Description

A research project funded by the National Science Fund was initiated in 2019 on the EO from the genus Pinus (Pinaceae); P. sylvestris (White pine, Scots pine), P. nigra (Black Pine, Austrian pine), P. mugo (Kleck, Mugo pine), P. heldreichii (Black Wall, Bosnian pine), P. peuce (White pine, Balkan pine), and two species from genus Juniperus (junipers); J. excelsa (Greek juniper) and J. sabina (savin). The research includes phytochemical characterization of the EO and assessment for biopesticidal action on (1) fungal pathogens; (2) aphids; (3) weeds and (4) biological activity. The team includes scientists from Bulgaria, Slovakia and the United States.
