    Phytochemical screening, antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal properties of the Cymbopogon citratus methanolic extract
    (Elsevier, 2025) Nacer, Salah Neghmouche; Wassima, Lakhdari; Boussebaa, Walid; Abadi, Abderrezzak; Benyahia, Ibtissem; Mouhoubi, Djawahir; Ladjal, Amel; Hammi, Hamida; Bachir, Hakim; Dehliz, Abderrahmene
    In this work, the aerial parts of Cymbopogon citratus, harvested in Algeria, were analyzed as potential sources of biologically active compounds. The phytochemical composition, the content of total phenols and flavonoids in the methanolic extract of this plant, as well as its antioxidant, antibacterial, and antifungal capacities, were evaluated. The methanolic extract had phenolic compounds and flavonoids, with levels of 92.82 µg GAE/mg Dry weight and 58.98 µg QE/mg Dry weight, respectively. Furthermore, the methanolic extract exhibited moderate antioxidant activity as assessed by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS (2,2′azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiozoline-6-sulfonic acid) disodium salt radical), and β-carotene tests, while its antimicrobial activity was tested against four bacterial strains. Thus, a MBC/MIC ratio of 2 indicates that the extract exhibits bactericidal activity against Escherichia coli. Additionally, the extract exhibited antifungal activity against Thielaviopsis paradoxa, Alternaria sp., and Fusarium solani, with inhibition rates ranging from 50.59 % to 70.20 %. LC-MS analysis identified a variety of components, including chlorogenic acid (17.40 %), catechin (34.64 %), salicin (9.55 %), and curcumin (8.97 %), which are likely responsible for the observed activities. This study demonstrated that the aerial parts of Cymbopogon citratus offer a cost-effective source of natural compounds with bactericidal and antifungal activity, offering potential applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries

    Chemical composition and bioactivity of essential oil against the green peach aphid (Myzus persicae)
    (Springer, 2022) Dehliz, Abderrahmene; Lakhdari, Wassima; Mlik, Randa; Chahbar, Nora; Acheuk, Fatma; Mekhadmi, Nour El Houda; Benyahia, Ibtissem; Fethallah, Rabab; Hammi, Hamida; Berrekbia, Mohammed; Badjadi, Zeineb
    The present experiment was conducted to elucidate the chemical composition of essential oil (EO) of a native spontaneous plant, Cotula cinerea Del., in southeastern Algeria and to evaluate its insecticidal effect on the Green Peach Aphid (GPA) Myzus persicae Sulzer. GC–MS and GC-FID analyses showed that this plant was characterized by 35 components, representing eight major constituents, i.e., santolina triene (11.55%), sabinene (5.86%), cineol (6.21%), α-thujone (22.91%), (R)-camphor (7.50%), cis-sabinyl acetate (6.41%), carveol (7.68%), and ipsenol (4.60%). The considered essential oil was characterized by a clear predominance of hydrocarbon compounds chiefly monoterpenes (35.63%), oxygenated monoterpenes (64%), and sesquiterpenes (0.35%). Insecticidal assays showed that the EO was toxic against M. persicae adults recording 75.95% of mortality in the 3rd dose with a lethal concentration (LC50) equal to 302.4 µl where the lethal time (LT50) was 91.6 h. Also, it has a significant repellency showing a high rate in the 2nd dose (64.6%) with a highly significant difference (p = 0.000). As well as its inhibitory effect on the egg-laying where it has greatly reduced the reproduction potential of M. persicae adults. Obtained data support the possibility to develop C. cinerea oil, especially component specification, as a new natural bio-insecticide

    Inhibitory effect of Trichoderma harzianum on mycelial growth of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici and Alternaria solani
    (Springer Netherlands, 2018) Lakhdari, Wassima; Dehliz, Abderrahmene; Mlik, Randa; Hammi, Hamida; Benlamoudi, Wiam; Acheuk, Fatma; Doumandji-Mitiche, Bahia B.
    Tomato is one of the most important fruit vegetables for human consumption in Algeria. In recent years, the cultivation of this plant is experiencing a very rapid development. However, this speculation is confronted with several problems including plant health. The purpose of this study is to find biological ways to introduce them into an integrated control program against tomato pests and have an organic agriculture that can increase the production of this culture. Direct confrontation test of an indigenous strain of Trichoderma harzianum with two phytopathogenic fungi that are isolated from tomato leaves (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici and Alternaria solani) was carried at 26 °C on an artificial culture medium (PDA). It could be demonstrated that T. harzianum inhibited mycelia growth of the two fungi with more than 40% and only after 4 days of incubation. Statistical analysis confirms that T. harzianum had a significant effect of antagonism against the tested pathogens mentioned before with P value 0.02 and 0.04, respectively. Beyond this period, and at the end of the sixth day, T. harzianum occupied the colonies of fungus and began to sporulate marking a very important myco-parasitic power. Indeed, a percent inhibition greater than 50% was recorded into the both fungi
