13.17.6 Damping Off
Causative agent of this disease is Pythium sp. The fungus attacks at the seedling
stage. Symptoms of disease appear in the form of necrotic spots and rings causing
collapse of the seedlings. Soil is sterilized with Formalin (2%). Beside this seed is
treated with Dithane [44].
13.17.7 Thrips
It is caused by Thrips tabaci. This pest results in distorted and discolored plant tissue. Thrips use rapidly growing tissues for their nourishment. Resultantly, the leaves
become distorted. Leaves roll and fall off. Color break is seen in the petals due to
feeding by thrips before opening of buds. Most species of wild marigold are resistant to the pest however, some are affected by pests. For example, cultivated forms
of Tagetes erecta L. has some serious pests (Red spider mite and root knot nema-
tode) whereas, at the same site these pests have not been found on T. minuta L
[11, 23].
Black Foot Disease This disease was rst reported in 2011in Fars province of
Iran. The disease manifests itself in form of yellowing, root and foot rot, drying of
leaves, and ultimately the death of plant. In a research conducted to nd the causative agent of this disease. For this purpose the infected plants were collected and
transferred to laboratory. The samples were then disinfected by using 0.5% NaClO
solution, and cultured on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA). The pH of medium was
maintained at 4.5 with 0.5% lactic acid. Morphological studies revealed the pathogen to be Cylindrocarpon destructans. For further conrmation DNA was extracted
from the sample and studied using PCR. Results showed 100% similarity index
with Cylindrocarpon destructans. Further pathogenicity tests were carried out. The
pathogenicity tests were done with a suspension of 1×106 conidia per ml homogenized in sterile water. The symptoms on infected plants were similar to that was
observed previously.
13.18 Nutrient Deciency Symptoms inWild Marigold
The deciency of primary and secondary nutrients results in different symptoms
that are discussed below.

13.18.1 Nitrogen Deciency
As the result of nitrogen deciency, the older leaves become chlorotic. They may
show purple to red discoloration [21].
13.18.2 Phosphorous Deciency
Stunted growth and deep green foliage are the symptoms of this deciency. Some
plants may show purple coloration. Chlorosis followed by necrosis takes place in
older leaves. Abnormal elongation of roots take place. Leaves lose their dark green
color and the underside of leaves appears red and yellow in color. These symptoms
spread across the leaf with older leaves falling off [18].
13.18.3 Magnesium Deciency
Chlorosis among the veins takes place. In many leaves before chlorosis red and
purple pigmentation starts appearing. Chlorosis starts from the tip and spreads
across the leaf in a V-shape formation. After chlorosis necrosis takes place.
13.18.4 Sulfur Deciency
This deciency results in change in size and shape of owers, turning to pale yellow
in color.
13.18.5 Iron Deciency
It results in white appearance of overall leaf blade.
13.18.6 Boron Deciency
It has major impact on owers. The owers are incomplete, have fewer number of
petals, the petals suddenly wilts, notches appearing in ower stems indicating
missing tissues. It results in death of roots. Chlorosis of young leaves also takes
place (Table13.3).

ocimene, Dihydrotagetone, Tagetone, Tagetenone. Through oil extraction researchers have extracted various chemical compounds from stem, leaves and ower [18].
329
13.21.2 Constituents ofLeaf
Thirteen compounds were investigated from leaf oil which was about 96.9%.
Ddihydrotagetone is about 17.6%, cis-beta-ocimene is 11.9% and borneol is 11.1%
[18, 22].
13.21.3 Constituents ofFlower
As far as the composition of various constituents in ower is concerned, transOcimenon is about 27%, cis- beta-ocimine is about 26% and cis-ocimenone is about
17.6% [18, 22].
13.21.4 Constituents ofseed
Dihydrotagetone and benzoic acid 4- hydroxy-methylester makes about (21%) and
(33.5%) are main constituents of seed respectively [18, 22].
13.21.5 Constituents ofCapitula
Researchers have found that capitula contains many components e.g., limonene that
shares 2.1–6.2%, Beta ocimine constitutes about 15–20%, alpha aterpinolene makes
15.6% of capitula. Similarly, other compounds such as E and Z tagetone makes 2.5
and 4.62% respectively. Piperitenone and piperitone are also constituents of plant’s
capitula [43].
13.22 Quantitative Analysis
From quantitative point of view essential oil from owers contain relatively greater
amount of β-ocimene and tagetenone as compared to the essential oil from the
leaves. Dihydrotagetone is the main component of non-bloomed plants which
decreases when plant blooms contrarily quantity of tagetenone and β-ocimene
increases [27, 46, 47].

