“…Although Asteriscus is not a very large genus, few studies have been published related to it [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. The study of the molecular systematic of some Macaronesian species exposed that Asteriscus is paraphyletic [5].…”

“…However, most of the studies have been focused only on one species, A. graveolens (Forssk.) Less., describing their flavonoids [7], new derivatives [8,9] and essential oil activities [10][11][12]. The essential oil of this species was characterized by a high content of 6-oxocyclonerolidol (66.7%) and 6-hydroxycyclonerolidol (8.8%) which exhibited fungicidal properties towards Alternaria sp.…”

“…[10]. Other report suggests that these compounds could be considered as chemical markers of this genus that characterize the stem and leaf oil, while cis-8-acetoxychrysanthenyl acetate, which has been isolated for the first time, was the major compound of the flower oil [11]. The last paper related to this species agreed with the previous ones, being 6-oxocyclonerolidol (74.9%) and 6-hydroxycyclonerolidol (11.8%) as the major components.…”

The essential oil composition of different aerial parts (stems+leaves and flowers) of Asteriscus maritimus has been analysed by gas chromatography which was coupled with mass spectrometry. A total of 43 compounds have been identified from the different fractions studied, representing more than the 90% of the total oil for each one. Both aerial parts shared most of the main compounds although quantitative differences have been detected. The oils extracted from the stems and leaves showed α-pinene (27.5%) and p-cymene (10.0%) as major components. In the flower oils these compounds were also representative, α-pinene (9.0%) and p-cymene (7.3%), although the main ones were β-phellandrene (11.8%), fonenol (10.9%) and α-phellandrene (10.0%). These compounds were representatively found in the other fraction: β-phellandrene (8.38%), α-phellandrene (7.28%) and fonenol (5.6%). The monoterpene fraction was predominant in the stems and leaves oil (54.6%) while the sesquiterpene fraction was the largest one in the flowers oil (55.3%).

In recent years, antimicrobial activities of essential oils have been intensively explored, mainly in researching and developing new antimicrobial agents to overcome microbial resistance. The present study investigates the chemical composition and antimicrobial activities of essential oils obtained from two Asteraceae: Asteriscus graveolens (Forssk.) Less. and Pulicaria incisa (Lam.) DC. Chemical analysis was performed using a combination of capillary GC-FID and GC/MS analytical techniques. The major component of Asteriscus graveolens were cis-chrysanthenyl acetate (31.1%), myrtenyl acetate (15.1%), and kessane (11.5%), while for Pulicaria incisa the main components were chrysanthenone (45.3%) and 2,6-dimethylphenol (12.6%). The oils obtained from the aerial parts were tested against sixteen microbial strains by agar well diffusion technique and dilution methods and showed minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) in the range of 19 - 1250 μg/ml. A good antibacterial activity against a common nosocomial pathogen, Acinetobacter baumanniiATCC 19606 was observed, especially from Pulicaria incisa essential oil, with a MIC value up to 19 μg/ml. These results give significant information about the pharmacological activity of these essential oils, which suggest their benefits to human health, having the potential to be used for medical purposes.

Asteriscus graveolens is an aromatic desert shrub which holds medicinal potential. This species belongs to the Asteraceae family and is endemic to the Mediterranean region. In the present study, wild plants were sampled from eleven locations throughout southern Israel and the volatile profiles from leaves and flowers were analyzed using GC/MS. Three methods for volatile sampling were tested for a representative population: solvent extraction (methyl tert-butyl ether), hydrodistillation of the essential oil and headspace solid-phase microextraction. In all methods, the majority of volatiles were characterized as oxygenated mono-and sesquiterpenes. Only solvent extraction was able to detect asteriscunolides that were previously reported as anticancer molecules. Hence, that method was chosen for further analyses. The leaves were dominated by three asteriscunolide isomers, cischrysanthenyl acetate and intermedeol. The flowers were dominated by bisabolone, 6-hydroxybisabol-2-en-1one, cis-chrysanthenyl acetate, epi-α-cadinol, and germacrene-D. k-Means clustering analysis of these data divided the population into four clusters that significantly differ in their volatile composition as was further demonstrated by MANOVA analysis. Geographically, A. graveolens populations growing in Israel were found to be chemically diverse with unique varieties in the Dead Sea basin and the Arava region. This work demonstrates that chemo-geographic variation of volatile composition exists within A. graveolens population growing in Israel, so future research evaluating the medicinal potential of that plant should take this into consideration.
