Abstract
In this study, the effects of altitude and soil properties on the essential oil amounts and essential oil components of the Turkish sage (Salvia fruticosa Mill.) plant were investigated. A location in the south of Turkey in the Kaş district of Antalya with altitude ranges of 0-200 m, 300-500 m, and 600-800 m was defined as the study area. During the full flowering period of S. fruticosa, plants and soil samples were collected. The contents of the essential oils of the plants were analyzed using GC-MS. According to theresults obtained, the essential oil content of plants varied between 1.91% and 5.10%. The main component of the essential oils of the plants collected from all study areas was 1,8-cineol, at 44.93%. It was concluded that variations in the proportions of the components limonene and linalool, which are essential oil components of plants, are not only dependent on altitude but also on changes in soil texture and the total CaCO3 content of the soil.
期刊介绍:
The Boletín Latinoamericano y del Caribe de Plantas Medicinales y Aromáticas (BLACPMA), [Latin American and Caribbean Bulletin of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants]; currently edited by the publishing house MS-Editions, is a bi-monthly international publication that publishes original peerreviewed research in the field of medicinal and aromatic plants, with nearly 20 years of experience. BLACPMA is a scientific journal that publishes two types of articles: Reviews (only in English) and Original Articles (Spanish or English), its main lines of action being agronomy, anthropology and ethnobotany, industrial applications, botany, quality and standardization, ecology and biodiversity, pharmacology, phytochemistry, pharmacognosy, regulatory and legislative aspects. While all areas of medicinal plants are welcome and the experimental approaches used can be broad and interdisciplinary; other areas of research that are not mentioned depend on the Editorial Committee for their acceptance.
