“…Considering the results of the GCMS analysis of essential oils from Galium incanum, Galium dieckii, Galium aladaghense, the data are suitable for the evaluation of the components of oils and compare the components content to antimicrobial affectivity. In general, the results show that with increasing monoterpen components, especially thymol groups, increased inhibition of growth of bacteria (Baser et al, 2004). The essential oil of this Galium species can be used as antimicrobial agent in medicine, pharmacy or biotechnological area for the future applications.…”

In this work, chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of the essential oils of Galium incanum, Galium dieckii ve Galium aladaghense were firstly reported. The essential oils were obtained from the all parts of the plant by hydrodistillation and analyzed by using GC-MS. Antimicrobial activity of synthezied essential oils was carried out against 5 pathogen bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) ATCC 25922, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) ATCC 25923, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (P. syringae) DC300, Salmonella enterica serotype Typhmurium (S. typhmurium) SL 1344 and Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) ATCC 25175. According to the results, it was determined that isolated essential oils comprised of 61 compounds. Compounds of essential oils included that structure monoterpene (8.2%), monoterpenoid (14.75%) and sesquiterpene (14.75%). Unclassified compounds have been identified as other compounds. From the antimicrobial activity was observed that the isolated essential oil from Galium incanum, Galium dieckii ve Galium aladaghense exhibited a potent inhibitory effect against all gram negative and gram positive bacteria with diameter of inhibition zones ranging from 4.3 to 12.3 mm. Essential oil of Galium aladaghense indicated that high antimicrobial activity on all bacteria than Galium incanum and Galium dieckii.

“…The herb of G. aparine is dominated by fatty acids and terpenoids. Other compounds in this herb are: coumarin glycoside, coumarins and their derivatives, tannin and saponin substances (Baser et al, 2004). According to the literature, in the aqueous essential oils made from the aboveground parts of sticky willy, there are 72 chemical compounds (64.7%).…”

In the environment plants are competing for water, nutrients and light, and other components. Their competition is not only based on shading but on the allelopathic interactions as well. Sticky willy (Galium aparine L.) is a nitrophilous weed growing in thickets, crop fields and on ruderal areas. Its sticky and strongly branching stems are connecting together stalks of grain make it difficult to harvest. G. aparine wraps around plants and limits their access to the light. It may to secrete allelopathic substances to the soil. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of aqueous extracts from shoots G. aparine L. concentrations of 1, 3, and 5% on growth seedlings of Zea mays L. in two varieties: 'Lokata' F2, 'Wilga' F1 and F2. The seeds were placed on Petri dishes (100 units) and watered extracts from shoots G. aparine, and distilled water (control). The ability of seed germination was higher on extracts of concentration 1% for the variety 'Wilga' F1 and F2, and less for the 'Lokata' F2. Biometric analysis of seedling roots showed the stimulatory effect of 1% and 3% extracts, and the inhibitory for 5%. The fresh weight of maize seedlings was significantly higher on 1% extract, as compared to other and the control. The values of the dry weight of 'Lokata' F2 each concentration was lower in comparison to the control. The water contents in seedlings of the 'Wilga' F1 and 'Lokata' F2 varieties were significantly increased of each extracts, in comparison to control.

Representatives of the genus Galium L. are widely used in the folk medicine of many countries and are of interest to researchers. The lipophilic substances include mainly iridoids and terpenoids of several types [1][2][3]. We have previously studied the essential oil constituents of G. verum L. flowers [1]. In continuation of work on species of the genus Galium, we established the composition of essential oils from the herbs G. hercynicum Weigel. and G. humifusum Bieb. The raw material for obtaining essential oils was ground upper parts of the stems with leaves and flowers that were collected during flowering in June 2009 in Ivano-Frankovsk Oblast and in July 2009 in Kherson Oblast of Ukraine (herbarium specimens No. 7/09 and No. 9/09 are preserved in the Herbarium of the Pharmacognosy Department, NPU).Essential oil was obtained by steam distillation followed by treatment of the distillate with hexane in order to isolate the essential oil occurring in the plant raw material in minor or trace quantities [4]. The constituent composition of the herb essential oil of the studied species was established on an Agilent Technology 6890 N chromatograph with a 5973 N massspectrometric detector. The analytical conditions were capillary quartz chromatographic column HP-5MS, length 30 m, inner diameter 0.25 mm; He carrier gas at flow rate 1 mL/min; sample volume 0.1-0.5 PL. Injected samples were divided 1/50. Thermostat temperature was 50°C with programming to 220°C at 4°/min. The detector and vaporizer temperatures were 250°C. Compounds were identified by comparison of the chromatographic mass spectral results with data in the NIST02 mass spectra library.The essential oil content in air-dried G. hercynicum herb was 0.01%. A total of 47 compounds was found, of which 35 were identified. Of these, 15 were terpenoids; 7, higher hydrocarbons; 7, fatty acids; and 6, alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones. The monoterpenoids included acyclic linalool, geraniol, nerol, geranylacetone; monocyclic, D-terpineol, E-ionone; bicyclic, borneol; monocyclic aromatic, thymol and carvacrol; bicyclic sesquiterpenoids, D-and E-eudesmol, hexahydrofarnesylacetone, farnesylacetone; the diterpenoid phytol, and the triterpenoid squalene.The essential oil content in air-dried G. humifusum herb was 0.01%. A total of 75 compounds was found, of which 38 were identified. Of these, 14 were terpenoids and aromatic compounds; 21, higher hydrocarbons; 3, fatty acids. The monoterpenoids included acyclic, -vinylphenol. Table 1 presents the results.A comparison of the essential oil constituents of G. hercynicum, G. humifusum, and G. verum [1] showed that D-terpineol and squalene were common to these Galium species.The characteristic constituents of essential oils of G. hercynicum and G. verum were the terpenoids D-terpineol, linalool, borneol, and squalene; common to G. humifusum and G. verum, D-terpineol, squalene, and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol.It is interesting that the aromatic monoterpenoids thymol (12.39 and 9.11%) and carvacrol (10.22 and 1.14%) dominated essenti...
