ABSTRACT

Abstract Medicinal and aromatic plants have been widely using in folk medicine as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive agents. The aim of this study was to determine essential oil composition and antimicrobial activity of T. spicata, L. X Intermedia, S. macrantha and R. officinalis. Essential oil components of these plants were obtained by water vapor distillation method using Neo-Clevenger apparatus. Essential oil components were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). The main components of these plants are carvacrol (74.26 %) and γ-terpinene (10.28%) in T. spicata, 1,8-cineol (32.48%), linalool (24.38%) and camphor (14.73%) in L. X Intermedia, p-cymene (56.70%), carvacrol (10.96 %) in S. macrantha and camphor (18.26 %), α-pinene (15.51%), 1,8-cineole (11.86%) and borneol (10.39%) in R. officinalis were determined. T. spicata and S. macrantha showed strong effects against three microorganisms. L. X Intermedia and R. officinalis showed strong activity against Candida albicans, while they had moderate effects against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli.

ABSTRACT

This work aimed to evaluate the in vitro antifungal activity of the essential oils of L. alba belonging to the carvone chemotype (LA-13 and LA-57) and the citral chemotype (LA-10, LA-29, and LA-44); the carvone enantiomers (R)-(-)-carvone and (S)-(+)-carvone; and citral on phytopathogenic fungi Lasiodiplodia theobromae (LT), Fusarium pallidoroseum (FP) and Fusarium solani (FS). Concentrations of 0.01; 0.05; 0.1; 0.2; 0.3; 0.5 and 1.0 mL/100 mL were tested, and the percentage of mycelial growth inhibition (MGI) was calculated after 96h in relation to the control. Minimal Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) and Minimal Fungicide Concentrations (MFC) were obtained for essential oils and compounds. From the concentration of 0.2 mL/100 mL, all the accessions and carvone enantiomers were effective against the fungus LT, except the accession LA-44, for which the maximum inhibition occurred from the concentration of 0.3 mL/100 mL. Citral was the most effective compound against LT, with 100% of MGI from the concentration of 0.05 mL /100 mL. All accessions and enantiomers caused 100% of MGI against FP fungus from the concentration of 0.2 mL/100 mL. Once again, citral stood out by providing the same result as the other treatments from the concentration of 0.1 mL/100 mL. Considering the fungus FS, carvone enantiomers and citral caused 100% of MGI from the concentration of 0.1 mL/100 mL while all accessions caused 100% of MGI from the concentration of 0.2 mL/100 mL. Citral and carvone enantiomers presented the lowest MIC values (0.1 mL/100 mL) against FS fungus. The MIC of citral for LT and FP were not determined at the concentrations tested. (R)-(-)-carvone enantiomer presented the lowest MIC (0.1 mL/100 mL) for the LT fungus. Most of the other accessions presented MIC of 0.2 mL/100 mL for the three fungi. In relation to the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC), citral stood out with values from 0.05 mL/100 mL (LT). Citral and carvone presented the same MFC for FS (0.2 mL / 100 mL). The other accessions showed MFC values from 0.3 mL/100 mL for the three fungi. Essential oils of L. alba accessions, carvone enantiomers, and citral were efficient in phytopathogen control and could be considered as an alternative to fungicides for presenting inhibitory and fungicidal effect against these microorganisms at low concentrations.


