list would be more useful if it were ordered by amounts contained, listing those
plants with the most of the particular chemical first, but it doesn't. As yet there is
no way to get such sorted or ordered lists from the PhytoChemDB, all orderings
are alphabetical.

When you're on their database server, the screen will be grey, not dark green.
