Abstract

The effect of different doses of triple superphosphate (TSP), 100, 200, and 400 kg P ha-1 on growth, chlorophyll content, and essential oil and fatty acid composition was evaluated in shoots of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) grown in a pot experiment under nursery conditions. The application of TSP to 6 weeks-old seedlings induced an increase in shoot height, shoot dry weight, the chlorophyll and total fatty acid contents. However, phosphate fertilizer did not affect the total essential oil content, expressed as % of dry weight. The major constituents of the essential oils are decanal, aromadendrene and a-cadinol. The total content of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons was strongly increased under 200 kg P ha-1 (1.9-fold). The essential oil components aromadendrene, cadalene, a-copaene, a-octan-2-ol and n-decanol, (E)-nerolidol, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, and myrtenyl acetate, were also increased under phosphate fertilization. Threfore, triple superphosphate application induced changes in the composition of essential oils and fatty acids in coriander shoots, and significantly increased the terpenes and total lipid contents.
