiana with a high TC is found more in its natural habitat of deep forest, relating it indirectly to elevation in the case of the montane ecosystem. Taxol is the most varying parameter among the measured variables, followed by hyperspectral Taxol content (TC) indices such as TC 2, TC 5, and carotenoids, which suggests that the indices are well versed to capture variations in TC with elevation.
