Phytochemical and biological strategies to improve essential oils content in lavender By TITLE PAGE Keefah AL-Garallaa Approved by: Richard L. Harkess (Major Professor) Sorina Popescu (Minor Professor) Guihong Bi Tongyin Li Jiaxu Li Michael S. Cox (Graduate Coordinator) Scott T. Willard (Dean, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences) A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of Mississippi State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Horticulture in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Mississippi State, Mississippi August 2021 Copyright by Keefah AL-Garallaa 2021 Name: Keefah AL-Garallaa Date of Degree: August 6, 2021 Institution: Mississippi State University Major Field: Horticulture Major Professor: Richard L. Harkess Title of Study: Phytochemical and biological strategies to improve essential oils content in lavender Pages in Study: 269 Candidate for Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Lavender is an important medicinal plant that is sensitive to various environmental factors. Lavender essential oils have been shown to improve human health in response to many diseases. Lavender is grown all over the world, which indicates its ability to adapt to different climates. There are no reports of its commercial cultivation in Mississippi. It has been proven that there are many factors that directly affect the plant growth and concentration of essential oils in lavender. Studying these factors that affect plant growth and essential oils will be beneficial for lavender producers. The aim of this study is to increase the production of essential oil through cultural techniques and analyze the active compounds of three Lavandula species (L. intermedia, L. angustifolia, L. stoechas) using HPLC (High performance liquid chromatography) and GC-MS (Gas Chromatography, Mass spectrometer) technology. Applications of gibberellic acid, iron chelate, Mycorrhizae, humic acid, DAP, and potash fertilizer were studied to promote plant growth and production of essential oils. The essential oils were extracted using a Soxhlet distillation. The quantity and quality of the essential oils was also evaluated using HPLC and GC-MS. The linalool, linalyl acetate, and other compounds from Lavandula may be considered natural raw material source for pharmaceuticals and cosmetic products. These vital components of the essential oil of lavender leaves, flowers, and stems (linalool, linalyl, and other compounds) were affected by chelated iron treatments, gibberellin, humic acid, and mycorrhizae. The essential oil compounds of L. angustifolia and L. x intermedia cultivars make them worth cultivating. DEDICATION For my mother. Thanks for always being with me.

In addition, without the financial support of the Iraqi Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, iii which offered me a scholarship for postgraduate studies, this work would not have been possible. I am also thankful to the staff. Thanks also go to the soul of my beloved mother, my father, and soul of my husband, sisters, and brothers for helping me survive all the stress and not allowing me to give up. The best part of life is sharing it with the ones you love. Thank you to all. Most of all none of this would have been possible without the love and encouragement of my family and friends. I am eternally grateful. Your faith in me humbles and inspires me to achieve more than I ever dreamed I could, thank you. Special thanks go to Mr. Bill Everett for being a friend in every way. I thank my esteemed brother-in-law, Dr Walid Al-Shahib Al- Hilli for the continuous support and encouragement of my PhD studies. Very strong thanks to him for facilitating procedures for obtaining the opportunity for funding to undertake my studies. My gratitude extends to the Faculty of Agriculture and life science for undertaking my studies at the Department of Plant and Soil Sciences, Mississippi State University. Special thanks go to Dr. Amelia Fox for her support and encouragement. My sincere thanks also go to Dr. Hassan, and Dr. Islam who gave access to their laboratory and research facilities. Special thanks go to my small family (Waqar and Rabia) for their support and friendship over the year. Special thanks go to my family here in America (Melissa, Jenny, Maggie, Lauren, Jerry, Jay, and Jacob).

In both species, flowering is continuous. This means that, when open flowers on a spike are shaded, new flowers emerge. Such a flowering pattern might be advantageous to the plant to minimise competition for pollinators and promote efficient resource allocation. The flowering periods of the two species overlap. Both species secreted increasing amounts of nectar from early morning to late afternoon. The mean maximum volumes of accumulated nectar from bagged flowers occurred at 15:00 for L. pubescens (0.50 ± 0.24 µL/flower) and at 18:00 for L. dentata (0.68 ± 0.19 µL/flower). The volume of the nectar that became available between two successive measurements (three-h intervals) varied from 0.04 µL/flower to 0.28 µL/flower for L.

  • Penicillium Arizonense, a New, Genome Sequenced Fungal Species
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Penicillium arizonense, a new, genome sequenced fungal species, reveals a high chemical diversity in Received: 07 June 2016 Accepted: 26 September 2016 secreted metabolites Published: 14 October 2016 Sietske Grijseels1,*, Jens Christian Nielsen2,*, Milica Randelovic1, Jens Nielsen2,3, Kristian Fog Nielsen1, Mhairi Workman1 & Jens Christian Frisvad1 A new soil-borne species belonging to the Penicillium section Canescentia is described, Penicillium arizonense sp. nov. (type strain CBS 141311T = IBT 12289T). The genome was sequenced and assembled into 33.7 Mb containing 12,502 predicted genes. A phylogenetic assessment based on marker genes confirmed the grouping ofP. arizonense within section Canescentia. Compared to related species, P. arizonense proved to encode a high number of proteins involved in carbohydrate metabolism, in particular hemicellulases. Mining the genome for genes involved in secondary metabolite biosynthesis resulted in the identification of 62 putative biosynthetic gene clusters. Extracts ofP. arizonense were analysed for secondary metabolites and austalides, pyripyropenes, tryptoquivalines, fumagillin, pseurotin A, curvulinic acid and xanthoepocin were detected. A comparative analysis against known pathways enabled the proposal of biosynthetic gene clusters in P. arizonense responsible for the synthesis of all detected compounds except curvulinic acid. The capacity to produce biomass degrading enzymes and the identification of a high chemical diversity in secreted bioactive secondary metabolites, offers a broad range of potential industrial applications for the new speciesP. arizonense. The description and availability of the genome sequence of P. arizonense, further provides the basis for biotechnological exploitation of this species. Penicillia are important cell factories for the production of antibiotics and enzymes, and several species of the genus also play a central role in the production of fermented food products such as cheese and meat.

Vasingtona bb, Podgorica Summary. This study investigates chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of essential oil of Lavandula officinalis from Montenegro, Mediterranean, and effects on autonomic nervous system. The oil was analysed by GC-MS technique in order to determine the majority compounds while dilution method was used to determine minimal inhibitory concentration. The present study assessed autonomic parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, and skin temperature to determine the arousal level of the autonomic nervous system. In addition, subjects were asked to estimate their mood responses such as feeling pleasant or unpleasant, uncomfortable, sen- suality, relaxation, or refreshing in order to assess subjective behavioural arousal. Chemical analysis by GC-MS identified 31 compounds in lavender oil representing 96.88% of the total oil. Linalool (24.84%), was a major component, together with linalyl acetate (22.39%), 1,8 cineole (18.13%) and camphor (12.88%). The investigat- ed lavender oil consisted mostly of oxygenated monoterpenes (87.95%) and monoterpene hydrocarbons (7%).
