family cupressaceae is the largest coniferous plant family. essential oils of many species belonging to family cupressaceae are known to have several biological activities specially antimicrobial activity. the essential oils from aerial parts of calocedrus decurrens torr., cupressus sempervirens stricta l. and tetraclinis articulata (vahl) mast. were prepared by hydrodistillation. the chemical ...

Abstract The Mediterranean cypress ( Cupressus sempervirens ) is an evergreen conifer that belongs to the Cupressaceae, which first plant family whose detailed evolutionary history traces break-up of supercontinent Pangaea roughly 150 million years ago. broad and deep economic socio-cultural significance species began in at least third millennium BCE. This interdisciplinary review highlights tr...

the essential oils of fresh fruits and terminal branches with adherent leaves of cupressus sempervirens l. and c. horizentalis mill., growing in iran, were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. the oils were also screened for bacteriostatic and fungistatic activities. thirteen and ten components were identified in the essential oils of c. sempervirens and c. horizentalis, respective...

The flowers and leaves of Hemerocallis fulva var. sempervirens, Akinowauregusa in Japanese, were eaten to cure insomnia in Okinawa, Japan. We found that H. fulva var. sempervirens contained oxypinnatanine, a unique derivative of glutamic acid or glutamine with a furfuryl group isolated from only a few plants. In this study, we demonstrated by electroencephalographic analyses that an oral admini...

BACKGROUND Cupressus sempervirens is a medicinal plant traditional, its dried leaves are used in treatment of stomach pain, diabetes, inflammation, toothache, laryngitis and as contraceptive. METHODS The present study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial, antibiofilm and determination chemical contents of the essential oil (Eo) and methanol extract from Mediterranean C. semper...

the cypress family, cupressaceae, has a global dispersion. currently, endophytic microorganisms from plants are being investigated for their diversity and bioactivities. here, we aimed at exploration and characterization of cultivable endophytic fungi from foliar tissues of cupressaceae, i.e. cupressus arizonica, c. sempervirens var. cereiformis, c. sempervirens var. fastigiata, juniperus excel...

Five Hesperocyparis (Cupressus) abramsiana groves were analyzed by Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSRs). ISSRs analyses revealed geographical differentiation among the groves (= Silba's subspecies) with the Butano Ridge grove being the most distinct in both ISSRs and terpenoids. Combined ISSR and terpenoid data support the recognition of Hesperocyparis. abramsiana var. abramsiana and Hesperocy...
