Resumo
Essential oils of four species of Marsypianthes (Lamiaceae) were investigated via gas
chromatography and multivariate analysis. Each species was represented by two to seven
populations, totaling seventeen populations. β-Elemene, (E)-caryophyllene, α-humulene,
germacrene D, bicyclogermacrene, δ-cadinene, spathulenol, caryophyllene oxide, and globulol were
found in all samples. Principal component and hierarchical cluster analyses revealed the presence
of two sections, one containing M. chamaedrys/M. montana (section A) and the other M. burchellii
(section B). M. foliolosa showed higher complexity, being divided in both sections. Similar results
were obtained according to biosynthetic carbon skeletons. Germacranes and bicyclogermacranes
predominated in section A, whereas aromadendranes, bourbonanes and guaianes characterized
section B. Canonical redundancy analysis revealed that clusters were not influenced by edaphic
factors in sampling sites.
