Tree invasions have substantial impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, and trees that are dispersed by animals are more likely to become invasive. In addition, hybridisation between plants is well documented as a source of new weeds, as hybrids gain new characteristics that allow them to become invasive. Corymbia torelliana is an invasive tree with an unusual animal dispersal mechan...

Title: Bioactivity of essential oils extracted from Cupressus macrocarpa branchlets and Corymbia citriodora leaves grown in Egypt Authors: Mohamed Salem ([email protected]) Hosam Elansary ([email protected]) Hayssam Ali ([email protected]) Ahmed El-Settawy ([email protected]) Mohamed Elshikh ([email protected]) Eslam Abdel-Salam ([email protected]) Krystyna Sk...

The essential oils (EOs) of the aerial parts of Lippia origanoides (LiOr), collected in different localities of the Amazon region, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC and CG-MS. Principle component analysis (PCA) based on chemical composition grouped the oils in four chemotypes rich in mono- and sesquiterpenoids. Group I was characterized by 1,8-cineole and α-terpineol (LiOr-1...

The cross-species transferability of 20 microsatellite markers was tested in the genus Lippia. Eleven markers were polymorphic after screening 19 accessions of Lippia sidoides and Lippia gracilis maintained in the Active Germplasm Bank (AGB) from Universidade Federal de Sergipe. Additionally, 40 accessions of Lippia spp were collected in Sergipe to increase the germplasm bank. A total of 23, 22...

Lippia dulcis is a sweet-tasting, woody herb but the sweetness is often mixed with a camphorous taste. Lippia dulcis oil from Brazil was found to be low in camphor (trace), whereas the oil from Mexico had considerable camphor (33.9%). The Lippia oil from Brazil was high in 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one (10.5%), α-copaene (8.6%), (E)-caryophyllene (10.6%), bicyclogermacrene (6.6%), δ-cadinene (7.2%), ...

Lippia microphylla Cham. (Verbenaceae) is an endemic underexploited Brazilian vegetal. This work reviewed the biological potentialities of Lippia microphylla, emphasizing the properties of essential oils (EOs) and analyzed scientific indicators about genus Lippia and L. microphylla. Databases from 1948 to the present were searched and a software (vantage point 7.1) associated with Derwent Innov...
