        Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt and Lauterer (Hemiptera: Aphalaridae) is the most important key pest of pistachio trees in Iran. Chemical control is the most effective and accessible method to control this pest. But, the environmental problems caused by the overuse of the synthetic insecticide have been a source of concern in recent years. Botanical insecticides are recognized as proper alternatives to conventional insecticides. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the toxicity of extracts from Achillea millefolium L. (Asteraceae) and Carum copticum L. (Apiaceae) against 5th instar nymphs of common pistachio psyllid, Agonoscena pistaciae Burckhardt and Lauterer (Hemiptera: Aphalaridae) under laboratory conditions.. Bioassay was carried out using a dipping technique. Probit analysis of concentration-mortality data was conducted to estimate the LC50 value. The results showed that A. millefolium and C. copticum extracts were effective on A. pistaciae. C. copticum with an LC50 value of 749.95 mL/L was more toxic than A. millefolium (914.33 mL/L) on 5th instar nymphs of A. pistaciae. But, according to the LC50 values, no significant differences were observed between A. millefolium and C. copticum 24 h post-treatment. Our results suggest that the extracts of A. millefolium and C. copticum are suitable compounds to control of A. pistaciae Manuscript profile

        The high damage of storage pests and the adverse effects of chemical pesticides have made the use of plant compounds as one of the best ways to control pests. However, there are still limitations such as low competitiveness for plant insecticides such as essential oils and extracts. In this study, lethal and repellency effects of the essential oils of flowers, leaves, stems and roots of Achillea millefolium on the adult of Oryzaephilus surinamensis L. All of the bioassay experiments were conducted at temperature 28±1 0C, humidity of 65±5% and under darkness. The experiments were conducted under the randomized block design with five repetitions, each being conducted separately during 48 hours. The results of the study indicated that Achillea millefolium flower had highest lethal effect on adult of the pest in fumigant (LC50 = 14/3 µL/ml) and contact toxicities (LC50 = 8/9 µL/ml) and other parts of the plant (leaf, stem and root) had, respectively, the least lethal effect on the underlying pest. The repellency effect of the plant’s flower, leaf, stem and root was investigated on the insect using tube-Y olfactometer device. The experiment was conducted with five repetitions and each repetition was conducted with 20 insects. Results obtained from variance analysis of the data related to repellency effect of the studied extracts indicated that compared to other three extracts, flower extract of Achillea millefolium at lower concentration can repel adults of Oryzaephilus Surinamensis L. and turns to be a strong repellent.

        Salvia officinalis L. and Achillea millefoliom L. have been reported as  an antioxidant, anti infection and anti inflammatory. In this study aerial parts of both of plants in blooming were collected in June 2014 (1700m) from their natural habitats in Kerman province. Essential oils were obtained by hydro-distillation (Clevenger apparatus) and were analyzed by GC/MS. Total phenol content was measured by Folin–Ciocalteau method and their antioxidant activity was measured by DPPH. Results were showed that the oil of Salvia officinalis L. had higher amount of phenolic compounds (1.8 mg E GA/ml) and antioxidant activity(99.48% radical scavenging). The camphor (33.6%), α-tujene (25.4%) and 1,8-cineole(13.8%) were the most components of S.officinalis L. essential oil, respectively and the 1,8-cineole (22.3%), carvacrol (15%) and γ-terpinene were the most components of A.millefolium L. These results were confirmed that the secondary metabolites of these plants possess antioxidant activity and could be used as a natural antioxidant ingredient in food and drug industries.

        In recent years, some reports have been presented about the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of some  root essential oils of  Achillea species. This research carried out in order to evaluating of oil yield, phytochemical variation and antioxidant activity of root essential oils of Achillea millefolium L. and Achillea biebersteinii Afan. These plants were collected in June 2016 from Dogaheh region of Rudbar (1700 m) in Gilan province. The essential oils were obtained by water distillation method (Clevenger apparatus) and were analyzed by (GC/MS) .The phenolic contents were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC),total phenols and flavonoids were determined according to the Folin-Ciocalteu procedure and aluminum chloride colorimetric method, respectively. The antioxidant activity of the essential oils was also evaluated by 1, 1 -diphenyl-2 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging technique. The findings showed that the main compounds of the A. millefolium essential oil include :β-thujone (18.83%), δ-cadinene (16.87%) and boneol (14.51%), whereas the most abundant compounds in the A. biebersteiniioil were 1,8-cineol (28.82%), p-cimene (15.12%) and camphor (8.34%). According to results, although the total flavonoid content in Achilleamillefolium (54.75 mg/ml oil) was lower than  A.biebersteinii (72.33 mg/ml oil), it had the highest antioxidant activity (74%).

