Abstract
AbstractOcimum basilicum L. occurs everywhere in several forms, varieties and chemotypes whose essential oils presents marked variation on chemical composition. A new analysis of O. basilicum, O. basilicum var. minimum L. and O. basilicum var. purpuracens Benth. growing in north‐eastern Brazil showed that O. basilicum var. minimum represented a true estragole chemotype, while the other two species analysed may be considered linalool chemotypes.
