Effect of altitude on essential oil composition and on glandular trichome density in three "Nepeta" species ("N. sessilifolia", "N. heliotropifolia" and "N. fissa")

Effect of altitude on essential oil composition and on glandular trichome density in three "Nepeta" species ("N. sessilifolia", "N. heliotropifolia" and "N. fissa")

In the current study, the trichome density and the chemical variation of the hydrodistillated essential oils were determined along the altitudinal gradient in Nepeta sessilifolia, N. heliotropifolia, and N. fissa. The capitate glandular trichomes were predominant in all populations studied. Denser l...
