In this study, we tested whether the addition of fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) of edible oils would influence the herbicidal effect of the essential oils (EO) of fiber hemp and peppermint (Mentha×piperitaL.) against common lambsquarters, barnyardgrass, and corn. The herbicidal properties of a 2.5% concentration of each EO in water mixtures with FAME were evaluated as sprays in a pot experiment. The oil-FAME mixtures showed phytotoxic effects against common lambsquarters and barnyardgrass expressed by a reduction in plant length and aboveground and root biomass, as measured three weeks after foliar spraying. Corn was the most tolerant species to the tested mixtures. Sunflower FAME alone was safe on corn but reduced the growth of weeds. Peppermint EO alone was the most phytotoxic on all tested species. In conclusion, the mixture of peppermint EO with oilseed rape FAME was the best treatment; however, improvement onCh. albumwould be desirable for commercial-level control.

“…It is known that the essential oil quantity and quality in raw materials depends on a plant organs proportion, age, climatic conditions, agricultural techniques, extra nutrition, degree of contamination and protection systems. In Brazil, research by Costa et al (2013) with colleagues revealed that various organic amendments sources and influence of doses on plants and essential oil biomass manufacture, changes in menthone, pulegone and menthyl acetate quantitative composition were observed in essential oil chemical composition, although menthol indices were stable. Growth regulators at application on a green leaf differently influence pepper mint essential oil productivity and qualitative characteristics.…”

Quantitative and qualitative composition of essential oils of peppermint breeds Lebedinaya Pesnya, Lubenchanka, Lidiya, Ukrainskaya Perechnaya, Mama, Chornolista was investigated before and after clonal microreproduction by the method of isolated tissues and bodies culture in vitro. Methods of essential oil steam distillation, capillary gas chromatography and statistical analysis were used in the research. It is established that increase in essential oil quantity was observed for peppermint breeds on which reproduction and improvement іn vіtro technology was applied. As a result of clonal microreproduction of peppermint plants in culture іn vіtro on nutrient medium Murasige and Skug, in which the growth regulators 0.75 mg/l of 6-benzylaminopurine, 0.1 mg/l of adenine, 0.05 mg/l of indolil-3-acetic acid and 0.5 mg/l of gibberellins acid were added and virocide Ribavirin in concentration 10 mg/l, improvement was obtained in comparison with vegetatively reproduced plants; increase in essential oil quantity per hectare was established for the following breeds; Chornolista by 54.2%, Lebedinaya pesnya by 38.2%, Ukrainskaya Perechnaya by 36.7%, Mama by 28.5%, Lubenchanka by 17.1% and Lidiya by 11.6%. For oil content the highest indices were noted for Lubenchanka, Mama and Lebedinaya Pesnya peppermint breeds with product yield 4.02%, 3.98% and 3.84% respectively. It was established that the essential oil component composition in non-clonal peppermint plants raw materials and plants-regenerants after culture in vitro is variable depending on breed. Limonene, cineole, menthone, menthofuran, iso-menthone, menthyl acetate, β-caryophyllene, iso-menthol, menthol, pulegone, germacren, piperitone, carvone were identified in peppermint essential oil. High content of menthol, low content of carvone, piperitone, pulegone (except for Chornolista, Ukrainskaya Perechnaya breeds) and menthofuran (except for Chornolista, Ukrainskaya Perechnaya and Lubenchanka breeds) are characteristic for Ukrainian selection peppermint investigated breeds. A clear tendency to menthol and menthone content ratio increase is observed in plants which were improved in conditions іn vіtro. Pulegone was not detected in essential oil samples of Lebedinaya Pesnya, Lidiya and Mama breeds. Biochemical markers of Lebedinaya Pesnya, Lubenchanka, Mama breeds, which differentiate them within the group of investigated breeds, are higher limonene, piperitone and menthol pool; for Ukrainskaya Perechnaya and Chornolista breeds – pulegone, cineole and menthone; for Lidiya breed – iso-menthone.

Essential oils and other aromatic compounds from peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) are widely used for their medicinal and aromatherapeutic properties in health care, traditional medicines, in preparing pharmaceuticals and cosmetics or for culinary purposes. The present study evaluated the variation of certain physiological indices (rate of photorespiration-E; stem dry matter-SDM; leaf dry matter content-LDM; chlorophyll molecules Chl; rate of photosynthesis-PSN) and quality of essential oil from peppermint cultivated under controlled environmental conditions based on Hoagland nutrient solution with addition of P and K. It was recorded the variation of physiological indexes, in relation with Hoagland solution changes. Accordingly, for rate of photorespiration was found a medium positive correlation with potassium (r = 0.672), and a strong relationship with chlorophyll (r =-0.841). Stem dry matter and phosphorus were strong negative correlated (r =-0.898). The leaf dry matter was very strong negative (r =-0.999) influenced by P, and weak correlated with K (r = 0.536). Chlorophyll was very strong and negative influenced by K (r =-0.966). The rate of photosynthesis and stem dry matter were weak correlated (r =-0.441). PSN and chlorophyll were very strong negative correlated (r =-0.966), and contrary the rate of photorespiration was strongly and positive correlated with PSN (r = 0.952). K had a strong and positive influence on PSN (r = 0.866). Amid these interdependencies of the nutrition conditions and physiological indices were identified high levels of special compounds in the peppermint essential oil: menthone 17%, menthol 33%, izometil acetate 5%, limonene 2%, pulegone 1.8% and from sesquiterpenes was determined β-caryophyllene with a 1.2% concentration.
