Essential oils of Lippia gracilis and Lippia sidoides chemotypes and their majo...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the antifungal activity of essential oils (EOs) of Lippia gracilis and Lippia sidoides accessions, their major compounds and nanoemulsions. Nanoemulsions with 18% of EO or major compound were produced by spontaneous emulsification method. The EO of two L. gracilis accessions (LGRA-106 and LGRA-109) and two L. sidoides accessions (LSID-102 and LSID-104) were extracted by hydr...

Effects of acaricidal essential oils from Lippia sidoides and Lippia gracilis a...

Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:44:55Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-11-01; Rhipicephalus microplus is an important cattle tick, and resistant strains to synthetic compounds have been widespread. The combined effects of different essential oil compounds enhance biological activity and reduce selection for the development of target organism resistance. Essential oils of two diff...

Low diversity in the native populations of Croton tetradenius Baill. when using...

Essential oils of Eplingiella fruticosa populations: chemical, antioxidant, and...

This study investigates the variations in the chemical profiles and biological activities (antioxidant and cytotoxic) of Eplingiella fruticosa from the state of Sergipe, an endemic species from the Northeast region of Brazil. The essential oils were extracted from six populations by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC/MS-FID. Cluster analysis was performed with the data of the constituents of the essential oil...

Toxicity of the essential oil of basil cultivars and hybrids and its repellent ...

Essential oils have emerged as an alternative to synthetic insecticides in the control of stored grain pests. The toxicity and repellency of the essential oils of four basil cultivars and three basil hybrids and the monoterpenes linalool, citral, and (E)-methyl cinnamate were evaluated in the stored grain pests Callosobruchus maculatus and Sitophillus zeamais. The essential oils of the cultivar Genovese and the...

Morpho-agronomic characterization of Varronia curassavica germplasm conservated...

Varronia curassavica Jacq. is a medicinal and aromatic plant native to Brazil. The essential oil of this species is valued by the pharmaceutical industry due to its bioactive substances containing anti-inflammatory properties. This study aimed to morpho-agronomically characterize 27 accessions of the collection of V. curassavica of the Active Germplasm Bank of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of the Federal Univer...

Antifungal activity of essential oils of Myrcia ovata chemotypes and their majo...

This work evaluated the antifungal activity of essential oils of Myrcia ovata chemotypes (MYRO-175, MYRO-156, MYRO-154, MYRO-165, and MYRO-015) and their major compounds (linalool, geraniol, citral, and (E)-nerolidol) on the phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium pallidoroseum (which causes melon postharvest rot) and Colletotrichum musae (which causes anthracnose in banana). The essential oils were obtained by hydrodis...

A comparative study of the antifungal activity of essential oils of Varronia cu...

This work aimed to compare the antifungal activity of the essential oil of Varronia curassavica obtained by hydrodistillation and microwave against the fungus Colletotrichum musae and verify the alterations caused by these extraction methods on the leaf surface. This study used four essential oil samples obtained by different methods, two by hydrodistillation [HD1 (1.0 L of water and 100 min.) and HD2 (2.0 L of...

Influence of storage temperatures and storage time of dry leaves on patchouli [...

Patchouli [Pogostemon cablin (Blanco) Benth.] is a plant of the family Lamiaceae, widely used as an essential oil in the cosmetics and perfumery industry. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of storage time and temperature of dry leaves on the patchouli essential oil content and chemical composition. The experiment was performed in a completely randomized design in a 6x2x2 factorial scheme, testing stora...

Morphoagronomic characterization of Lantana camara L. germplasm

The medicinal and aromatic species Lantana camara is a bush that receives a lot of interest regarding ornamental use. However, due to its condition of invasive plant in natural environments, it suffers constant eradication attempts, which causes genetic erosion of the species. To work around this problem, a sample of the genetic variability of L. camara was saved in the Active Germplasm Bank of medicinal and ar...
