Abstract:		"The essential oil contents of the fruit and roots of Cymbopogon olivieri growing wild in south of Iran were found to be 0.7% and 0.4% (v/w), respectively based on the fresh weight. The oils were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Forty and twenty six constituents, representing 93.1% and 93.4% of the oils were identified, respectively. The major components of the C. olivieri fruit oil were identified as piperitone (44.1%), alpha-terpinene (13.7%), neral (6.3%), elemol (5.6%) and beta-eudesmol (5.3%), while the main components of that of roots were characterized as piperitone (20.6%), alpha-muurolol (9.5%), beta-eudesmol (8.5%), selina-6-en-4-ol (7.9%), 5-epi-7-epi-alpha-eudesmol (6.8%) and elemol (5.8%)"
