Abstract

The edible fruits of Garcinia huillensis Welw. ex. Oliv. growing wild in the Gutu and Rusape areas of Zimbabwe were collected, hydrodistilled and examined by GC–MS for essential oil composition. The main components from the fruit collected from the Rasa area, Gutu, were α‐humulene (23.0%), valencene (18.2%), β‐caryophyllene (12.6%), caryophyllene oxide (6.3%) and δ‐selinene (5.0%). The Rusape oil contained β‐caryophyllene (53.9%), α‐humulene (10.1%) and valencene (4.0%) as the major components. Copyright Β© 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
