“…The above results are in accordance of earlier reports showed that essential oil content in German chamomile largely depends on the stage of capitulum development 14 , 15 . Several biosynthesis pathways may be disturbed and remained immature during differential harvesting 21 , 22 , which might be the reason for the variation in quality as well as quantity of essential oil harvested at different floral developmental stages.…”

German chamomile is an important medicinal and aromatic herb known for its blue essential oil. It lacks studies on anthesis, breeding systems and floral development with their impact on the essential oil. Therefore, the study investigated floral development and divided it into six reproductive stages (RS-1 to RS-6). The first four stages (5–6 days long) were identified as the floral enlargement and differentiation, followed by the fifth stage (10 days long) of three anthesis flushes, i.e., anther dehiscence, ray and disc florets' style branches flush. Anther dehiscence started 1–2 days before style branches flushes showed protandry and overlapped later with style branches flushes. Pollen production started from RS-3 and showed maximum viability (89%) at anther dehiscence (RS-5.1). Pollen showed dispersal through the air up to 0.7 m distance. Seed setting in controlled pollination experiments showed that removing disc florets could be successfully used as the emasculation alternate in German chamomile. The maximum essential oil content (0.40%) at the full blossomed floral stage (RS-4 &-5) suggested the right time for capitula harvesting. The findings on reproductive biology and breeding systems would offer several tools and techniques to support future breeding programs for genetic improvement of German chamomile.

“…The EOs from Germany and Hungary belonged to α-bisabolol oxide A chemotype. This study showed the effect of genetic factors on EO composition [12]. In a study on M. chamomilla from 11 countries, Orav et al reported different compositions depending on geographic regions and environmental factors, with EOs from Germany, Estonia, Greece, Scotland, England, and Latvia dominated by bisabolol oxide A chemotype, EOs from Moldova, Russia, and Czech dominated by α-bisabolol chemotype, EO from Armenia dominated by bisabolol oxide B chemotype, and EO from Ukraine dominated by bisabolone oxide A chemotype [9].…”

“…On the other hand, several studies reported the chemical composition of Iranian M. chamomilla EO. Generally, the EO was dominated either by α-bisabolol oxide A [11,12,14,15,[93][94][95][96][97][98], α-bisabolone oxide A [10,12], bisabolol oxide A [11], α-bisabolol [96], bisabolol oxide B [11], α-bisabolol oxide B [12], α-bisabolol oxide B and chamazulene [10], chamazulene [95], cis-pinocamphone [14], transand cisγ-bisabolene [10], or trans-β-farnesene [94]. This composition varied depending on the extraction technique [14], geographical factors [10], environmental conditions (normal or heat stress), plant cultivar, and salicylic acid concentrations and their interaction [11], and the use of cyanobacterial suspensions as bio-fertilizer [15].…”

“…In general, terpenoids formed the most important compound group in M. chamomilla EO, with the most important compounds being bisabolol and its oxides A and B, bisabolone oxide A, chamazulene, and β-farnesene (Figure 2). This composition is influenced by several factors, such as the geographic regions and environment [9,10], plant cultivars [11], and genetic factors [12]. Other factors related to the drying techniques [13], extraction techniques [14], salicylic acid concentrations [11], and the use of cyanobacterial suspensions as bio-fertilizers [15] can also influence EO chemical composition.…”

Matricaria chamomilla L. is a famous medicinal plant distributed worldwide. It is widely used in traditional medicine to treat all kinds of diseases, including infections, neuropsychiatric, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and liver disorders. It is also used as a sedative, antispasmodic, antiseptic, and antiemetic. In this review, reports on M. chamomilla taxonomy, botanical and ecology description, ethnomedicinal uses, phytochemistry, biological and pharmacological properties, possible application in different industries, and encapsulation were critically gathered and summarized. Scientific search engines such as Web of Science, PubMed, Wiley Online, SpringerLink, ScienceDirect, Scopus, and Google Scholar were used to gather data on M. chamomilla. The phytochemistry composition of essential oils and extracts of M. chamomilla has been widely analyzed, showing that the plant contains over 120 constituents. Essential oils are generally composed of terpenoids, such as α-bisabolol and its oxides A and B, bisabolone oxide A, chamazulene, and β-farnesene, among other compounds. On the other hand, M. chamomilla extracts were dominated by phenolic compounds, including phenolic acids, flavonoids, and coumarins. In addition, M. chamomilla demonstrated several biological properties such as antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-parasitic, insecticidal, anti-diabetic, anti-cancer, and anti-inflammatory effects. These activities allow the application of M. chamomilla in the medicinal and veterinary field, food preservation, phytosanitary control, and as a surfactant and anti-corrosive agent. Finally, the encapsulation of M. chamomilla essential oils or extracts allows the enhancement of its biological activities and improvement of its applications. According to the findings, the pharmacological activities of M. chamomilla confirm its traditional uses. Indeed, M. chamomilla essential oils and extracts showed interesting antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anticancer, antidiabetic, antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory, anti-depressant, anti-pyretic, anti-allergic, and analgesic activities. Moreover, the most important application of M. chamomilla was in the medicinal field on animals and humans.

The essential oils prepared by hydrodistillation of twenty‐one brands of German chamomile (S1‐S21) commercialized in Mexico were analyzed by GS‐MS. Altogether, twenty‐four different compounds were identified in the analyzed samples, varying from 77 to 100 % of the total composition. Multivariate analyses were applied to explore similarity/dissimilarity and correlation between all samples; the results revealed a strong correlation among samples S4, S5, and S7−S21 due to the presence of (Z)‐en‐yn‐dicycloether (Z‐ Tonghaosu), a‐bisabolol, b‐farnesene, b‐eudesmol, and xanthoxylin. The samples S1−S3 and S6 were clustered separately. Samples S1, S3, and S6 were characterized by their higher content of bisabolol oxide A (38.78 %, 51.84 %, and 70.46 %, respectively) as most known chemotypes of German chamomile, but only S1 and S3 contained chamazulene. Finally, S2 differed from the others because of its high content of (E)‐anethole (62.28 %), suggesting a case of adulteration or substitution of the crude drug employed for manufacturing the product.
