Rapid Isolation of DNA from Dry and Fresh Samples of Plants Producing Large Amounts of Secondary Metabolites and Essential Oils

TL;DR: The essential steps of a rapid DNA isolation protocol that can be used for diverse medicinal and aromatic plants, which produce essential oils and secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, flavanoids, phenols, gummy polysaccharides, terpenes and quinones are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insecticidal, repellent and oviposition-deterrent activity of selected essential oils against Anopheles stephensi, Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus.

TL;DR: The essential oils of Juniperus macropoda and Pimpinella anisum were highly effective as both larvicidal and ovicidal, and Zingiber officinale and Rosmarinus officinalis were found to be ovicidal and repellent, respectively towards the three mosquito species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antimicrobial activity profiles of the two enantiomers of limonene and carvone isolated from the oils of Mentha spicata and Anethum sowa

TL;DR: The antimicrobial activity of the essential oils of Mentha spicata L. and Anethum sowa Roxb were studied in this paper, where the major chemical constituents of the hydrodistilled essential oils and their major isolates from cultivated M. sica and A. sowa were identified by IR, 1H- and 13C-NMR and GC: (S)-(−)-limonene (27.3%), and (R)-(+)-carvone (56.6%) (representing 83.9% of the spearmint
Journal ArticleDOI

Repellency and toxicity of oil from Artemisia annua to certain stored-product beetles.

TL;DR: It was found that oil from A. annua was largely responsible for both repellent (behavioral) and toxic (physiological) actions on 2 species of insect tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Organic Manures and Inorganic Fertilizer on Growth, Herb and Oil Yield, Nutrient Accumulation, and Oil Quality of French Basil

TL;DR: Sudha et al. as discussed by the authors conducted a field trial with six different combinations of organic manure (FYM and Vermicompost) and inorganic fertilizers [nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium (NPK)] to study their effect on yield and oil quality in basil (Ocimum basilicum L. cv.
