Abstract

The purpose of present study was to understand the background knowledge, benefits, applicability and important medicinal properties of selected plants of pycnocycla, oliveria decumbens and anvillea that the three essential oil plants are available in different parts of the world and consists of different variability in leaves, essential oil content, etc. Moreover, they are seven species of plant pycnocycla, two species of anvillea and oliveria consists of one species alone are reviewed and their effective utilization of all the parts of the plants, i.e., radiate being utilized in folk medicine to treat various infectious diseases and may contribute to the development of novel antimicrobial agents for the treatment of infections caused by these drug-resistant microorganisms (in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo antitumor activity for both compounds) are reported by several researchers. Hence, It is important to underline that, the information survey being made in this review may generate a new avenue in the fields of pharmaceutical, etc. for drug discovery and the efficiency of its essential oil and applicability for several purposes like, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, disorders, diseases controls, diseases management and beauty cosmetics, etc are reviewed and discussed in depth herein this review article.
