Seasonal Effect on the Chemical Composition of Lippia alba Volatile Chemotypes

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
L. alba, a Brazilian medicinal species, is known for its volatile chemotypes, with fewer studies of its nonvolatile composition. Chemical characterization via GC‐MS and LC‐MS of five individuals, during the rainy and dry season, confirm the variability of the volatile composition but the nonvolatile composition was similar, with a discrete seasonal ...
