Changes of Essential Oil, Photosynthetic Pigments, and Morphological Characteristics of Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) at Different Harvesting Time
Background: Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) is herbaceous perennial plants of Lamiaceae family grown in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Northern Africa. Objective: In this research, the effect of harvesting time was studied on essential oil, photosynthetic pigment, and some morphological charac...

Objective: In this research, the effect of harvesting time was studied on essential oil, photosynthetic pigment, and some morphological characteristics of hyssop. Methods: A Field experiment was carried out during 2015/2016 at the Research farm of Payam Noor University of Marand, Iran.

Conclusion: Overall, the harvesting in full flowering stage was the best time in respect of essential oils content and morphological characteristics in hyssop.http://jmp.ir/article-1-1492-en.html<i>hyssopus officinalis</i>essential oilharvesting stagephytochemical traits |
