Virus Diseases of Geranium
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Several diseases of geraniums (Pelargonium species) are caused by viruses. The economic losses caused by these diseases are difficult to assess since infected plants are often symptomless and because both the cultivar and the environment in which the plants are growing can greatly influence the severity of the symptoms. The problem is compounded by the diverse sources of stock plants and the fact that most geranium cultivars, especially those that are fieldgrown, are virus-infected.

Effect of a plant polyphenol-rich extract on the lung protease activities of influenza-virus-infected mice.
Influenza infection was induced in white mice by intranasal inoculation of the virus A/Aichi/2/68 (H3N2). The lung protease and the protease-inhibitory activities were followed for 9 days after infection. The intranasal application of a polyphenol-rich extract (PC) isolated from Geranium sanguineum L. induced a continuous rise in the anti-protease activity but did not cause substantial changes ...
متن کاملSuppression of Carrageenan- and Collagen II-Induced Inflammation in Mice by Geranium Oil
To obtain experimental evidence on the therapeutic efficacy of essential oils in aromatherapy for inflammatory diseases, we examined the effects of geranium oil on carrageenan-induced and collagen II-induced inflammation in mice, to assess acute and chronic anti-inflammatory activities of the oil. Single intraperitoneal injection of 5 mu L of geranium oil clearly suppressed the carrageenan-indu...
متن کاملRare excitatory amino acid from flowers of zonal geranium responsible for paralyzing the Japanese beetle.
The Japanese beetle (JB), Popillia japonica, exhibits rapid paralysis after consuming flower petals of zonal geranium, Pelargonium x hortorum. Activity-guided fractionations were conducted with polar flower petal extracts from P. x hortorum cv. Nittany Lion Red, which led to the isolation of a paralysis-inducing compound. High-resolution-MS and NMR ((1)H, (13)C, COSY, heteronuclear sequential q...
متن کاملAnti-hepatitis B virus activities of Geranium carolinianum L. extracts and identification of the active components.
The ethanol extract of Geranium carolinianum L., a domestic plant grown in China, was subjected to sequential extractions with different organic solvents. The extracts were assayed for anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) activities. The ethyl acetate fraction was found to contain the highest level of anti-HBV activity. In order to identify the active ingredients, the ethyl acetate fraction was further...

The combined virus-inhibitory effects of a proteinaceous protease inhibitor, produced by Streptomyces sp. 225b (BF), rimantadine hydrochloride (Rim), ε-aminocaproic acid (ACA) and a polyphenol extract from Geranium sanguineum L. (PC) have been investigated on the reproduction of influenza virus A/Germany/34, strain Rostock (H7N1) in MDCK cell cultures. The simultaneous application of BF and PC,...
