“…Comparison of our data with those in the literatures revealed some inconsistencies with previous studies (Lota et al, 2001;Baaliouamer et al, 1988). It may be related to cultivar, rootstock and environmental factors that can influence compositions.…”

potential commercial value because of its attractive and pleasant aroma (Babazadeh, 2013).Also; it is one of the most important orange cultivars used in Iran. Although it is as important cultivar, the leaf components of Shahsavari orange have not been investigated previously. Citrus oils occur naturally in special oil glands in flowers, leaves, peel and juice. These valuable essential oils are composed of many compounds including: terpenes, sesquiterpenes, aldehydes, alcohols, esters and sterols. They may also be described as mixtures of hydrocarbons, oxygenated compounds and nonvolatile residues. Citrus oils are commercially used for flavoring foods, beverages,

“…The method of calculation of the yield was different in the two studies; thus, it is not possible to compare the values. The LEO yield is generally 1.5 to 2 times lower than what is observed in the literature [45][46][47][48]. However, in most publications, the LEO yield value is given in v/w, whereas in our study, it is expressed in g/100 g of leaves.…”

“…No details are given in these articles on the method of measuring the volume of EO; it can only be assumed that, given the accuracy of the provided value (to one decimal point), it was evaluated on the graduated column of the Clevenger where the oil is recovered. Apart from the values, the differences in yield between varieties are sometimes comparable; for example, the cultivar 'Valencia' produces 1.6 times more oil than 'Washington navel' and 1.3 times more oil in our study [45]. Furthermore, it seems that thicker skin cultivars have a lower yield than thinner skin cultivars, although this is calculated with respect to the dry mass of the skin.…”

Orange (Citrus x aurantium var sinensis) is the most widely consumed citrus fruit, and its essential oil, which is made from the peel, is the most widely used in the food, perfume, and cosmetics industries. This citrus fruit is an interspecific hybrid that would have appeared long before our era and would result from two natural crosses between mandarin and pummelo hybrids. This single initial genotype was multiplied by apomictic reproduction and diversified by mutations to produce hundreds of cultivars selected by men essentially based on phenotypic characteristics of appearance, spread of maturity, and taste. Our study aimed to assess the diversity of essential oil composition and variability in the aroma profile of 43 orange cultivars representing all morphotypes. In agreement with the mutation-based evolution of orange trees, the genetic variability tested with 10 SSR genetic markers was null. The oils from peels and leaves extracted by hydrodistillation were analyzed for composition by GC (FID) and GC/MS and for aroma profile by the CATA (Check All That Apply) method by panelists. Oil yield varied between varieties by a factor of 3 for PEO and a factor of 14 for LEO between maximum and minimum. The composition of the oils was very similar between cultivars and was mainly dominated by limonene (>90%). However, small variations were observed as well as in the aromatic profile, with some varieties clearly distinguishing themselves from the others. This low chemical diversity contrasts with the pomological diversity, suggesting that aromatic variability has never been a selection criterion in orange trees.
