Geographic variation in the essential oil monoterpenes of Liriodendron tulipifera L

The monoterpene component of Liriodendron tulipifera L. (Magnoliaceae) essential oils was quantitatively analysed in branch samples collected from an Ohio provenance test of 11 geographic seed sources representing the natural range of the species. Mean monoterpene composition of the essential oil is...

Description
Summary:The monoterpene component of Liriodendron tulipifera L. (Magnoliaceae) essential oils was quantitatively analysed in branch samples collected from an Ohio provenance test of 11 geographic seed sources representing the natural range of the species. Mean monoterpene composition of the essential oil is described and significant differences in the monoterpene composition among geographic sources are discussed.
