“…In the mountainous region, variation in micro-climate is common, and this variation in uences the qualitative and quantitative parameters of medicinal and aromatic plants 48, 49,50 . The variations in essential oil concentrations in the wild populations and cultivated populations of V. jatamansi have also been reported earlier 31,36,44 . Despite proper agronomic practices, the oil concentration in the cultivated population (CSIR-IHBT) was lower than the populations from Kugti and Khani.…”

Valeriana jatamansi is an important temperate herb, which is used for pharmaceutical and essential oil industries. In India, this species is now at the verge of extinction due to the over-exploitation of its rhizomes from its natural habitat. It is hypothesized that the variations in bioactive compounds in its essential oil are very high among the wild populations as well as cultivated sources. Thus, the study was conducted to evaluate the chemical profiling of essential oil of four wild populations (Rupena, Kugti, Garola, Khani) and two cultivated sources (CSIR-IHBT, Saloonie), which were distilled at three consecutive days. The variation in oil concentration in root/rhizome was found significant (P ≤ 0.05), and the maximum value (0.35%) was registered with the population collected from Kugti and Khani. In essential oil, irrespective of population and distillation day, patchouli alcohol was the major compound, which ranged from 19 to 63.1%. The maximum value (63.1%) was recorded with the essential oil obtained from Garola's population and distilled on the first day. The percentage of seychellene was abruptly increased with subsequent days of extraction in all the populations. The multivariate analysis revealed that the essential oil profiles of Rupena, Kugti, Garola, and CSIR-IHBT populations were found similar during the first day of distillation. However, during the second day Rupena, Kugti, Khani, and CSIR-IHBT come under the same ellipse of 0.95% coefficient. The results suggest that the population of Kugti is superior in terms of oil concentration (0.35%) with a higher proportion of patchouli alcohol (63% on the first day). Thus, repeated distillation is recommended for higher recovery of essential oil. Moreover, repeated distillation can be used to attain V. jatamansi essential oil with differential and perhaps targeted definite chemical profile.

“…Whereas antioxidant activity estimated using DPPH was higher in case of wild source. Comparative assessment revealed that essential oil exhibited stronger antioxidant activity than methanol extract (Rawat et al, ). Moreover, several molecular markers (intersimple sequence repeats markers) were also identified to be associated with the antioxidant activity of V. jatamansi measured by ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP assay, and their use in identification and breeding of quality plants was envisaged (Jugran, Bhatt, et al, ; Jugran et al, ).…”

Valeriana jatamansi Jones (Family: Caprifoliaceae), a high value medicinal plant, was distributed in many countries of Asia. The species possesses important valepotriates and is a good source of flavones or flavone glycosides, lignans, sesquiterpenoids or sesquiterpenoid glycoside, bakkenolide type sesquiterpenoids, phenolic compounds, terpinoids, etc. The use of the species in traditional and modern medicines is well known. For instance, V. jatamansi is very important for its insect repelling and antihelmethic properties. Similarly, sedative, neurotoxic, cytotoxic, antidepressant, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities of the species in various ailments in the indigenous system of medicine, particularly in Asia, are reported. This review focuses on the detailed phytochemical composition, medicinal uses, and pharmacological properties of V. jatamansi along with analysis of botanical errors in published literature and reproducibility of the biomedical researches on this multipurpose herbaceous species.

“…Effectiveness of medicinal plants dependents upon amount of active constituents present in the species, which may be highly influenced by different factors such as, growing conditions, seasons, climatic conditions, sun light exposure, altitude, along with genetic make‐up etc . Therefore, selection of elite plants is essentially required, which contain higher phytochemical content and good pharmacological activity for obtaining maximum benefits.…”

Literature reveals that the species is lacking in exact scientific basis of the beneficial properties. Although, some other distinct biological properties identified in this species also opened new door way for its new applications. Therefore, the mentioned phytochemical constituents such as phenolic and flavonoids compounds; and related pharmacological activities such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity of the species have provided some suggestive scientific evidences for its potential in pharmaceutical, food and aromatic industries.
