“…Camphor (12.0 – 30.0%) was determined as a major constituent in the oils 35 – 40 (detailed composition of the oil 39 is presented in Table ). Camphor is one of the most frequently found main components in EOs of A. vulgaris native to various word countries . Oils 41 – 44 attributed to the same subcluster were characterized by major compound one of the davanones isomers, davanone (7.0 – 27.9%, numbers 41, 43, and 44) or davanone B (16.1%, Table , sample 42).…”

“…A. vulgaris synthesizes many bioactive compounds, such as terpenoids, sesquiterpene lactones, flavonoid glycosides, coumarins, carotenoids, resins, alkaloids, and polysaccharides. Essential oil (EO) makes a significant contribution to plant biological activity as well, and for that reason the chemical composition was a subject of many studies (and references cited therein). The most important and characteristic components of mugwort oils are α ‐, β ‐pinene, myrcene, phellandrene, cis ‐, trans ‐thujone, camphor, 1,8‐cineole, artemisia ketone, borneol, verbenone, caryophyllene and its oxide, isobornyl isobutyrate, artemisia alcohol, chrysanthenol, cis‐, trans ‐chrysanthenyl acetate, lyratol, α ‐humulene, davanone B, and elemol ( Table ).…”

Compositional variability of mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris L.) essential oils has been investigated in the study. Plant material (over ground parts at full flowering stage) was collected from forty-four wild populations in Lithuania. The oils from aerial parts were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC(FID) and GC/MS. In total, up to 111 components were determined in the oils. As the major constituents were found: sabinene, 1,8-cineole, artemisia ketone, both thujone isomers, camphor, cis-chrysanthenyl acetate, davanone and davanone B. The compositional data were subjected to statistical analysis. The application of PCA (Principal Component Analysis) and AHC (Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering) allowed grouping the oils into six clusters. AHC permitted to distinguish an artemisia ketone chemotype, which, to the best of our knowledge, is very scarce. Additionally, two rare cis-chrysanthenyl acetate and sabinene oil types were determined for the plants growing in Lithuania. Besides, davanone was found for the first time as a principal component in mugwort oils. The performed study revealed significant chemical polymorphism of essential oils in mugwort plants native to Lithuania; it has expanded our chemotaxonomic knowledge both of A. vulgaris species and Artemisia genus.

The chemical composition of the aerial and root essential oils, hydrodistilled from Artemisia absinthium L. and Artemisia vulgaris L. (wild-growing populations from Serbia), were studied by gas chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance. During the storage of plant material under controlled conditions, a significant decrease of essential oil yields (isolated directly after drying and after 1 year of storage) and significant differences in their chemical compositions were observed. A possible mechanism for the observed oil component interconversion has been discussed. The noticeable differences in the chemical composition of the oils isolated from roots and aerial parts of A. absinthium and A. vulgaris were also correlated with the diverging biosynthetic pathways of volatiles in the respective plant organs. The antimicrobial activities against the common human pathogens of all of the isolated oils were tested according to National Committee on Clinical Laboratory Standards. The oils showed a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against the tested strains. Therefore, these oils can be used as flavor and fragrance ingredients.

The composition of the essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation from the aerial parts of several populations of Artemisia campestris L. (Asteraceae), collected from four areas of south-eastern of Tunisia (Bengardane, Benikhdache, Jerba and Tataouine), was analysed by GC-MS. Thirteen to fifteen components were identified in each sample, representing more than 95% of the total oil. All samples were dominated by the presence ofˇ-pinene (24.2-27.9%), p-cymene (17.4-22.3%) and˛-pinene (4.1-11.0%), representing more than 45% of the total oil. The distribution of other components in the different extracts was qualitatively and quantitatively irregular. The variability of the composition can be attributed to the climatic and geographical conditions among areas.
