INTRODUCTION: This study investigated the antioxidant, antimicrobial, and insecticidal properties of METHODS: The CN-EO was extracted using a Clevenger apparatus. Its chemical composition was analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Antioxidant activity was evaluated using the DPPH assay, while antimicrobial properties were assessed via the disk diffusion method to measure inhibition zones against various bacterial and fungal strains. Insecticidal activity was tested through bioassays to determine insect mortality and repellency rates. Phylogenetic analysis of DNA sequences was conducted to confirm the species identity. RESULTS: GC-MS analysis identified 24 compounds in CN-EO, with β-Oplopenone (18.66%), Spathulenol (14.90%), and Himachalene (12.47%) as major constituents. CN-EO exhibited strong antioxidant activity (IC CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate the significant potential of Moroccan CN-EO in phytomedicine. It exhibits a wide range of biological activities and shows great promise as a natural antioxidant, antimicrobial agent, antifungal, and insecticide.
