چکیده
The Lamiaceae family is of great diversity and variety, with a cosmopolitan distribution. Plants in this are characterized by verticillaster inflorescence, two-lipped open-mouthed tubular corolla, opposite decussate leaves, quadrangular stem, etc. Most the species belonging to aromatic possess essential oils. Origanum vulgare L., also known as Vantulsi or Badri tulsi, an important herb that commonly used for it’s properties. Oregano's leaves flowering parts contain oil glands produce volatile oil, which what gives plant its fragrance. Carvacrol and/or thymol make up majority Oregano, γ-terpenine, p-cymene, linalool, terpenine 4-ol, sabinene hydrate. These constituents primarily responsible oil's antiviral, antiseptic, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antifungal, anticoagulant, energetic action In review article, we shed light on origin, distribution, botanical description, cytological breeding studies, constituents, biological activities, cultivation practices therapeutic values L.

Variability of Essential Oil Composition of Origanum vulgare L. ssp. vulgare Populations from Iran
In this study, the chemical composition of the essential oils (EOs) extracted from aerial parts of native populations of Origanum vulgare ssp. vulgare from Iran was compared by GC and GC/MS. Plants were collected at bloom stage from their natural habitats located in Kaleybar, Sabalan, Meshkin Shahr and Chalus regions, respectively from East Azerbaijan, Ardabil, Ardabil and Mazandaran provinces....
متن کاملChemical composition and antioxidant activity of Origanum vulgare subsp. vulgare essential oil from Iran
Background and Objectives: Essential oils are very complex mixture of components and their composition may vary in different species or varieties or even within the same variety. Origanum vulgare L. subsp. vulgare is one of the most distributed subspecies within the genus Origanum and has been found to be a poor-oil, categorized in cymyl, bornane or sabinyl chemotypes with higher proportion of ...
