Chemical Composition and Biological Activity of Essential Oil Extracted from the Aerial Part of Elsholtzia fruticosa against Ditylenchus destructor

Chemical Composition and Phytotoxic Activity of Artemisia selengensis Turcz. Volatiles

“…Eucalyptol, also known as 1,8‐cineole, is a major component of many plant volatiles, such as Serphidium kaschgaricum (38.68 %), Elsholtzia fruticosa (40.10 %), and Eucalyptus saligna (29.01–32.51 %); [40,49,50] it is also a major constituent of many Artemisia plants, such as A. verlotiorum (21.00 %), A. argyi (22.03 %), and A. austriaca (10.75 %) [17,51,52] . Eucalyptol (1,8‐cineole) is one of the most effective monoterpenes in plant EOs [27] .…”

“…In conclusion, the phytotoxic activity of the main component, eucalyptol, was significantly lower than that of the A. selengensis EO; however, it was difficult to confirm the existence of synergistic effects because some of the other abundant constituents were not commercially available thus their activity was not measured. Eucalyptol, also known as 1,8-cineole, is a major component of many plant volatiles, such as Serphidium kaschgaricum (38.68 %), Elsholtzia fruticosa (40.10 %), and Eucalyptus saligna (29.01-32.51 %); [40,49,50] it is also a major constituent of many Artemisia plants, such as A. verlotiorum (21.00 %), A. argyi (22.03 %), and A. austriaca (10.75 %). [17,51,52] Eucalyptol (1,8-cineole) is one of the most effective monoterpenes in plant EOs.…”

A Review of the Potency of Plant Extracts and Compounds from Key Families as an Alternative to Synthetic Nematicides: History, Efficacy, and Current Developments

“…Additionally, when tested against the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, Barbosa et al (2010) ascertained that EOs of O. vulgare, Satureja montana, T. capitata, and T. caespititius yielded a minimum inhibitory effect at concentrations of 0.097-0.374 mg/ml, with LC 100/24h of 0.858-1.984 mg/ml. Liang et al (2020) also reported that EOs from Elsholtzia fruticose (mainly eucalyptol, γ-terpinene ã-terpinene and limonene) exhibited a strong suppression effect against D. destructor with a EC 50/24h range of 0.16-0.46 mg/ml.…”

“…EOs from this group usually comprise mixtures of terpenes and terpenoids blended with other aliphatic and aromatic ingredients ( Ntalli et al, 2010a ). Isomers of 1,2-epoxymenthyl acetate, L-carvone, piperitone, pulegone, (−)-carvone, trans-anethole, eugenol, borneol, geraniol, limonene, γ-terpinene, o -cymene, carvacrol, 1,8-cineole, α-pinene, camphor, terpinen-4-ol, eucalyptol, ã-terpinene, methyl eugenol, estragole, and thymol are some of the most important EOs isolated from Lamiaceae, and are considered to have strong nematicidal potency ( Andrés et al, 2012 ; Avato et al, 2017 ; Barbosa et al, 2010 ; Li et al, 2013 ; Liang et al, 2020 ; Ntalli et al, 2010a , 2020 ; Oka et al, 2000 ).…”

Composition and biological activity of essential oils from Artemisia roxburghiana Besser and Elsholtzia fruticosa Rehder cultivated in Italy

“…Saini et al (2010) reported the chemical composition of the essential oil extracted from fresh leaves of E. fruticosa by different methods. Recently, Liang et al (2020) reported the chemical composition of essential oil extracted from E. fruticosa and its biological activity against the plant pathogenic nematode Ditylenchus destructor. To the best of our knowledge, no report has been published on the composition of essential oil extracted from cultivated plants thus far, nor on the antibacterial and insecticidal activity of extracts obtained from E. fruticosa.…”
