This study was conducted in order to identify and compare essential oil compounds in different aerial parts of Artemisia sieberi. Plants sampled at random in full flowering stage in a CR (completely randomized) design with three replications. Analysis on leaves/stems revealed 55 identified compounds, representing 97.66% of the oil with a-pinene being the main component (34.33%); other significant components in the leaves/stems include: α-amorphene, β-pinene, δ-cadinene, α-cadinene, methyl cyclopentan. For flowers/fruits (F/F) 29 compounds were identified, representing 96.96% of the oil with the main component being α-amorphene (15.86%) and α-pinene (12.34%) being the second main component. A number of other significant components found in fiowers/fruits were α-campholene aldehyde, isopinocarveol, β-caryophylene, calarene, δ-cadinene. Several compounds (some with significant compositions) were found in this variety ofA. sieberi which are not reported in the previous literature.展开更多
