O presente trabalho realizou estudo sobre Aster lanceolatus, Willd., pertencente a família Asteraceae, cujas partes aéreas foram divididas em duas porções. A primeira, composta de flores e a segunda, de caules e folhas. Da análise de CG nas frações hexano, verificou-se presença de β-sitosterol. Utilizando-se resultados obtidos com o estudo alelopático dos extratos etanólicos e frações, realizaram-se estudos fitoquímicos com o intuito de isolar compostos com provável atividade alelopática e testá-los com técnica desenvolvida denominada alelopatografia. Verificou-se a presença de espinasterol e canferol-rhamnosil-galactosídeo que ao serem submetidos a alelopatografia apresentaram influência alelopática inibitória da germinação e formação de folíolos. Da análise de CG/EM realizada com o óleo essencial, identificou-se treze constituintes: Mirtenol; α-Muroleno; 1,2-dihidro-1,1,6-trimetil Naftaleno; Bisaboleno; β-Lanona; Espatulenol; Oxido de Cariofileno; 3-Ciclohexeno-1-carboxaldeído; 3,4, Cedren-13-ol, 8; Neocloveno-(I) dihidro; Azuleno 1-4-dimetil-7-(1-metila); 2H-Benzociclohepteno-2-ona, 1,4a,5,6,7,8,9,9a-octahidro 4a metil trans e 1, hexahidrofarnesil acetona. A água aromática quando submetida a ensaio alelopático apresentou atividade alelopática inibitória da germinação e do crescimento de hipocótilo de Lactuca sativa, provavelmente devido aos constituintes do óleo essencial. De acordo com análise comparativa dos ensaios alelopáticos, pode-se referir que a influência alelopática é mais intensa ao utilizar-se fração inteira em comparação aos compostos isolados, e que a alelopatografia pode representar um método mais rápido e de fácil visualização de influência alelopática de constituintes impuros. Até este momento, não havia relatos da presença dos constituintes químicos relatados neste trabalho em Aster lanceolatus. Palavras chave: alelopatografia, alelopatia, fitoquímica, atividade antifúngica e antibacteriana. Allelophatic Applied Study from Aster lanceolatus, Willd Abstract The present work accomplished study about Aster lanceolatus, Willd., belonging the Asteraceae family, whose aerial parts were shared in two portions. The first one was composed of flowers and the second one of stems and leaves. Trough the analysis of CG accomplished in the hexan fractions, a presence of β-sitosterol has been verified. Using the results obtained with the allelophatic study of the ethanolics extracts and fractions, it has taken place the phytochemistries studies with the intention of to isolate composed with probable allelophatic activity and to test with a developed technique called allelophatography. It has been verified a presence of spinasterol and kaempferol-rhamnosyl-galactoside, which presented inhibitory influence of the germination and leaves formation when the allelopatography has been submitted. Through the analysis of CG/MS accomplished with the essential oil, thirteen compounds has been verified: myrtenol; α-muurolene; naphthalene, 1,2 dihydro-1,1,6-trimethyl; bisabolene; β-lanona; spathulenol; caryophyllene oxide; 3-cyclohexen-1-carboxaldehyde, 3, 4; cedren-13-ol, 8; neoclovene-(I), dihydro; azulene, 1,4-dimethyl-7-(1-methyle); 2H-benzocyclohepten-2-one, 1, 4a, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9a-octahydro 4a, methyl, trans; 1, hexahydrofarnesyl acetone. The aromatic water when submitted in the allelophatic study showed inhibitory allelophatic activity from the germination and the growth of hypocotyl of Lactuca sativa, probably because the essential oil fractions. In agreement with comparative analysis of the allelophatics rehearsals, it can refer the allelophatic influence is more intense when using complete fraction in comparison with the isolated compounds, and the allelophatography can represent a faster and easier method of visualization from the allelophatic influence of non-pure compounds. From now there have been no reports about the presence of chemistry compounds reported in this work in Aster lanceolatus. Key words: allelophatography, allelophaty, phytochemistry, antifungal and antibacterial activity.

The essential oil composition of the aerial parts of four populations of Eryngium campestre has been analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Samples growing in different types of soil were gathered at the same phenological state. A total of 84 compounds have been identified from the different samples under analysis. Qualitative and quantitative differences were found between inflorescences (I) and stems and leaves (SL) of the different populations. The main constituents of the inflorescences were identified as germacrene D (30.3-40.3%), β-curcumene (0.7-22.2%), myrcene (3.0-21.7%) and ( E)-β-farnesene (0.1-19.0%). The type of soil seemed to exert an influence on the chemical composition of the oils of this species. Whereas high concentrations of myrcene were found in the populations growing in acid soil, its concentration was significantly lower in the alkaline populations. β-Curcumene concentration was higher in the populations growing in alkaline soil and was practically absent from the acid soil population. Regarding the stems and leaves, only germacrene D (31.1-42.4%) and myrcene (0.5-23.15) were considered as main constituents, their composition not being affected by the type of soil. However, terpenoid distribution was clearly influenced by the soil, with the population growing in acid soil containing a greater amount of monoterpenes than that of the population growing in alkaline soil. A more exhaustive study needs to be carried out in order to confirm if the biosynthesis of these compounds could be influenced by the availability of Ca2+ in the soil.

The essential oils of Blainvellea rhomboidea (Asteraceae) were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC/MS and GC/FID. Initially, the essential oil from the aerial parts was investigated. From the 18 identified components, 5-indanol (14.5%) followed by p-cymen-8-ol (10.1%), β-caryophyllene (9.6%), caryophyllene oxide (9.6%), limonene (8.6%), terpinolene (7.8%), and spathulenol (7.7%) were the major constituents. The oil was tested against seven bacterial strains and the results showed significant antimicrobial activity. As a consequence, the essential oils from leaves and from flowers were analyzed separately. The major constituents of the leaf oil were terpinolene (21.2%), β-caryophyllene (19.2%), spathulenol (9.1%), caryophyllene oxide (7.4%), and bicyclogermacrene (7.1%), while the oil of the flowers contained terpinolene (28.1%), 5-indanol (16.3%), p-cymen-8-ol (15.3%) and limonene (14.7%) as prevalent compounds. The oils were tested against the same bacterial strains and the flower oil was the more active. These results indicated that the components of the essential oil from flowers seem to be responsible for the activity.

Abstract The purpose of our study was to compare the chemical compositions and antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of Pycnocycla spinosa and Pycnocycla flabellifolia essential oils. cis-Asarone (62.5%) and widdra-2,4(14)-diene (9%) were the main components of P. spinosa aerial part essential oil, while elemicin (60.1%) and caryophyllene oxide (9.8%) were the main components of P. spinosa seed essential oil. α-Phellandrene (25.5%), p-cymene (15.3%), and limonene (13.3%) were found in P. flabellifolia essential oil. The inhibition zone diameters for P. flabellifolia essential oil were significantly higher than for the two other essential oils from P. spinosa (p<0.05). In broth dilution assay (µL/mL), the sensitive microorganism to Pycnocycla sp. (P. spinosa, P. flabellifolia) was Aspergillus niger, followed by Candida albicans. In 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) system, P. spinosa aerial parts essential oil (IC50=548 µg/mL) had higher antioxidant activity than that of two other essential oils.
