Interest in myrtle (Myrtus communis L.) by food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutic industries generated the integration of biomasses harvested from wild populations as raw materials with yields cultivated orchards. The domestication process is reviewed considering shoot, fruit, leaf biometric characters selections obtained three steps program. first step started Sardinia (Italy) 1995 analysis germpla...

this experiment was conducted to determine the effects of myrtle essential oil (meo) on growth performance, carcass characteristics, antibody titer and blood parameters of broiler chickens. a total of 200 ross 308 broiler chickens were allocated to five dietary treatments with four replicates of 10 birds each. dietary treatments were prepared by formulating a corn-soybean meal-based diet free o...

Background & Aim: Myrtle (Myrtus communis L.), is an important medicinal plant that is used for pharmacological uses and conservation of environments (for example preventing the soil erosion) regards to its specific condition habitat.

Austropuccinia psidii, the fungus causing myrtle rust, was detected in Western Australia for first time June 2022. Few Australian plant species have been screened response to pathogen. Melaleuca thyoides, marginata and leucadendra grown from seeds sourced populations were all highly susceptible an isolate of pathogen eastern Australia.

The present study describes DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity and antimutagenic properties of the essential oil of myrtle (Myrtus communis L.). Plant samples were collected from the two distant localities (southernmost and northern point) of the Montenegro coastline. Chemical profiles of the two samples were evaluated by GC-MS. In both of the samples monoterpenes ...