        مقدمه و هدف: بومادران (Achillea millefolium) یکی از گونه های با ارزش دارویی و صنعتی موجود در مراتع ایران و متعلق به خانواده کاسنی Asteraceae است. این گیاه به طور خودرو در دشت­ها، کنار جاده ها و نواحی کوهستانی می روید. از نظر درمانی التیام دهنده جراحات بوده و به علت دارا بودن تانن و مواد تلخ و عطری بر روی سلسله اعصاب و قلب اثر می نماید. این گیاه در ایران دارای دو زیر گونه شامل elbursensisAchillea millefolium subsp. (بومادران البرزی) وA. millefolium subsp. millefolium (بومادران هزاربرگ) می باشد که از نظر اختصاصات ظاهری بسیار شبیه به هم بوده و تنها از نظر ارتفاع، اندازه و رنگ گل آذین از هم متفاوت هستند. هدف ازاینتحقیق،استخراجوشناسائیترکیبهایتشکیلدهندهاسانسبرگ گونه بومادران زیر گونه البرزی A. millefolium subsp. elbursensis است. روش تحقیق:به منظور نمونه برداری از زیر گونه البرزی در هنگام گلدهی در اوایل تیرماه  در رویشگاه دیزین (3350 متر) برگ­های گیاه مورد نظر در طول یک ترانسکت 100 متری از سه نقطه به طور تصادفی جمع آوری گردید. سپس از هر نمونه گیاهی خشک شده به مدت 2 ساعت اسانس گیری و جهت شناسایی ترکیب­های اسانس از دستگاه کروماتوگرافی متصل به طیف سنج جرمی (GC/MS) استفاده شد. نتایج و بحث: بازدهیاسانسبرگهای گیاه 82/0% (حجمی/وزنی) به دست آمد. تعداد 20 ترکیب اسانس شناسایی شد که دو ترکیب کامازولن 2/69٪، ای-کاریوفیلن4/4٪ و 1و8 سینئول 9/4٪، ترکیبات اصلی و مهم در زیرگونه البرزی بودند. توصیه کاربردی/ صنعتی: با توجه به نتایج حاصل از این تحقیق زیر گونه البرزی منبع غنی و منحصر به فرد کامازولن است که به عنوان یک ذخیره ژنتیکی بومی باید در محیط طبیعی حفظ شود و تدابیری جهت کشت و انبوه سازی آن فراهم گردد.

        Bracon hebetor say bee is one of the most important biological control factors that can be effective in controlling larvae of lepidoptera pests such as Helicoverpa armigera hubner at acceptable economic level. The present review was aimed at studying probable adverse effects of Achillea millefolium, Lavandula angustifolia, and Mentha piperita plants extracts on adult insect of the B. hebetor bee. The bee was grown on last instar larvae of Ephestia kueheniella Zell. All bioassay experiments were carried out at temperature of 26±1 °C and relative humidity of 60±5, and under photoperiod conditions of 16 hours of lightness and 8 hours of darkness. Findings of the study indicated that spearmint plant had the highest lethal effect on adult insect of B. hebetor bee in fumigant and contact toxicities and other plants, respectively, Achillea millefolium, Lavandula angustifolia, and Mentha piperita had the least lethal effect on adult insect of B. hebetor bee in fumigant and contact toxicities. The estimated LC50 value for spearmint plant at 48 hours was 6 microliters/ml in fumigant toxicity and 3.2 microliter/ml in contact toxicity. Repellency effect of spearmint, Achillea millefolium, Lavandula angustifolia, and Mentha piperita plants extracts was studied on adult insect using tube -Y olfactory-meter device. Cotton wool soaked with the extract was placed at one end of the device and the other end was closed with web and the insects were released in the main branch. Each iteration of the experiment was conducted on 20 insects. Results of analysis of variance (ANOVA) of the data related to repellency effect of the studied extracts indicated that being a stronger repellant compared to other two extracts, spearmint extract with lower concentration can repel adult insects of B. hebetor bee.
