Abstract
ABSTRACT The essential oils from the fruits of two different morphological types of T. maxima Miller (I and II), both with the chromosome number 2n=22 (2x), have been characterized. The phenotypic traits of the plants and the results from the analyses of the essential oils by combined GC/MS are reported. The two phenotypes showed similar compositional patterns with limonene (34–27%) and methyl eugenol (59–63%) as main components, indicating that T. maxima I and II represent one chemotype within the genus Thapsia. Neither of the two types contained thapsigargins in the roots.
