“…Over the years, varieties of several Ocimum species with high essential oil yield and desired metabolite profiles have been developed through traditional breeding methods. For instance, high essential oil yielding, eugenol-rich O. tenuiflorum (CIM Ayu), methyl chavicol and linalool-rich O. basilicum (CIM Saumya), and O. basilicum with a flavor similar to Piper betle due to the presence of chavibetol have been developed (Lal et al 2018). Also, morphologically similar but chemically distinct breeding lines of O. basilicum have been established, with eugenol (line SW) and methyl chavicol (line EMX-1), as the only phenylpropanoid components in their essential oil (Gang et al 2001).…”

A glance at the chemodiversity of Ocimum species: Trends, implications, and strategies for the quality and yield improvement of essential oil

Ocimum species represent commercially important medicinal and aromatic plants. The essential oil biosynthesized by Ocimum species is enriched with specialized metabolites specifically, terpenoids and phenylpropanoids. Interestingly, various Ocimum species are known to exhibit diverse chemical profiles, and this chemical diversity has been at the center of many studies to identify commercially important chemotypes. Here, we present various chemotypes from the Ocimum species and emphasize trends, implications, and strategies for the quality and yield improvement of essential oil. Globally, many Ocimum species have been analyzed for their essential oil composition in over 50 countries. Asia represents the highest number of chemotypes, followed by Africa, South America, and Europe. Ocimum basilicum L. has been the most widespread and well-studied species, followed by O . gratissimum L., O . tenuiflorum L., O . canum Sims, O . americanum and O . kilimandscharicum Gürke. Moreover, various molecular reasons, benefits, adverse health effects and mechanisms behind this vast chemodiversity have been discussed. Different strategies of plant breeding, metabolic engineering, transgenic, and tissue-culture, along with anatomical modifications, are surveyed to enhance specific chemotypic profiles and essential oil yield in numerous Ocimum species. Consequently, chemical characterization of the essential oil obtained from Ocimum species has become indispensable for its proper utilization . The present chemodiversity knowledge from Ocimum species will help to exploit various applications in the industrial, agriculture, biopharmaceutical, and food sectors.

“…In addition, the composition of EOs may differ between individual plants in a population and sometimes even different chemotypes exist within a species. Furthermore, chemical varieties of EO-producing plants have also been bred, developed, and studied to improve their EOs content, quality and composition ( Toxopeus and Bouwmeester, 1992 ; Sarrou et al, 2017 ; Lal et al, 2018 ).…”

Essential Oils as Multicomponent Mixtures and Their Potential for Human Health and Well-Being

et al. 2022

Essential oils (EOs) and their individual volatile organic constituents have been an inherent part of our civilization for thousands of years. They are widely used as fragrances in perfumes and cosmetics and contribute to a healthy diet, but also act as active ingredients of pharmaceutical products. Their antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties have qualified EOs early on for both, the causal and symptomatic therapy of a number of diseases, but also for prevention. Obtained from natural, mostly plant materials, EOs constitute a typical example of a multicomponent mixture (more than one constituent substances, MOCS) with up to several hundreds of individual compounds, which in a sophisticated composition make up the property of a particular complete EO. The integrative use of EOs as MOCS will play a major role in human and veterinary medicine now and in the future and is already widely used in some cases, e.g., in aromatherapy for the treatment of psychosomatic complaints, for inhalation in the treatment of respiratory diseases, or topically administered to manage adverse skin diseases. The diversity of molecules with different functionalities exhibits a broad range of multiple physical and chemical properties, which are the base of their multi-target activity as opposed to single isolated compounds. Whether and how such a broad-spectrum effect is reflected in natural mixtures and which kind of pharmacological potential they provide will be considered in the context of ONE Health in more detail in this review.

“…Se tienen reportes de que las especies de Ocimum inhiben la formación de ciclooxigenasa (COX) y estimulan la biosíntesis de tromboxano A3 (TXA3) y prostaciclina (PGI3), con actividad vasodilatadora [87,136,137]. Fathiazad (2012), reporta que O. basilicum tiene un efecto contra el infarto inducido por isoproterenol y sugiere que los efectos cardioprotectores podrían estar relacionados con actividades antioxidantes [138].…”
