✦ Synopsis

The yield and chemical composition of the essential oils of Java citronella (Cymbopogon winterianus Jowitt.), lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus (Nees ex. Steud.) Wats. var. flexuosus Hack.) and palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii (Roxb.) Wats. var. motia Burk.) plants suffering from iron chlorosis were examined. Iron chlorosis significantly reduced biomass and essential oil yields and total chlorophyll content of the leaves of all the three species. The citronellal, citronellol and geraniol contents of Java citronella, the (E)-citral percentage of lemongrass and the geraniol concentration of palmarosa were lower in plants affected by iron chlorosis as compared to healthy plants. The minor constituents of the essential oils of these crops were also affected by iron chlorosis, but the crops differed in their response to iron deficiency.
