Abstract
The compositions of the essential oils obtained by steam distillation from the leaves of frost-resistant stocks of trifoliate orange (P. trifoliata (L.) Raf.) and Yunos-Yuzu citrus (Citrus ionos (Sieb.) and grafts of the mandarin orangeC. unshiu Marc —P. trifoliata +C. unshiu andC. ionos +C. unshiu — have been investigated with the aid of vacuum distillation, GLC, chromatography on an alumina column, and IR spectroscopy. The leaves were collected in the period of the flowering of the plants. The essential oils of grafts of the unshiu mandarin on trifoliate orange and Yunos-Yuzu citrus differed from one another with respect to the amounts of the components.
