The genus Berula W. Koch belongs to the Apiaceae family and it is only represented by B. erecta (Huds.) Coville in
Turkey. B.
erecta was
collected in June, 2014 from Konya province. The chemical composition of
essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation from the dried aerial parts of B. erecta was analysed by GC-FID
and GC-MS. Thirty-five compounds, constituting about 79.4% of the total oil,
were identified. The major components were found as hexahydrofarnesyl acetone
(14.1%) and α-bisabolol oxide A (12.8%).
