Chemical composition and insecticidal activities of the essential oil of aster ageratoides flowering aerial parts
Water-distilled essential oil from Aster ageratoides Turcz. (Compositae) flowering aerial parts was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for the first time. Forty-three compounds, accounting for 96.4 % of the oil, were identified. The main compounds found were α- terpineol (10...
