“…Aliphatic acids were the most abundant among nonterpene components, representing 44.4% of the total oil. Lograda et al (2013) found 41 compounds in plants collected in Algeria, being the most represented n-heneicosane (17.30%), hexadecanoic acid (12.79%), n-tricosane (10.51%), n-pentacosane (5.64%) and caryophyllene oxide (5.03%).…”

“…Therefore, C. solstitialis may be used as an antibiotic for S. aureus infections ( Tekeli et al, 2011 ). Lograda et al (2013) tested the biological activity of the essential oil of C . solstitialis grown in Algeria against nine bacterial strains, and it showed moderate to significant antibacterial activity.…”

“…Two articles from California ( Beck, Smith & Merrill, 2008 ; Oster et al, 2015 ) were not considered in the “Range (%)” row due to a lack of information about this variable. One article from Algeria ( Lograda et al., 2013 ) was excluded in the “Parts of the plant” row because this information was not available in the article.…”

Invasive plants are known for their impacts to ecosystems and societies, but their potential cultural use tend to be unexplored. One important mechanism of plant invasion is the use of “allelochemicals” or “novel weapons”: chemical defenses which are new to their invaded habitats and that confer them competitive advantages. However, these chemicals are precisely what confers them ethnobotanical and medicinal properties. We reviewed the literature assessing the biogeography of the cultural uses of the model invasive plant yellow-starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis L.; Asteraceae), and assessed the extent to which the introduction of a weed native to Eurasia into several non-native world regions was paralleled by the spread of cultural uses from its native range. We found that the species was rich in pharmaceutically active compounds and that the species had been traditionally used for medicinal purposes, as raw material, and as food. However, ethnobotanical uses were reported almost exclusively in its native range, with no uses described for the non-native range, apart from honey production in California, Argentina, and Australia. Our study exemplifies how, when plant introductions are not paralleled synchronously by significant human migrations, cultural adoption can be extremely slow, even within the native range of the species. Invasive species can provide real-time insights into the cultural processes by which humans learn to use plants. This case study highlights how biological invasions and cultural expansions can be subjected to different constraints.

“…For comparison with previous works relative to Algerian R. officinalis, cineole-rich essential oils have been reported from plants harvested in Bordj Bou Arreridj (South-East Algiers), [7,26] Béjaïa and Tébessa (Eastern Algeria), [26,28] El-Bayadh, [21,29] Khenchela. [30] Camphor-rich EOs have been isolated from plants collected in Batna and M'Sila, [26] Constantine (North-East Algeria), [36] Djelfa and Laghouat. [23] R. officinalis oil samples containing fair amount of verbenone have been reported from plants harvested near Algiers, wild or cultivated, [23,27,35] Annaba, (Wild) [11] Sétif, (cultivated) [12] (Eastern Algeria), Tlemcen, (cultivated), [24] and overall, Mascara, (Western Algeria).…”

The chemical composition of 71 oil samples from the leaves of Rosmarinus officinalis L., harvested in three provinces: Naâma (Western Algeria), Béchar and Adrar (Algerian Sahara), was investigated by GC‐FID, GC/MS and 13CNMR. In total, 52 compounds were identified accounting for 88.8 % to 99.9 % of the total composition. The chemical composition of the oils was largely dominated by monoterpenes, with 1,8‐cineole (9.7–70.2 %), camphor (0.3–31.0 %) being the major compounds followed by borneol (0.3–21.0 %), α‐pinene (4.5–14.5 %), β‐pinene (0.1–12.0 %), linalool (0.7–9.9 %) and verbenone (up to 11.1 %) which was present only in the samples harvested in Adrar. All compositions (71 samples) were submitted to statistical analysis. Combination of hierarchical clustering dendrogram and principal component analysis suggested the existence of three groups (one of these being subdivided into two sub‐groups) which were distinguished on the basis of 1,8‐cineole, camphor and verbenone contents. Four essential oil samples, containing 1,8‐cineole and/or camphor as main components, exhibited anti‐inflammatory activity against lipoxygenase, with IC50 values in the range 93 to 155 μg/mL.
