Figure 3

Distribution of the chemical constituents of the essential oil of L. gracilis in relation to the two principal components through analysis of the principal component analysis (PCA) for plants harvested in the rainy (a) and dry (b) seasons. (C01 = α-thujene, C02 = myrcene, C03 = α-terpinene, C04 = p-cymene, C05 = limonene, C06 = 1,8-cineol, C07 = γ-terpinene, C08 = linalool, C09 = methyl thymol, C10 = thymol, C11 = carvacrol, C12 = β-caryophyllene, C13 = α-humulene, C14 = bicyclogermacrene, C15 = spathulenol, and C16 = caryophyllene oxide).
