Diterpenes from Salvia broussonetii transformed roots and their insecticidal activity.

TL;DR: The new diterpenes brussonol and iguestol with an icetexane and a dehydroabietane skeleton, respectively, have been isolated from hairy root cultures of Salvia broussonetii and investigated against the insect pests Spodoptera littoralis and Leptinotarsa decemlineata.
Journal ArticleDOI

Triterpene-based plant defenses

TL;DR: The insecticidal activity of pentacyclic triterpenes of plant origin from different chemical classes on several insect pests, their phytotoxic properties and their selective cytotoxic effects on insect-derived Sf9 and mammalian CHO cells are described.
Book ChapterDOI

Natural Product-Based Biopesticides for Insect Control

TL;DR: New technologies have significantly improved the speed with which natural products can be discovered and evaluated for biological activities, and combinatorial chemistry combined with chemical diversity theory and high throughput screening allows for swifter production and testing of synthetic compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Major components of Spanish cultivated Artemisia absinthium populations: Antifeedant, antiparasitic, and antioxidant effects

TL;DR: The insect antifeedant properties of plant extracts from different years and crops were tested against Spodoptera littoralis, Myzus persicae and Rhopalosiphum padi and their antioxidant, phytotoxic and antiparasitic effects were studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytochemistry and chemotaxonomy of Sideritis species from the Mediterranean region.

TL;DR: The phytochemical content of the Mediterranean species of the Sideritis genus has been reviewed and the relations of these Mediterranean species with those of the Macaronesian region have been examined.
