Morphological Variability and Essential Oil Composition of four Ocimum basilicum L. cultivars
Abstract
This study characterized the morphological variability as well as essential oil composition of four sweet basil cultivars growing in south-eastern Poland. The cultivars displayed a wide diversity of morphological and chemical characteristics. Oil content of the tested plants varied from 0.91 % to 1.75 % in air-dry herbage. The essential oil composition was analyzed by means of GC-MS and GC-FID techniques. Sixty six components were found, representing 100 % of the essential oil. Linalool was the most abundant component (29.6 %-77.5 %), followed by methyl chavicol (0.3 %-32.5 %), eugenol (null to 27.6 %), (E)- methyl cinnamate (null to 11.2 %), 1,8-cineole (1.0 %-9.4 %), α-cadinol (2.8 %-6.5 %) and germacrene D (2.1 %-4.1 %).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
