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 ...

Abnormal' cones found irt Cupressus sempervirens include bisexual cones and double female and male cones. They are very infrequent, but there are individual trees ~th a tendency· to produce· ~\Jch cones. We, suggest that these cones reflect changes in normal hohnonal balance. keY, words: Cupressus sempervirens, bisexilal con~s, cones.

The general objective of this study was to measure the mycorrhizal dependencies of Cupressus and Lavandula species, to assess the contribution of Lavandula species to the mycorrhizal soil infectivity (MSI) and to determine the main effects of the association between a Lavandula species (L. multifida) and Cupressus arizonica on the soil microbial activities, on the growth and the mycorrhizal sta...

A total of 18 stands of Cupressus sempervireus L. (Cupressaceae) were surveyed in the natural Greek range (plus one stand in Turkey) during 1994-1996 in order to identify the pests of seed cones and assess their impact on seed survival. Naturalised stands of mainland Greece, Albania and Malta were sampled for comparison. The cone entomofauna (seven insect and one mite species) did not differ be...

The heartwoods of tree species containing tropolone compounds in their extractive components are classed among the more durable woods. Two new tropolones, namely, alpha-thujaplicinol and pygmaein from the heartwood of Cupressus pygmaea, were also found to exhibit strong fungitoxic properties active against a number of wood-destroying fungi. The hydroxyl group appears to be the functional groupi...

This study aimed to evaluate in-vitro antioxidant activities of hydroethanolic extract of leaves of Cynara scolymus L., Cupressus sempervirens L., and Eugenia jambolana Lam comparing with ascorbic acid, and their correlation with in-vivo hepatoprotective activity in rat model of paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity, comparing with silymarin as reference agents. In-vitro study revealed that the te...
