Abstract

Equilibrium headspace analysis in combination with gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy was used to identify volatile compounds released by the inflorescences and leaves from individual plants of Agastache foeniculum, Agastache rugosa, and putative hybrids. Methylchavicol was the major constituent in most populations tested. The inflorescences produced from 2 to 6 times more volatiles per gram than did the leaves. A. rugosa produced more volatiles than did A. foeniculum and had less diversity in its volatile composition. The putative hybrid was intermediate between the two proposed parents
