Abstract. Lestari DA, Fiqa AP. 2020. Environmental factors influence on flowering and fruiting period of selected essential oil plants from Annonaceae. Biodiversitas 21: 910-921. Many species of Annonaceae family in tropics produce fragrances, due to the active ingredients for essential oils. Since the abundant of flower and fruit production, basic knowledge of flowering and fruiting periods needs to be known. The aim of this study was to determine influence of environmental factors to selected essential oil plants flowering and fruiting period from Annonaceae family, i.e. Artabotrys suaveolens, Cananga odorata, Desmos chinensis, Dasymaschalon borneense, Fissistigma latifolium, and Xylopia malayana. Observations were made throughout the year during dry and rainy season, with each phase carried out scoring qualitatively based on its abundance in plant canopy. Data on environmental factors (temperature, humidity, and rainfall intensity) were obtained from Registration Unit, Purwodadi Botanic Garden (PBG). Data of flowering and fruiting period were analyzed descriptively using Microsoft Excel, while the influence of environmental factors to flowering and fruiting period was analyzed by Biplot with Past 3.0. statistic program. Flowering period occurred in wet months at the end of year (November-December), while fruiting period occurred in long dry month. Initiation and bloom of flowering were influenced by temperature, while fruiting period was largely influenced by humidity and rainfall intensity, except for C. odorata whose fruiting period was influenced by temperature. Key words: Annonaceae, environmental factors, essential oils, flowering, fruiting

Essential oils are used as raw materials in various industries. Plants containing essential oils are flower kenanga and citronella fragrance. This study aims to create prototype of essential oil distillation equipment. Essential oils obtained from the prototype, then tested as an aroma therapy in liquid soap. The result of oil refining has been done several experiments by using citronella fragrance and kenanga flower. Device productivity goes well. This is indicated by the oil obtained from lemongrass and kenanga oil in the process of distillation. The resulting volatile oil is applied to the manufacture of liquid soap. Yield oil yields were 0.22%. and the fragrant lemongrass obtained is 0.12%. Based on the organoletic test on the resulting soap product, the average of the color is 3.7 (likes), the viscosity is 3.55 (likes), the aroma is 3.05 (regular) and the 3.55 foam (likes) on the kenanga aroma soy while the average color is 4.05 (like) viscosity 3.1 (regular), aroma 3.05 (regular) and foam 3.45 (likes) on liquid soap the aroma of citronella perfume. Keywords : Essential oil; Extraction; Lemongrass;  Soap

Mosquito-borne diseases are currently considered as important threats to human health in subtropical and tropical regions. Resistance to synthetic larvicides in different species of mosquitoes, as well as environmental pollution, are the most common adverse effects of excessive use of such agents. Plant-derived essential oils (EOs) with various chemical entities have a lower chance of developing resistance. So far, no proper classification based on lethal concentration at 50% (LC50) has been made for the larvicidal activity of EOs against different species of Aedes, Anopheles and Culex mosquitoes. To better understand the problem, a summary of the most common mosquito-borne diseases have been made. Related articles were gathered, and required information such as scientific name, used part(s) of plant, target species and LC50 values were extracted. 411 LC50 values were found about the larvicidal activity of EOs against different species of mosquitoes. Depending on the obtained results in each species, LC50 values were summarized as follows: 24 EOs with LC50 < 10 µg/mL, 149 EOs with LC50 in range of 10- 50 µg/mL, 143 EOs having LC50 within 50- 100 µg/mL and 95 EOs showing LC50 > 100 µg/mL. EOs of Callitris glaucophylla and Piper betle against Ae. aegypti, Tagetes minuta against An. gambiae, and Cananga odorata against Cx. quinquefasciatus and An. dirus having LC50 of ~ 1 µg/mL were potentially comparable to synthetic larvicides. It appears that these plants could be considered as candidates for botanical larvicides. [GMJ.2019;8:e1532]

Objetivo: investigar a efetividade do uso da aromaterapia com os óleos essenciais de lavanda (Lavandula angustifolia) ou ylang-ylang (Cananga odorata), associada à massagem, para o alívio da ansiedade e do estresse. Método: trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, exploratório-descritivo e correlacional com delineamento quase-experimental do tipo antes e depois. Realizou-se uma intervenção com seis sessões de massagem com aromaterapia com 21 professores de enfermagem verificado por meio de parâmetros psicológicos e biofisiológicos, antes e após cada sessão da intervenção. Aplicaram-se, no início e ao término da intervenção, o Inventário de Ansiedade Traço-Estado e a Lista de Sintomas de Stress. Analisaram-se os resultados com o Teste t de Student, considerando p-valor<0,05, e organizaram-se tabelas que os ilustram. Resultados: verificou-se que a pressão arterial apresentou redução efetiva em algumas sessões de aromaterapia. Observou-se que o estresse obteve redução de maior magnitude quando comparado à ansiedade e o grupo que utilizou ylang-ylang, maior redução da ansiedade que o grupo lavanda. Conclusão: demonstra-se efetividade parcial da aromaterapia associada à massagem, utilizando óleos essenciais de lavanda ou ylang-ylang em relação aos parâmetros biofisiológicos.

Method: this is a quantitative study, exploratory-descriptive and correlational with quasi-experimental design of type before and after. We performed a chart with six sessions of massage with aromatherapy with 21 teachers of nursing checked by means of psychological parameters and biophysiological, before and after each session of the intervention. There were applied, at the beginning and at the end of the intervention, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and the List of Symptoms of Stress. The results were analyzed with the Student t test, whereas p-value<0.05, and organized tables that illustrate them. Results: there was found that blood pressure presented effective reduction in some aromatherapy sessions. There was observed that the stress obtained reduction of greater magnitude when compared to anxiety and the group that used ylang-ylang, a greater reduction of anxiety then the group lavender. Conclusion: it is demonstrated partial effectiveness of aromatherapy associated with massage, using essential oils of lavender or ylang-ylang, in relation to the biophysiological parameters.

The aims of this study were to evaluate the main compounds and the effect of M. leucadendron, C. odorata and P. cablin essential oil odors on human physiological responses. The chemical compounds of essential oils in this study were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and the physiological effects of essential oils on human were analyzed via the sense of smell olfactory system. Physiological parameters of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse rate, stress index, and brain wave were recorded before and after sniffing essential oils. The result shows that the main compound of M. leucadendron, C. odorata, and P. cablin is 1,8-cineole, Caryophyllene and Patchouli Alcohol, respectively. Our results demonstrated that M. leucadendron and C. odorata oil odors possessed sedative effect and P. cablin oil odor had tendency to contain stimulating effect on human physiologies.
