Abstract: | Wild guava trees (Psidium guajava) in Fiji can be classified into three main chemotypes on the basis of the relative amounts of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons present in the leaf essential oils. The principal components include caryophyllene, β-bisabolene, aromadendrene, β-selinene, nerolidiol, caryophyllene oxide and sel-11-en-4α-ol. |
