Abstract

Background & Aim: The world production and consumption of essential oils and perfumes are increasing very fast. Lippia citriodora H.B.K. is an herbal species mainly used as a spice and medicinal plant. Endogenous levels as well exogenous application of plant growth regulators (PGR) could affect essential oil production and chemical compositions. Experimental: To study the effect of exogenous application of pgr on chemical composition and volatile oil content of lemon verbena (Lippia citriodora H.B.K.), an experiment was conducted based on Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Experimental treatments included distillated water (positive Control), without treatment (negative Control), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) (2mgL -1 ), 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) (2mgL -1 ) and IAA + BAP (2mgL -1 ). The hydro-distillated
