“…However, variation in essential oil composition was higher in A. foeniculum cultivars compared to A. rugosa cultivars 23 . In the current study, we also demonstrated that different plant organs and species exhibit different levels of phenylpropanoid content, supporting previous reports [21][22][23] . There was wide variation in the phenylpropanoid content (rosmarinic acid, tilianin and acacetin) of the different plant organs from both A. foeniculum and A. foeniculum 'Golden Jubilee.'…”

“…Recently, our research group demonstrated a variable carotenoid content in A. rugosa and A. foeniculum, with considerable variation among organs 21 . In another study, our research group also confirmed that there is variation in the chemical composition of essential oils from the flower and leaf of Korean mint, A. rugosa 22 . Significant variation was recorded in the oil content of the leaves and flowers of different Agastache spp.…”

Agastache rugosa Kuntze is a perennial herb of the mint family (labiatae) that is widely distributed throughout east Asian countries. This plant is a widespread herb that has been used as a wild vegetable and herbal drug in traditional therapies in Korea 1. The leaves of A. rugosa are used in cooking to season fish-based foods and its flowers are a prime source of nectar for honey 2-4. Studies have indicated that A. rugosa has a range of pharmacological activities, including anti-HIV integration activities and antifungal effects 5-6. Extracts of A. rugosa are also believed to be valuable in the treatment of inflammatory and oxidative stress-induced disorders 7-8. Another species in the genus Agastache. Agastache foeniculum (Pursh) Kuntze, is also a perennial herb. This herb originates from the north-central and northern regions of North America and was traditionally used by Native Americans as a medicine to treat coughs, fevers, wounds and diarrhea. The special feature of this herb is its anise-scented leaves, which are used as a seasoning to prepare tea and in potpourri. Moreover, the characteristic purple flower spike attracts bees, which collect the nectar to make a fragrant honey 9,10 .

“…Compared with Korean Mint ( A. rugosa ), there were significant differences for each other. As reported, methyl chavicol was the predominant component in the both leaf (84.25%) and flower (57.94%) of Korean Mint ( A. rugosa ) (Lim et al, 2013). Previous investigations were done on the chemical constituents of essential oil of A. rugosa from northeast China (Yue, 1998), Hubei (Yang et al, 2000) and Hunan (Xiong et al, 2009) of China, the Central Botanical Garden of the NAS of Belarus (Skakovskii et al, 2010).…”

In the study, we evaluated chemical composition and antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and antitumor activities of essential oils from dried leaf essential oil of leaf and flower of Agastache rugosa for the first time. Essential oil of leaf and flower was evaluated with GC and GC-MS methods, and the essential oil of flower revealed the presence of 21 components, whose major compounds were pulegone (34.1%), estragole (29.5%), and p-Menthan-3-one (19.2%). 26 components from essential oil of leaf were identified, the major compounds were p-Menthan-3-one (48.8%) and estragole (20.8%). At the same time, essential oil of leaf, there is a very effective antimicrobial activity with MIC ranging from 9.4 to 42 μg ml(-1) and potential antibiofilm, antitumor activities for essential oils of flower and leaf essential oil of leaf. The study highlighted the diversity in two different parts of A. rugosa grown in Xinjiang region and other places, which have different active constituents. Our results showed that this native plant may be a good candidate for further biological and pharmacological investigations.

The discovery of a new species exhibiting more effective antibacterial properties is necessary because of the demand on Lavandula species, which continues to increase in a variety of industries. Lavandula pubescens might be a good alternative, as it exhibits strong antibacterial activity. In this study, the chemical composition of the essential oils from different organs (flowers, leaves, stems, and roots) of L. pubescens was identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the antimicrobial activities of different solvent extracts (methanol, ethanol, diethyl ether, hexane, and ethyl acetate) and different organ (flower, leaf, stem, and root) extracts of L. pubescens were evaluated. Only the ethyl acetate extracts of L. pubescens exhibited antibacterial activity against all bacterial strains tested, including Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Escherichia coli (KF 918342), Aeromonas hydrophila (KCTC 12487), E. coli (ATCC 35150), Cronobacter sakazakii (ATCC 29544), and Aeromonas salmonicida (KACC 15136). In particular, the extracts exhibited significant activity against S. haemolyticus. Ethyl acetate extract of the leaf exhibited the best activity against all bacterial strains. This study provides valuable information on the chemical compositions in essential oils and antimicrobial properties of L. pubescens.
