Chemical composition and antiphytoviral activity of essential oil were investigated in the aerial parts of Helichrysum italicum (Roth) G. Don (Asteraceae) growing wild in Croatia. Thirty nine compounds, representing 91.1% of the total oil, were identified. GC-MS analyses of the oil revealed presence of α-pinene (30.1%), neryl acetate (17.2%), β-curcumene (10.3%), γ-curcumene (6.4%) and (E)-caryophyllene (4.9%) as the most abundant components. Local host plants treated with essential oil of H. italicum prior to inoculation of tobacco mosaic virus showed delay in the development and... view more»
