“…This is attributed to the varied bouquets of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by petals, each contributing to the distinctive signature of every flower. Flower extracts as essential oils (EOs) hold particular appeal for industries such as cosmetics, perfume, toiletries, and hygiene [ 3 ].…”

In the circular economy framework, hydrosols, by-products of the essential oil industry, are gaining attention for their potential in waste reduction and resource reuse. This study analyzed hydrosols from six edible flowers, investigating their chemical composition (VOC-Hyd) and antibacterial properties alongside volatile organic compounds of fresh flowers (VOC-Fs) and essential oils (EOs). Antirrhinum majus exhibited ketones as major VOC-Fs (62.6%) and VOC-Hyd (41.4%), while apocarotenoids dominated its EOs (68.0%). Begonia cucullata showed alkanes (33.7%) and aldehydes (25.7%) as primary VOC-Fs, while alkanes were prevalent in both extracts (65.6% and 91.7% in VOC-Hyd and in EOs, respectively). Calandula officinalis had monoterpenoids in VOC-Fs and VOC-Hyd (89.3% and 49.7%, respectively), while its EOs were rich in sesquiterpenoids (59.7%). Dahlia hortensis displayed monoterpenoid richness in both VOC-Fs and extracts. Monocots species’ VOC-Fs (Polianthes tuberosa, Tulbaghia cominsii) were esters-rich, replaced by monoterpenoids in VOC-Hyd. P. tuberosa EO maintained ester richness, while T. cominsii EOs contained a significant percentage of sulfur compounds (38.1%). Antibacterial assays indicated comparable minimum inhibitory concentration profiles across VOC-Hyd: B. calcullata and P. tuberosa against Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella enterica ser. typhimurium, T. cominsii against Escherichia coli and S. enterica, A. majus and C. officinalis against S. aureus, and D. hortensis against S. enterica.

“…As a result, several studies are being carried out in an attempt to develop a natural allelopathic compound capable of acting as a herbicide, mainly on weed species that cause great damage to farmers and ranchers around the world (Bitencourt et al, 2021). Allelopathy is a chemical process where plants naturally release into the environment compounds from their special metabolism with the function of supplying, inhibiting and also providing the function of displacement on the establishment or development of other plants in their habitat (Barrales-Cureño et al, 2022). The allelopathic potential of some vegetable species presents encouraging results in the control of germination, development and patterns of defective plants or even in the inhibition of other plant species.…”

Fortunella margarita known as ‘Kin-Kan or kumquat orange’ is a citrus species cultivated in South America with excellent adaptation to different climates, especially tropical. The fruits of F. margarita have a spectacular essential oil content. This study aimed to evaluate the allelopathic action of essential oil from ripe fruits of F. margarita in different concentrations on two large crops, sunflower (Helianthus annuus) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) in vitro. Ripe fruits of F. margarita were collected from an orchard in Rio Verde, Goiás, Brazil in January 2024. The skin of the fruits was removed and crushed to obtain the essential oil by Clevenger. The essential oil content obtained was expressed as a percentage (%). For the chemical profile, gas chromatography with sequential mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used. For the allelopathic assay, varying concentrations of essential oil were produced. The allelopathic test was carried out in acrylic germination boxes and kept in a D.B.O. vegetation chamber. The results were expressed as percentage of germination µL mL-1. The radicle length was determined using a digital caliper and expressed in centimeters (cm). Seven major volatile compounds were obtained (D-Limonene 22%, β-Phellandrene 12%, β-Pinene 11%, Germacrene D 9%, Bicyclosexquiphellandrene 8%, Trans-Arbuscolene and α-Guaiene both with 5%). The essential oil demonstrated strong allelopathic activity on sunflower germination rates, especially for concentrations greater than 12.5-100 µL mL-1, between 54.40 and 12.80%. Barley seeds demonstrated resistance and a rate greater than 50% at the highest concentration (100 µL mL-1). Radicle length also showed a significant difference (P < 0.05) in all essential oil concentrations. Again, sunflower was strongly affected, with average primary roots between 0.98 and 0.11 cm and between 2.77 and 0.11 cm for barley. The essential oil from the ripe fruits of Fortunella margarita has an allelopathic action on germination and a toxic effect on the development of primary roots in sunflower and barley seeds.

“…The Combretum species has great prospects for the management of various infectious diseases (Eloff et al, 2008) and will have a vital relevance with economic benefit to the perfumery industry (Alam et al, 2018;Barrales-Cureno et al, 2021;Crovadore et al, 2012;Mohaddese, 2016;Sabo and Knezevic, 2019). Nevertheless, the tangible potential of Combretum has not been exploited to the fullest.…”

Herbal medicine is a form of medicine that has been extensively exploited in traditional medicine, and its therapeutic potential is accepted. Combretum is one of the most frequently happening genera in the African and Asia tropical and subtropical areas; some are widely used in African herbal medicine due to their ethnopharmacological properties. Numerous species of this plant have been used and expended owing to high pharmaco-constituents following their phytochemical screening and evaluations. The recent incidence of multidrug-resistant strains and reduced receptiveness to antibiotics has raised serious anxiety in health delivery and the need for an urgent search for new antibiotics mediators from nature. A countless number of natural substances have resulted from the Combretum species as medicine and are utilized traditionally for the management of bacteriological infection. The plants have received comprehensive documentation as a good cradle of natural constituents that can be categorized into four groups following their biosynthetic source: alkaloids, terpenoids, polyketides, and phenylpropanoids. The study deals with the ethnobotanical and pharmacological significance of the Combretum species for treating numerous ailments and diseases.