O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar a atividade antifúngica in vitro de óleos essenciais de Lippia alba pertencentes ao quimiotipo carvona (LA-13 e LA-57) e ao quimiotipo citral (LA-10, LA-29 e LA-44); dos enantiômeros da carvona: (R)-(-)-carvona e (S)-(+)-carvona; e do citral sobre os fungos fitopatogênicos Lasiodiplodia theobromae (LT), Fusarium pallidoroseum (FP) e Fusarium solani (FS). Foram testadas as concentrações 0,01; 0,05; 0,1; 0,2; 0,3; 0,5 e 1,0 mL/100 mL, e, após 96h de incubação, a porcentagem de inibição do crescimento micelial (ICM) foi calculada em relação ao controle. Foram determinadas as Concentrações Inibitórias Mínimas (CIM) e Fungicidas Mínimas (CFM) para os óleos essenciais e compostos. A partir da concentração de 0,2 mL/100 mL todos os acessos e os enantiômeros da carvona foram efetivos contra LT, exceto o acesso LA-44, que proporcionou máxima inibição a partir da concentração de 0,3 mL/100 mL. O monoterpeno citral foi o mais efetivo contra LT, pois a partir da concentração de 0,05 mL /100 mL, 100% de ICM foi observada. Todos os acessos e enantiômeros da carvona causaram 100% de ICM contra o fungo FP, a partir da concentração de 0,2 mL/100 mL. Novamente, o composto citral de destacou por causar máxima ICM a partir da concentração de 0,1 mL/100 mL. Contra o fungo FS, os enantiômeros da carvona e o citral causaram 100% de ICM a partir da concentração de 0,1 mL/100 mL, enquanto os acessos proporcionaram mesmos resultados a partir da concentração de 0,2 mL/100 mL. O citral e os enantiômeros da carvona apresentaram os menores valores de CIM (0,1 mL/100 mL) frente ao FS. Não foi possível determinar a CIM do citral para LT e FP nas concentrações testadas. O enantiômero (R)-(-)-carvone apresentou a menor CIM (0,1 mL/100 mL) para o fungo LT. Os acessos apresentaram CIM a partir de 0,2 mL/100 mL para os três fungos. Em relação à concentração fungicida mínima (CFM), o citral se destacou com a menor CFM (0,05 mL/100 mL) para LT. Citral e carvonas apresentaram a mesma CFM para FS (0,2 mL / 100 mL). Os acessos apresentaram CFM a partir de 0,3 mL/100 mL para os três fungos. Os óleos essenciais dos acessos de L. alba, e os monoterpenos carvona e o citral foram eficientes no controle dos fungos fitopatogênicos e são considerados como uma alternativa em relação aos fungicidas sintéticos por apresentarem efeitos inibitórios e fungicidas contra esses microorganismos quando utilizados em baixas concentrações.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to conduct an inheritance study for the agronomic and chemical characteristics of basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) hybrid 'Genovese' x 'Maria Bonita'. F1 seeds were obtained from a cross of P1 (Genovese) x P2 (Maria Bonita). F2 seeds were obtained from selfing five F1 plants. In this experiment, a randomized block design with three replications was used. Each replication consisted of four treatments (generations). Seven plants from each P1, P2 and F1 generation and 21 plants from the F2 generation were grown for each replication. The following characteristics were evaluated at full bloom: plant height, leaf dry weight, essential oil content and yield in the leaves and the main essential oil chemical constituent concentrations in each plant. The characteristics plant height, essential oil yield and linalool content are controlled by more than one major gene, and these genes present additive and dominant effects. High heritability was observed for the characteristics plant height, leaf dry weight and content of linalool and 1,8-cineole. The hybrid 'Genovese' x 'Maria Bonita' presented a plant height and dry leaf weight heterosis of 32.31% and 131.54%, respectively.


O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar um estudo de herança para as características agronômicas e químicas de manjericão (Ocimum basilicum L.) híbrido 'Genovese' x 'Maria Bonita'. Sementes F1 foram obtidos a partir de um cruzamento de P1 (Genovese) x P2 (Maria Bonita). Sementes F2 foram obtidas a partir de autopolinização cinco plantas F1. Neste experimento, foi utilizado um delineamento em blocos casualizados com três repetições. Cada repetição foi constituída por quatro tratamentos (gerações). Sete plantas de cada P1, P2 e geração F1 e 21 plantas da F2 foram cultivadas para cada repetição. As seguintes características foram avaliadas em plena floração: altura da planta, folha seca, teor de óleo essencial e de rendimento nas folhas e as principais concentrações essenciais constituintes químicos do óleo em cada planta. A altura características da planta, o teor de óleo essencial e rendimento de linalol são controlados por mais do que um gene principal, e estes genes presentes efeitos aditivos e dominantes. Foi observada alta herdabilidade para as características altura da planta, folha de peso seco e conteúdo de linalol e 1,8-cineol. O híbrido 'Genovese' x 'Maria Bonita' apresentou altura de planta e peso da heterose seca de 32,31% e 131,54%, respectivamente.
