The Effects of Different Harvest Dates on Essential Oil Content and Composition in Chaste Tree (Vitex agnus-castus L.)

Abstract

In the study, essential oil yield and content of Vitex agnus-castus L., belonging Verbenaceae family and an important species for Turkey, was determined. Species collected from Sütçüler-Çandır (Isparta) in 2011 was hydro distilled by Clevenger apparatus for 3 h and essential oil yield was identified as %. Essential oil components were determined by GC-MS. Essential oil yield of “Hayıt” was identified 0,263 % in flowering time and 0,285 in fruit maturing time. According to GC-MS results, dominant components were αpinen (26,99 %), 1,8-cineol (14,20 %) and trans-caryophyllene (9,13 %) in flowering time and 1,8-cineol (28,34 %), α-pinen (26,96%) and sabinene (16,36 %) were in fruit maturing time. Results were given by comparing of studies in the literature done on the same species.
