Journal Title: Scientia Agriculturae - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

 The genus Achillea has nineteen species in Iran which seven species are endemic. Medicinal effects of these species are antimicrobial, antiallergic, antiinflammatory and antioxidant activities. This review focuses on main components of essential oils of some species of Achillea grown in Iran such as Achillea millefolium, A. filipendulia, A. wilhelmsii, A. eriophora, A. nobilis, A. biebersteinii, A. tenuifolia, A. conferta. The major constituents of the essential oils could be markedly influenced by the genotype, environmental conditions and laboratory isolation methods.
