Authors' contributions

G.F. conceptualised the study. M.C.K. was involved in the collection of some of the plant material and in the preparation of the extracts used in the biological screening assays. G.F., K.W.W. and T.L. performed the literature search and plant selection. T.L. prepared the plant extracts. M.C.K. was also involved in the fractionation and isolation process in the natural product chemistry laboratory. J.N.E. conceptualised the study in a joint application, and supervised the students and postdoctoral fellow. V.N. supervised determination of acaricidal activity. L.J.M.G. supervised the determination of cytotoxicity. O.T.A. determined the acaricidal activity against adult ticks of R. turanicus. K.W.W. wrote the first draft of the manuscript.
