“…In agreement with other reports (Hoda et al, 2011;Singh & Ganesha Rao, 2009;Singh, 2008;Jeliazkova et al, 1999), in our experiment KNO 3 fertilizer increased fresh matter yield by an average of 60.5% compared with the control. However, there were no significant difference between control with 1.5 and 3 with 6 g l -1 (Table 3).…”

Artemisia dracunculus L. (tarragon), known as "tarkhun" in Iran, is a perennial herb in the Asteraceae family, which has a long history of use in culinary traditions. A factorial experiment based on the Randomized Completely Block Design with three replications was used. The treatments were performed at four level of foliar applications of Ca(NO 3 ) 2 and KNO 3 fertilizers (including control (sprayed with water), 1.5, 3 and 6 gl -1 ). This experiment was conducted at field conditions in a farm in "Ray" in 2010. The results showed that Ca(NO 3 ) 2 application significantly increased plant height, fresh and dry matter yield by an average of 10.1, 35.8 and 33.5%, respectively. Essential oil content was not significantly affected with Ca(NO 3 ) 2 fertilization. Nevertheless, Ca(NO 3 ) 2 application increased essential oil content by an average of 64.4% compared with the control. Ca (NO 3 ) 2 foliar application increased N and Ca content of leaf tissues. The concentrations of P, K, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu significantly affected by Ca(NO 3 ) 2 levels. Plant height, fresh and dry matter yield, essential oil content and yield significantly increased with KNO 3 foliar application by an average of 4.4, 60.5, 50.4, 42.5 and 119.6%, respectively compared with the control. The KNO 3 application significantly increased N, K, Fe, Mn and Zn concentrations compared with the control. Also, leaf P, Ca, Mg and Cu contents were influenced by KNO 3 fertilization. The interaction between Ca(NO 3 ) 2 and KNO 3 treatments was significant in leaf N, K, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu contents.

“…Peppermint can also be used as nutritional supplement in livestock feed (Hosoda et al, 2005), while the essential oils and its components are used for the control of various pests (insects, bacteria and fungi) in crops (Montes-Belmont and Carvajal, 1998;Ibrahim et al, 2001;Imai et al, 2001). Menthol (26-30%), menthone (14-21%) and menthofuran (5-11%) are the main components of peppermint essential oil (Zheljazkov et al, 1999). Several other constituents such as isomenthone, eucalyptol, pulegone, limenone, 3-octanol are also present (Chialva et al, 1993;Zheljazkov et al, 2009).…”

Peppermint (Mentha × piperita L.) is perennial plant cultivated for essential oil production. In the present study, field experiments were conducted to determine the performance of peppermint under different cultivation systems for two consecutive growing periods in 2015 and 2016. The effects of environmental conditions on peppermint biomass yield and oil content was also evaluated. The experiments were carried out according to randomized complete block design with five replications per cultivation system. The results of the present study indicate that the total aboveground dry weight and dry leaves biomass were affected by cultivation system and year. For both growing seasons, the highest values were found under the conventional farming system. In contrast, oil content was approximately 14% higher in organic system than in conventional system. Moreover, oil content differed by year, with higher values being observed in 2015 comparing to 2016. Both oil content and biomass yield were positively affected by high temperatures. The results from this study demonstrated that both environmental conditions and the cultivation systems affect the biomass and oil content in peppermint crop.