13.23 Essential Oil fromTagetes minuta L.
Oil is the one of the most famous products made from wild marigold. Countries all
over the world earn through export of its oil. Medical companies have also produced
many medicines by using different parts of this plant. Many products related to food
have also been produced by wild marigold. It is very protable crop. Almost all
parts of plants can be used for the extraction of essential oil. In 1984, about 1.5tons
was produced annually, which is now between 8 and 15tons perannum with the
estimated amount of (50 USD/kg). However, it had been quite hard to keep the
record of production and market value of the oil due to unknown reasons [45]. Some
countries have set organizations for maintaining selling price of oil e.g., an
organization in India named Floracopeia Aromatic Treasures, has set that price at
1.07USD/ml. Mountain Rose a herbs company of USA has set rate at 11.75USD
for half ounce, supplying towards South Africa and France. Whereas 8.20£ is set by
(Hermitage soil) that is a main supplier of special essential oils in the UK since
1979. Egypt and Zimbabwe are identied as world’s major producers of T. minuta
L. essential oil by International Trade Center. Some other countries like Nepal,
Brazil, India, Madagascar, Ukraine, Australia, Chile, Peru, Bolivia, Morocco,
Ecuador, Kenya and Paraguay are also the major producers of essential oil extracted
from T. minuta L.[13].
13.24 Impact ofDrying Processing onYield ofEssential Oil
Different drying methods can signicantly enhance the production of wild marigold
(Tagetes minuta L.) essential oil. Swati etal. (2020) conducted a research in which
three dry processing methods were investigated. Hydrodistillation was used to
obtain essential oil which was later analyzed by GC-MS.In this research different
time periods (0, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72h) were used. Results showed that sun
drying for 72h produced higher yield of essential oil whereas moisture content was
lower. However, these drying treatments didn’t alter the number of essential oil
components which remained nine in total. Major constituents were (Z)-ocimene,
dihydrotagetone, (E) & (Z)-tagetone, and (E) & (Z)-tagetenone. The amount of EO
and the percentage of two of its components (Z)-ocimene and dihydrotagetone were
immensely impacted by various drying methods and time. Sun drying for 60 h
showed higher percentage of (Z)-ocimene and lower amount of dihydrotagetone in
essential oil. However with rise in drying time the percentage of (Z)-ocimene
reduced in essential oil of wild marigold (Tagetes minuta L.) [48].

13.25 Yield andProduction ofEssential Oil
Essential oil of the plant having greater percentage of Z-beta-ocimene i.e., about
35–50% has high rate and demand internationally. According to an estimate in year
2016, the EO of the wils marigold plant showed about 15tons annual production
and it is expected that its market value will reach up to 11.8 USD million by the year
2025 with a CAGR of 7.0% from 2020 to 2025 [20].
13.26 Impact ofNitrogen andSulfur onYield andQuality
ofEssential Oil
Fertilizers plays a crucial role in enhancing yield of crops; however, using excessive
amount of chemical fertilizers contaminates the atmosphere. It is hypothesized that
using nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers signicantly improves the yield and oil quality
of essential oil of Tagetes minuta L.In order to prove this claim an experiment was
carried out in which different concentrations of both fertilizers were employed to
Tagetes minuta L. plants which were then studied for 2years. Using nitrogen at
120kg ha−1 and sulfur at 60kg ha−1 produced higher biomass and essential oil yield
in contrast to control. At 120kg ha−1 of nitrogen and 40kg ha−1 of sulfur it was
found that stomatal density decreased whereas as density of oil glands increased
signicantly. Moreover, the concentration of EO component Z-B-ocimene increased
signicantly at this concentration. So it was concluded that 120kg ha−1 of nitrogen
and 40kg ha−1 of sulfur is best for maximum production of Tagetes minuta L. essen-
tial oil.

to retain humidity in arable farming elds. It is benecial in several ways such as
rapid growth of Tagetes minuta L. shades out other plants that may be of less usage
to farmers. It is often an alternative host for Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in arable
farming system [2]. Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a fungal pathogen that infects variety
of crops. The essential oil of Tagetes minuta L. is also found effective against three
species of common grain pests that are Tribolium castaneum, Rhyzopertha dominica,
and Callosobruchus anali. Thus the spray of wild marigold essential oil can protect
the crops during storage. According to United States Environmental Protection
Agency Tagetes minuta L. essential oil is found to be effective as an acaricide and
an insecticide against variety of pathogens attacking food crops. Thus essential of
wild marigold plays a signicant role in food security by protecting crops in elds
and during storage. Talking about livestock, so 20% concentration of Tagetes minuta
L. essential oil shows 95% efcacy against Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Amblyomma
cajennense and Argas miniatus. This oil has potential to control other livestock tick
species that causes severe economic losses to farmers. Thus using this essential oil
provides an environment friendly approach for production of safe acaricide to milk
and beef in livestock industry [43].
13.36 Myths, Legends, Tales, Folklore andinteresting Facts
Wild marigold is cultivated almost in every part of the world and most of the people
have various myths, tales, songs, saying etc. about them. The available literature
tells that Portuguese introduced marigolds in Subcontinent and since then it is
extensively planted in this region to make oral chain/garlands to use them on
marriages, festivals and for home decoration as well. Particularly, individuals
decorate their homes with marigold on various religion occasions [60]. In some
countries marigold is linked with autumn and death. Whereas somewhere it is
considered special ower of October. It is featured in all saints and souls’ celebrations
in Europe. It is replaced with saffron to color the soul-cakes. In some parts of
Europe, it is used to make garlands along with other owers and twined about
tombstones. In India, people use this ower to make offerings to their gods [13].
According to a dictionary of gardening of Marigold, In the Mexico it is known as
“Flower of death” They consider the marigold ower “Mexican soldiers” who (who
fought against the Spanish conquistadors) spilled their blood. They symbolize
reddish brown patches on the petals with blood. It is used to symbolize a feeling of
despaired love [8, 13].
In Mexico it is symbol of the annual holiday to celebrate and honor the souls of
departed. In an encyclopedia of religious (rites, rituals, and Festivals) it is written
that yellow is the symbol of death among the pre-hispanic people therefore marigolds
are profuse at the Day of the Dead celebration. In England like other owers
