The objectives of this study were to
identify the chemical composition of essential oil of Salvia pachystachys Trautv. (Lamiaceae) and to evaluate
antifungal activity against plant pathogens that cause anthracnose, Colletotrichum
acutatum J. H. Simmonds,
C. fragariae A.N. Brooks
and C. gloeosporioides (Penz.) Penz. & Sacc. Water-distilled
oil of S.
pachystachys collected from the eastern part of Turkey was analyzed by gas
chromatography-mass spectrometry
(GC-MS). Major components
were identified as a-pinene (18.9%), (Z)-b-ocimene
(11.8%) and 1,8-cineole (8.0%). The oil showed weak antifungal activity against three Colletotrichum
species using direct-bioautography assay.
