Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Essential oil is synthesised in oil cells and oil cavities distributed in the rhizome tissues of Homalomena aromatica.
- Observation Larger oil cavities (521 ± 59.4 μm) of the rhizome synthesise essential oil and resin.
- Observation Smaller oil cells (67.2 ± 7.4 μm) of the rhizome synthesise only essential oil.
- Observation Oil cavities are densely present in the inner ground tissue region of the rhizome.
- Observation Oil cells are abundant in the cortex of the rhizome.
- Observation The oil of Homalomena aromatica is dominated by linalool at 44.18%–61.4%.
- Observation Terpinene‐4‐ol follows linalool as a major oil constituent of Homalomena aromatica at 6.45%–13.16%.
- Association Major oil constituents of Homalomena aromatica negatively correlate with rhizome thickness.
- Association Major oil constituents of Homalomena aromatica significantly decrease in thick rhizome (TR) samples.
- Recommendation NR grade rhizomes of Homalomena aromatica are better than TR grade rhizomes for higher oil yield.
