AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a process for producing terpene compounds by extracting a pre-metabolite of a bio-active compound from a first plant species and applying it to a second plant species during its growth. The second plant species can be harvested and the terpene compounds extracted. The invention also includes a process for culturing callus cells of the first plant species and using them to produce the pre-metabolite. The invention also includes a composition of matter comprising a floral alcoholic extract of a plant species such as Catharanthus roseus, C. longifolius, C. ovalis, or Vinca minor. The composition can also include other compounds such as carbohydrates, plant nutrients, stabilizers, and amino acids. The technical effects of the invention include the ability to produce terpene compounds in a sustainable and cost-effective manner.

Problems solved by technology

These types of compounds end up in the glands that inhabit the “skin” of plants, and can create biological affects in our bodies when ingested.

Embodiment Construction

[0030]A plant activator composition increases the concentration of terpenes and terpinoids in aromatic plant oils, and hence resulting in an increased concentration of terpenes and terpenoids in the harvested dried plant or fruit. The composition preferably contains one of more bio-active compounds that are optionally extracted from plants selected from one or more of the group consisting of mango, citrus (including grapefruit), Catharanthus roseus, C. longifolius, C. ovalis, Vinca minor, Phaseolus vulgaris and Pelargonium odoratissimum. Not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the plant extracts described herein contain a potent mixture of terpenoids and terpene compounds and related enzymes that are enhance the plant metabolism to increase terpene and terpenoids production. Hence, the plant extracts disclosed herein, as well as combinations of synthetic compounds of similar composition, will be referred to as bio-active terpenoid pre-metabolites.

Abstract

A plant activator composition increases the concentration of terpenes a terpenoids in aromatic plant oils, and hence resulting in an increased concentration terpene and terpenoids in the harvested dried plant or fruit. The composition contains one of more bio-active compounds that are optionally extracted from plants selected from one or more of the group consisting of mango, citrus (including grapefruit), Catharanthus roseus and Pelargonium odoratissimum, but alternatively may include one or more synthetic compounds selected from the group consisting of geranyl acetate, geraniol, beta-sitosterol, alpha-amyrin, beta amyrin, carotenoid, geranyl acetate, alpha-humulene, mevalonate kinase and geranyl. Depending on the type of plant being treated, the formulation is added during watering and feeding in optimum doses during the vegetative growth, flowering, and fruit set and / or swell stages.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims the benefit of priority to the U.S. Provisional Patent Application of the same title that was filed on Dec. 19, 2013, having application No. 61 / 918,442 and is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF INVENTION[0002]The field of inventions is plant feeding compositions, and in particular a plant feed for increasing the plants synthesis of plant oils and in particular terpenoid compounds, and methods of synthesizing the same via plant cells, and extraction of the same.[0003]Some types of plant oils have terpenes, related terpenoids, including isoprenoid or compounds that contain very interesting odor molecules. More specifically, terpinoids are unsaturated hydrocarbons in aromatic plant resins, which also act as natural preservatives and protectors, and generally consist of repeating units of a 5-carbon structure called isoprene. Many plants incorporate aromatic compounds that produce a plethora of odors...
