Abstract
The chemical composition of oil from two clones of Origanum vulgare ssp. gracile and ssp. virens was determined. Forty compounds were identified by GC and GC/MS in both oils. The oils from O. vulgare ssp. gracile and O. vulgare ssp. virens were characterized by high levels of sabinene (6.5–26.0%) and germacrene D (13.7–25.7%).
