Abstract
Two wild mint taxa Mentha longifolia L. Hudson subsp. typhoides (Briq) Harley var. calliantha (Stapf) Briq. (M.L. calliantha) and Mentha longifolia (L.) Hudson subsp. typhoides (Briq) Harley var. typhoides (M.L. typhoides) naturally growing in Mus province, Turkiye were cultivated in the experimental field of Mus Alparslan University in 2020 and 2022 growing seasons to determine essential oil content and compositions. According to the GC-MS analyses, total of 28 components were determined in the M.L. calliantha variety, with the pulegone (29.06%), caryophyllene oxide (14.28%), piperitone oxide (7.85%), thymol (5.98%), piperitenone (5.24%), β-linalool (5.23%), and linalyl acetate (4.28%) as main component. In the M.L. typhoides variety, 28 components were determined, and the main components were observed as piperitenone oxide (31.57%), carvacrol (12.97%), linalool (11.63%), cis piperitone oxide (9.98%), α-pinene (5.51%) and borneol (3.44%).
