Microscopy and chemical composition of healthy and resinous wood from the agarwood-producing species, Aqualaria beccariana

Aquilaria beccariana is a vulnerable Malaysian agarwood-producing species due to illegal harvesting and indiscriminate deforestation. Despite its current conservation status, the chemical profiling of this valuable species is seemingly non-existent. The current study aimed to evaluate the morphologi...

Aquilaria beccariana is a vulnerable Malaysian agarwood-producing species due to illegal harvesting and indiscriminate deforestation.

The current study aimed to evaluate the morphological characteristics of A. beccariana wood and identify the volatile chemical compounds of its wood and essential oil.

The FESEM analysis revealed that vessel pits were distinct in the healthy wood samples but hardly visible in the resinous wood sample.

The major compounds were kessane, α-longipinene, α-curcumene, eudesmol, and epi-α-bisabolol. Approximately 32 compounds were identified in the essential oil sample, comprising 36.69 of sesquiterpenes and 49.58 of sesquiterpenoids. The principal compounds were 7-epi-γ-eudesmol, γ-cadinene, allo-aromadendrene, kessane, and nor-ketoagarofuran.
