Volatile oil and fatty acids components of six
various populations of wild Bunium persicum Boiss. (Bam and
Zirkuh/Iran) and cultivated Cuminum cyminum L. (Rayen/
Iran; Cukurcak, Taskopru and Asagialicomak/Turkey) species
were investigated. The volatile oil content of Bam and Zirkuh
populations were 3.9 and 4.7 %, respectively. The analysis of
volatile oils by the GC/FID-MSD showed that γ-terpinene
(33.62-39.62 %), cuminal (17.9-19.3 %), o-cymene (5.3-11.1
%), benzenemethanol, α-methyl- (7.4-9.5 %), 1-phenyl-1-butanol
(6.4-8.4 %) and limonene (6.4-8.6 %) were the major
components of B. persicum populations. Rayen, Cukurcak, Taskopru
and Asagialicomak populations of C. cyminum had 2.6,
2.2, 2.0 and 2.5 % of volatile oil, respectively. Cuminal (22.8-
37.6 %), benzenemethanol, α-methyl- (5.3-22.6 %), γ-terpinene
(16.7-19.4 %), β-pinene (11.2-11.9 %) and 1-phenyl-1-butanol
(5.4-12.5 %) were identified as the main components of C.
cyminum. Fatty acids were detected by the GC/FID. In total, 15
fatty acids were characterised in B. persicum populations from
Iran. Petroselinic acid (26.3-52.6 %), lauric acid (16.2-37.0 %)
and linoleic acid (18.3-33.0 %) were the predominant fatty acids
identified in Iranian populations. C. cyminum populations
were rich in the same fatty acids but, the order was: petroselinic
acid (47.5-55.5 %), linoleic acid (22.5-25.4 %) and lauric acid
(13.4-24.2 %). Monounsaturated fatty acids (27.4-56.2 %) were
the major subgroup. Overall, B. persicum populations from Iran
and C. cyminum from Turkey were almost similar in fatty acids
profile although they had wide diversity in the volatile oils compositional
profile.
