Özet

Essential oils of Thymbra spicata, Satureja thymbra, Salvia fruticosa, Laurus nobilis, Mentha pulegium, Inula viscosa, Pimpinella anisum, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, and Origanum minitiflorum plants growing wild in southern Turkey were investigated by means of GC-FID, and 20 components were identified. The main ones were gamma-terpinene, p-cymene, thymol, and carvacrol as well as 1,8-cineole, pulegone, and anethole. Biological assays showed that fungitoxicity against the soil-borne plant disease-causing fungi Fusarium moniliforme, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Phytophthora capsici was due to different concentrations of the phenolic fraction (especially thymol and/or carvacrol) in the essential oils.
