The relationship between the chemical composition of three essential oils and their insecticidal activity against Acanthoscelides obtectus (Say).

TL;DR: The chemical composition of the essential oils isolated from various parts of three Greek aromatic plants and their main constituents on Acanthoscelides obtectus adults collected at different seasons were determined by GC/MS analysis and an attempt to correlate the insecticidal activity to the monoterpenoid's structure is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synergistic and antagonistic interactions of terpenes against Meloidogyne incognita and the nematicidal activity of essential oils from seven plants indigenous to Greece

TL;DR: This is the first report on the activity of F. vulgare on synergistic/antagonistic nematicidal terpene interactions, against M. incognita, providing alternative methods for nematode control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytochemistry and Nematicidal Activity of the Essential Oils from 8 Greek Lamiaceae Aromatic Plants and 13 Terpene Components

TL;DR: The activity of the nematicidal terpenes was found to decrease in the order l-carvone, pulegone, trans-anethole, geraniol, eugenol, carvacrol, thymol, terpinen-4-ol, and the respective EC(50) values (24 h) were calculated in the range of 115-392 mug/mL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nematicidal activity of mint aqueous extracts against the root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita

TL;DR: The nematicidal activity and chemical characterization of aqueous extracts and essential oils of three mint species, namely, Mentha × piperita , Mentha spicata , and Mentha pulegium, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-specific biodegradation of the organophosphorus pesticides, cadusafos and ethoprophos, by two bacterial isolates

TL;DR: The first report for the isolation and characterization of soil bacteria with the ability to degrade rapidly cadusafos and use it as a carbon source is reported, indicating the potential of this bacterium to be used in the clean-up of contaminated pesticide waste in the environment.
