“…There is a different concentration of β-himachalene (27.67–44.23%) in the EOs which were obtained from cedar wood (sawdust) (Itzer and Senoual forest) [ 36 ] in comparison with our study. Our results are not in line with the previous studies focused on EOs from Moroccan cedar wood [ 37 , 38 , 39 ] in which approximately forty compounds strongly dominated by α-himachalene (12.74%, 11.6%, 16.92%) and β-himachalene (33.45%, 33.8%, 43.18%) were found.…”

The present study was designed to evaluate commercial cedar essential oil (CEO), obtained by hydrodistillation from cedar wood, in relationship to its chemical composition and antioxidant, in vitro and in situ antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and anti-insect activity. For these purposes, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, DPPH radical-scavenging assay, agar and disc diffusion, and vapor phase methods were used. The results from the volatile profile determination showed that δ-cadinene (36.3%), (Z)-β-farnesene (13.8%), viridiflorol (7.3%), and himachala-2,4-diene (5.4%) were the major components of the EO chemical constitution. Based on the obtained results, a strong antioxidant effect (81.1%) of the CEO was found. CEO is characterized by diversified antimicrobial activity, and the zones of inhibition ranged from 7.33 to 21.36 mm in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, and from 5.44 to 13.67 mm in yeasts and fungi. The lowest values of minimal inhibition concentration (MIC) were noted against gram-positive Micrococcus luteus (7.46 µL/mL) and against yeast Candida krusei (9.46 µL/mL). It seems that the vapor phase of CEO can inhibit the growth of the microscopic filamentous fungi of the genus Penicillium according to in situ antifungal analysis on bread, carrots, and celery. This finding confirms the impact of CEO on the change in the protein structure of older biofilms of Pseudomonas fluorescens and Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica. Insecticidal activity of a vapor phase has also been demonstrated against Pyrrhocoris apterus. CEO showed various advantages on antimicrobial activity, and it is an ideal substitute for food safety.

“…This demonstrates that the strongest responses of C. cedri to monoterpenes and monoterpenoids were due to the detection of host plant volatiles. Moreover, we found that ORNs in the primary rhinaria of all three aphid species were strongly stimulated by the green leaf volatile trans -2-hexenal, which is one of the most abundant volatiles of plants (Tava and Pecetti, 1997 ; Giacomuzzi et al, 2016 ; Jaouadi et al, 2021 ).…”

“…In general, some monoterpenes, such as (+)-limonene, sabinene, α-pinene, and (–)-β-pinene, and monoterpenoids (terpineol) are the major volatiles of the essential oil of Cedrus spp. (Gao et al, 2005 ; Jaouadi et al, 2021 ), which are host plants of C. cedri . We found that four large placoid sensilla of the primary rhinaria in C. cedri were all responsive to host plant volatiles, (+)-limonene, terpineol, and sabinene.…”

Olfaction is important for mediating aphid behaviors and is involved in host location and mating. Antennal primary rhinaria play a key role in the chemoreception of aphids. The function of the peripheral olfactory system in the subfamily Aphidinae has been intensively studied, but little is known about other subfamilies of Aphididae. Therefore, three aphid species were selected to study the olfactory reception of plant volatiles: Cinara cedri (Lachninae), Eriosoma lanigerum (Eriosomatinae), and Therioaphis trifolii (Calaphidinae). In this study, the morphology and distribution of the antennal sensilla of apterous adults were observed by scanning electron microscopy. Three morphological types were identified (placoid sensilla, coeloconic sensilla, and trichoid sensilla); the first two were distributed on the antennal primary rhinaria. A pattern of primary rhinaria in C. cedri was found that differed from that of E. lanigerum and T. trifolii and consists of 1 large placoid sensillum (LP) on the 4th segment, 2 LPs on the 5th segment, and a group of sensilla on the 6th antennal segments. Later, we recorded and compared neuronal responses of the distinct placoid sensilla in the primary rhinaria of the three aphid species to 18 plant volatiles using a single sensillum recording (SSR) technique. The results indicated that the functional profiles based on the tested odorants of the primary rhinaria of the three investigated aphid species were clustered into three classes, and exhibited excitatory responses to certain types of odorants, especially terpenes. In C. cedri, the ORNs in LP6 exhibited the highest responses to (±)-citronellal across all tested chemicals, and showed greater sensitivity to (±)-citronellal than to (+)-limonene. ORNs in LP5 were partially responsive to α-pinene and (–)-β-pinene in a dose-dependent manner. Across different species, E. lanigerum showed significantly stronger neuronal responses of LP5 to several terpenes, such as (–)-linalool and α-terpineol, compared to other species. In T. trifolii, the neuronal activities in LP6 showed a greater response to methyl salicylate as compared to LP5. Overall, our results preliminarily illustrate the functional divergence of ORNs in the primary rhinaria of aphids from three subfamilies of Aphididae and provide a basis for better understanding the mechanism of olfactory recognition in aphids.

The Atlas cedar belongs to the Pinaceae family of trees and can be found in a crucial resinous mountain forest in Morocco that spans 133,000 hectares. This endemic species is valued for its wood quality and essential oil (EO), which has various biological activities. However, pathogenic fungi, particularly Trametes pini and Ungulina officinalis , frequently attack Atlas cedarwood, causing significant damage and loss of value. This study aims to extract EO from both healthy and infected Atlas cedarwood to promote its valorization and to assess the antibacterial properties of the resulting EOs. The EOs from healthy and sick cedarwood, as well as a combination of these woods, were extracted using hydrodistillation and simultaneous hydrodistillation. Gas chromatography and mass spectrometry were used to examine the chemical compositions of the EOs. In addition, the disk diffusion method and a measurement of the minimum inhibitory concentration were used to assess the EOs’ antibacterial activity against two bacterial strains, namely, Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ). The results show that the extraction yields of healthy cedarwood, cedarwood infected by Trametes pini , and cedarwood infected by U. officinalis were 1.43 ± 0.03, 0.56 ± 0.03, and 0.26 ± 0.06%, respectively, Moreover, the antibacterial results showed that neither the healthy nor the diseased cedar oil had any impact on either strain. However, the EOs from some binary mixtures (75:25, 50:50, and 25:75%) of cedarwood infected by Trametes pini and cedarwood infected by U.ngulina officinalis and the mixture of healthy cedarwood and cedarwood infected by the two fungi inhibited the growth of S. aureus with different MIC values. The findings of this research could lead to the development of new products with antibacterial properties, such as natural disinfectants, and reduce the amount of waste generated by the cedar industry.
