Effects of lanthanum on the growth and essential oil components of lavender under osmotic stress

GC-MS total ion current of essential oil in lavender flowers. (a) Water stress group in the presence of LaCl3; (b) Figure below: Water stress group. The chemical compositions and relative contents of essential oils in leaves and flowers of lavender were detected and identified by GC-MS analysis in the presences and absence of LaCl3 under water stress. The results displayed the relative percentage contents of camphor, linalool, linalyl acetate, and lavandulol acetate. Moderate rare earth treatment could elevate the quality of essential oil of lavender flowers to some extent under water stress.134
