There are three species of the Micromeria plant in Iran, one of which is
Micromeria persica. Different species of Micromeria has been used in
traditional medicine. The current study deals with identifying chemical
compounds of Micromeria persica populations in four regions of Fars province in
Iran. These regions are Kuh-e Zireh, Firuzabad, Bezyn defile in Darab and Ghir
to Firuzabad. First, the aerial parts of Micromeria persica collected as
samples were dried. Then, the essence of the dried samples was extracted by
water distillation in the Clevenger machine, and identification of compounds
was made using the GC/MS machine. In Kuh-e Zireh, Firuzabad, Bezyn defile in
Darab and Ghir to Firuzabad regions, the numbers of recognized compounds were
30, 45, 50 and 25 respectively.  The main
essence compounds of the four examined populations were Germacrene D,
Bicyclogermacrene, spathulenol, and δ-cadinene. Geographical position and ecological parameters of habitat, such as
height, annual rainfall, and climate, can change the quality and quantity of
the essential oil’s compounds in Micromeria persica.
