Abstract
Taxol and cephalomannine concentrations were measured in the bark and foliage of Pacific yew trees growing in the shade of a forest canopy and at a site nearby where trees had been exposed to full sunlight for 6 years. Bark was the only tissue showing concentration differences due to light, with significantly greater quantities of both compounds in the bark of shaded trees than in the bark of sun-exposed trees. In either light regimen taxol concentrations were greater in the bark than in the needles or twigs
