Abstract
Lippia turbinata (Verbenaceae), "poleo," is an aromatic shrub native to Argentina, Chile, and Paraguay. Traditionally used as food and medicine, it exhibits a great polymorphism and essential oil (EO) variability. This study analyzes the EO profile of the different populations of L. turbinata distributed throughout Argentina through a meta-analysis comparing their chemical composition of EOs reported in the literature. The meta-analysis comparison with available literature suggests the existence of chemotypes within the species that may correlate with infraspecific genetic differences, geographical origin of the plants, phenological stage, soil, and stress conditions, among other factors. This analysis reveals that the most frequent and abundant compounds are limonene, carvone, β-caryophyllene, and its derivative oxide. This approach of multivariate statistical analyses enables to compare EO profiles of different populations and identify critical thresholds for selecting chemotypes to optimize the species' applications in the food, pharmacology, and agriculture industries.
期刊介绍:
ChemistryOpen is a multidisciplinary, gold-road open-access, international forum for the publication of outstanding Reviews, Full Papers, and Communications from all areas of chemistry and related fields. It is co-owned by 16 continental European Chemical Societies, who have banded together in the alliance called ChemPubSoc Europe for the purpose of publishing high-quality journals in the field of chemistry and its border disciplines. As some of the governments of the countries represented in ChemPubSoc Europe have strongly recommended that the research conducted with their funding is freely accessible for all readers (Open Access), ChemPubSoc Europe was concerned that no journal for which the ethical standards were monitored by a chemical society was available for such papers. ChemistryOpen fills this gap.
