Bioassays against pinewood nematode: assessment of a suitable dilution agent an...
Barbosa, P.; Faria, J.M.S.; Mendes, M.D.; Dias, L.S.; Tinoco, M.T.; Barroso, J.G.; Pedro, L.G.; Figueiredo, A.C.; Mota, M.Acetone was investigated and found to be an appropriate alternative to Triton X-100 as a solvent of essential oils in bioassays aimed to investigate their effects on pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) mortality. Therefore it was used as dilution agent to screen the effectiveness of fifty two essential oils against this pest. Thirteen essential oils were highly effective, resulting in more than 90% p...
Nematicidal activity of essential oils and volatiles derived from Portuguese ar...
Barbosa, P.; Lima, A.S.; Vieira, P.; Dias, L.S.; Tinoco, M.T.; Barroso, J.G.; Pedro, L.G.; Figueiredo, A.C.; Mota, M.Twenty seven essential oils, isolated from plants representing 11 families of Portuguese flora, were screened for their nematicidal activity against the pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. The essential oils were isolated by hydrodistillation and the volatiles by distillation-extraction, and both were analysed by GC and GC-MS. High nematicidal activity was achieved with essential oils from Cham...
Essential oils of flowers of Citrus sinensis and Citrus clementina cultivated i...
Miguel, Maria Graça; Dandlen, S.; Figueiredo, A. C.; Barroso, J. G.; Pedro, L. G.; Duarte, Amílcar; Faísca, J.The essential oils, isolated by hydrodistillation, from the flowers of different cultivars of Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck (Cs) and Citrus clementina Hort. Ex Tan. (Cc) collected at different harvesting times, were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. All the samples studied afforded yellowish oil which yields ranged from 0.05 to 0.08 % (v/w). The monoterpene fraction dominated both oils (66-91%), being the monoterpene hyd...
Levisticum officinale hairy root cultures: influence of light and light type on...
Lima, A. Sofia; Sousa, Maria João; Pedro, L.G.; Figueiredo, A. Cristina; Barroso, J.G.; Deans, S.G.; Scheffer, J.J.C.The essential oils of Levisticum officinale W.D.J. Koch (Apiaceae), including those isolated from the roots, are used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food industries [1]. This perennial and herbaceous plant, commonly known as lovage, is widely known by its aromatic, ornamental and medicinal properties. The effect of light and light type on growth and essential oil production of lovage hairy root cultures wa...
Chemical polymorphism of the essential oils from populations of Thymus caespiti...
Pereira, S. I.; Santos, P. A. G.; Barroso, J. G.; Figueiredo, A. C.; Pedro, L. G.; Salgueiro, L. R.; Deans, S. G.; Scheffer, J. J. C.The compositions of the essential oils isolated from the aerial parts of 11 populations of Thymus caespititius collected during the flowering phase on Pico, Faial and Graciosa (Azores) were studied by GC and GC-MS. The monoterpene fraction was dominant in all the oils analysed (55-90%) and consisted mainly of oxygen-containing compounds (44-79%). Sesquiterpenes represented an important fraction of the oils from...

Pereira, S. I.; Santos, P. A. G.; Barroso, J. G.; Figueiredo, A. C.; Pedro, L. G.; Salgueiro, L. R.; Deans, S. G.; Scheffer, J. J. C.The compositions of the essential oils obtained from ten populations of Thymus caespititius grown on S. Jorge (Azores) were studied by GC and GC-MS. All the oils analysed were dominated by their monoterpene fraction (69-91%). The sesquiterpene fraction was rather small (4-17%) and consisted mainly of oxygen-containing compounds (3-13%). Enantiomeric ratio of sabinene and [alpha]-terpineol was investigated in th...
