“…Foliar application of salicylic acid under water stress conditions increase EO content on T. kotschyanus . The importance of water management on this type of cultivations is confirmed by numerous studies on combined variables such as drought/manure or nitrogen application, water stress/arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, water stress/different soil fertility systems, irrigation frequency/manure, irrigation frequency /chitosan application and irrigation frequency/mineral fertilization . An interesting study on the effect of irrigation with secondary‐treated effluent, as compared with potable water irrigation, on the composition, biological activities and yield of EO from O. syriacum L. var.…”

Lamiaceae is one of the largest families of flowering plants comprising about 250 genera and over 7,000 species. Most of the plants of this family are aromatic and therefore important source of essential oils. Lamiaceae are widely used as culinary herbs and reported as medicinal plants in several folk traditions. In the Mediterranean area oregano, sage, rosemary, thyme and lavender stand out for geographical diffusion and variety of uses. The aim of this review is to provide recent data dealing with the phytochemical and pharmacological studies, and the more recent applications of the essential oils and the non‐volatile phytocomplexes. This literature survey suggests how the deeper understanding of biomolecular processes in the health and food sectors as per as pest control bioremediation of cultural heritage, or interaction with human microbiome, fields, leads to the rediscovery and new potential applications of well‐known plants.
