Considering the interest in natural products for cosmetic, perfumery, food and pharmacological industry, the deeper knowledge of the potentiality of different aromatic plants can give results of economic importance. In our work, the essential oils of fourteen species were evaluated for their quali- quantitative composition and biological activity. The species analysed are: basil (Ocimum basilicum L.), beebalm (Monarda didyma L.), pennyroyal (Mentha pulegium L.), spearmint (Mentha spicata L.), headed savory (Thymus capitatus Hoffm.et Link), calamint (Calamintha nepeta L.), winter savory (Satureja montana L.), savory (Satureja cuneifolia Ten.), thymbra (Thymbra sintenisii Bornm. et Aznav. ssp. isaurica P.H. Davis), a cultivated rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L) and four wild rosemaries harvested in different Italian locations: Elba Island (Tuscany), Sicily, Abruzzo and Calabria. The oils, obtained by steam-distillation of fresh aerial part of the plants harvested at full flowering stage, were characterized by GC-MS, tested for antimicrobial property by determining the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and for the antioxidant activity by B-carotene bleaching test. Each species was characterized by a peculiar qualiquantitative composition and all the oils contained compounds with established biological activity. Headed savory exerted the highest antimicrobial control also at low concentrations. Basil and rosemary from Elba Island evidenced a great antioxidant capability comparable to that of α-tocopherol used as reference antioxidant agent.10aAntimicrobial Activity10aAntioxidant activity10aGC-MS1 aStefanini, I1 aPiccaglia, R1 aMarotti, M1 aBiavati, B  uhttp://www.scopus.com/scopus/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-33846036924&partnerID=40&rel=R6.5.000731nas a2200157   4500008004100000245022400041210006900265260001200334300001200346100001600358700001600374700001900390700001500409700001800424856013100442       2006                        eng d00aBotanical Aspect, Germoplasm and Genetic Improvement - Genetic Diversity in Three Natural Tunisian Lamiaceae: Rosmarinus Officinalis L., Lavandula Multifida L. and Thymus Algeriensis L. and Implications for Conservation0 aBotanical Aspect Germoplasm and Genetic Improvement Genetic Dive  c2006///  a69 - 691 aBoussaid, M1 aChograni, H1 aAli, Bel, Hadj1 aZaouali, Y1 aBen Fadhel, N  uhttps://thymus.myspecies.info/ref/botanical-aspect-germoplasm-and-genetic-improvement-genetic-diversity-three-natural-tunisian02154nas a2200229   4500008004100000245016900041210006900210260016600279300001200445490000800457520120500465653002101670653001201691653001401703653002501717100001801742700001601760700001801776700001501794700001701809856009801826       2006                        eng d00aGenetic diversity in three natural Tunisian Lamiaceae: Rosmarinus officinalis L., Lavandula multifida L. and Thymus algeriensis L. and implications for conservation0 aGenetic diversity in three natural Tunisian Lamiaceae Rosmarinus  aAffiliation: Department of Biology Laboratory of Plant Biotechnology, National Institute of Applied Science and Technology (INSAT), Tunis Cedex, Tunisiac2006///  a69 - 770 v7233 aGenetic diversity and population structure of three Tunisian Lamiaceae species Rosmarinus officinalis L., Lavandula multifida L. and Thymus algeriensis L. were assessed using allozyme electrophoresis. Populations for each species were collected from different bioclimatically zones. A high genetic variation within the populations of each species was revealed. The genotypic richness of populations before their fragmentation and the high rate of outcrossing were the main contributing factors in this high variation. Differentiation among populations was substantial for each species. Only Rosmarinus officinalis showed a significant relationship between population structure and geographic distance. Differentiation between contiguous bioclimates was less important than that recorded between discontinuous ones. Intraspecific populations genetic similarity was high. The low genetic divergence between populations and their substantial structure indicate their recent fragmentation under anthropic pressures. Implications of genetic and population structure for the development of in situ and ex situ conservation strategies are discussed. Conclusions could be applied for other lamiaceae species.10aEcological group10aIsozyme10aLamiaceae10aPopulation structure1 aBoussaïd, M1 aChograni, H1 aBelHadjAli, I1 aZaouali, Y1 aBenFadhel, N  uhttp://www.scopus.com/scopus/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-33846111218&partnerID=40&rel=R6.5.001234nas a2200181   4500008004100000245004900041210004900090260010600139300001400245490000800259520060900267653001800876653001400894653001100908100002000919700001500939856009800954       2006                        eng d00aEssential oils of Lamiaceae plants of Turkey0 aEssential oils of Lamiaceae plants of Turkey  aAffiliation: Anadolu University Faculty of Pharmacy, Department of Pharmacognosy, Eskişehir, Turkey  a163 - 1710 v7233 a<p>The family Lamiaceae (Labiatae) is represented in Turkey by 46 genera and 571 species of which 44.2% are endemic, with subspecies, varieties and hybrids altogether 763 taxa exists in the flora of Turkey.

The study of the physiological role of natural products in biochemical interactions among plants can supply new active compounds and/or models for new mechanisms of action. Volatile terpenes and essential oils have been reported as regulators of germination and growth of other species in several ecosystem. In this study we have carried out a chemical and biological evaluation of the essential oils from eight Mediterranean Labiatae in order to characterize their composition and to verify their potential activities in vitro on growth and development of three test seeds. The essential oils were obtained by hydrodistillation from Hyssopus officinalis L., Lavandula angustifolia Miller, Majorana hortensis L., Melissa officinalis L., Ocimum basilicum L., Origanum vulgare L., Salvia officinalis L., and Thymus vulgaris L. and their chemical composition was achieved by GC and GC/MS methods. The essential oils have been assayed against the germination and the successive radical growth of Raphanus sativus L., Lactuca sativa L. and Lepidium sativum L. The assayed essential oils have shown a good inhibitory avctivity in a dose-dependent way, both on germination and radical elongation of three test species. Our study has shown a positive correlation between the total monoterpene content in the essential oils and the inhibitory activity.10aAllelopathy10aAntigerminative activity10aMonoterpenes10aNatural herbicides10aVolatile compounds1 aArminante, F1 aDeFalco, E1 aDeFeo, V1 aDeMartino, L1 aMancini, E1 aQuaranta, E  uhttp://www.scopus.com/scopus/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-33846041723&partnerID=40&rel=R6.5.0
