- Intervention effect Nitrogen treatments reduced essential oil content, with the control having 15% higher value than the mean of nitrogen treatments.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen supply positively affected essential oil yield, with 80 kg N ha−1 giving 40% more than the control.
- Observation Population Papadates had 92% higher dry biomass production than the least yielding population.
- Observation Population Vytina had 25% higher essential oil content than the least yielding population.
- Observation Population Papadates had 57% higher essential oil yield than the least yielding population.
- Observation Population Litochoro had 51% higher essential oil yield than the least yielding population.
- Association Nitrogen levels and populations showed significant interactions for oregano traits.
- Recommendation Nitrogen levels should be specified for each oregano population to optimize productivity.
