  • Mexican Oregano Lippia Graveolens
    ARIZONA-SONORA DESERT MUSEUM PLANT CARE INFORMATION Mexican Oregano Lippia graveolens DESCRIPTION: Mexican Oregano is native to Texas and southern New Mexico, Mexico and Central America as far south as Nicaragua. It is a twiggy shrub, reaching 3 to 6 feet tall and as wide. Dark green leaves are high in oils, giving the plant a flavor similar to oregano. The leaves are widely used as an herb in Mexico and Central America. The flavor has notes of lemon and camphor, which adds a complexity to sauces. It also makes great addition to seafood, cheeses and vegetables. Fragrant buttery-colored flowers with yellow centers can be found on the plant throughout the year, especially after rains. Another attraction of this plant is that the flowers attract many species of butterflies. RECOMMENDED USE: Rock garden, enhanced desert revegetation. Plant it where the aroma of the foliage can be enjoyed. Mexican Oregano is a flavor filled culinary herb that is used extensively in Mexican and Tex-Mex cooking. It can be grown as an annual or containerized for indoor winter growing. CULTURE: Hardiness: It is frost hardy to around 20oF with little damage. Sun tolerance: This plant thrives in full sun or lightly filtered sun. Too much shade will make it bloom less and grow leggy. Watering and feeding: This versatile herb grows in dry climates and uses minimal water once established. Watch watering closely during the first hot season. After establishment, a weekly watering will help it look its best. Feeding seldom needed unless grown in a container. Soil requirements: Any soil.

Abstract Lippia graveolens, or Mexican oregano, is a plant of economic importance and the collection of foliage is mainly carried out from natural populations. Micropropagation proposes an alternative to produce material, with high phytosanitary quality and propagation in less time of individuals selected for their characteristics of commercial value. The objective of this work was to establish a protocol for the in vitro propagation of Lippia graveolens. The research was conducted in 2018- 2019. The establishment was achieved with nodal segments in basal medium (MS), at this stage 57.32% of axenic explants were recovered. For the propagation stage four concentrations (0, 1, 2 and 3 mg L-1) of benzylaminopurine (6-BAP) were added to the MS medium, the number of shoots and height of the plan were evaluated, the best results in multiplication were achieved with 3 mg L-1 of 6-BAP, obtaining 40.35 shoots per explant. The length of the shoot was longer in treatments without growth regulators.

This heat forces me to be inside almost the entire day with quick trips out to feed the chickens or water the gardens. In the evening, I venture out for a short time to sit in the hammock, but eventually the mosquitoes run me back inside. It was a good July meeting at Festival Hill with Henry’s presentation. I was sorry we could not Zoom, but recently I went out and met with Jeff at Festival Hill and the connection worked. Good news for future meetings there! At the July meeting past board members were given pins in the shape of watering cans for their service. A special gift was sent to Karen Cornwell for her years as Board Chair. It is a windchime with an inscription saying "Thank you."

Received 23 October 2015; received in revised form 13 November 2015; accepted 14 November 2015 Abstract. Adulticidal and oviposition- and hatching-altering activities of essential oil extracted from Mexican oregano leaves (Lippia graveolens H.B.K.) (OEO) were evaluated on engorged adult female Rhipicephalus microplus ticks using the adult immersion test bioassay. Two- fold dilutions of OEO were tested from a starting dilution of 10% down to 1.25%. Results showed 100% adulticidal activity at 10% OEO concentration and oviposition inhibition of 65.8% and 40.9% at 5.0% and 2.5% OEO concentration, respectively. Egg hatching inhibition was achieved by 26.0% and 11.5% at 5.0% and 2.5% OEO concentration, respectively. These effects could be attributed to OEO major components: thymol, carvacrol and p-cymene, which together account for more than 60.0% of the OEO chemical composition. Mexican oregano could represent a potential source for development of alternative tick control agents. INTRODUCTION 2007; Martínez-Velázquez et al., 2011a, 2011b).

El Diez C.P., Culiacán, Sinaloa 80129, Mexico; [email protected] (N.L.-L.); [email protected] (E.P.G.-G.); [email protected] (G.V.-O.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +52-166-776-05536 Received: 25 May 2017; Accepted: 10 June 2017; Published: 14 June 2017 Abstract: Essential oils of oregano are widely recognized for their antimicrobial activity, as well as their antiviral and antifungal properties. Nevertheless, recent investigations have demonstrated that these compounds are also potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic and cancer suppressor agents. These properties of oregano essential oils are of potential interest to the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. The aim of this manuscript is to review the latest evidence regarding essential oils of oregano and their beneficial effects on health. Keywords: oregano species; terpenoids; antioxidant; anti-inflammatory; antidiabetic 1. Introduction According to the Encyclopedic Dictionary of Polymers, essential oils (EOs) are “volatile oils or essences derived from vegetation and characterized by distinctive odors and a substantial measure of resistance to hydrolysis” [1]. In general, EOs are complex mixtures of volatile compounds that are present in aromatic plants [2–4]. These compounds can be isolated from distinct anatomic parts of the plants mainly by distillation and pressing [5,6]. The main components in EOs are terpenes, but aldehydes, alcohols and esters are also present as minor components [7].
