Abstract:
Cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) plants are grown since millions of years as they have wide adaptability to grow on all types of soils subject to availability of appropriate
sunlight, temperature and humidity. They are primarily grown to obtain cannabinoids (terpenophenolics) for medicinal purposes. They are also used to obtain fibers for their use
in textile industry. Turkey has seven major geographic regions; where, Cannabis can be grown economically under natural conditions. It has very light seed that can be easily
carried to other places by wind, bird droppings, and insects and by attaching to animal bodies. There are very meagre studies on chemical and morphological characterization for
better use in industry; therefore, it is desired to select and breed appropriate Cannabis lines and varieties for larger use. This study aimed chemical characterization of compounds
found in essential oils of 2 local Cannabis lines namely Uşak and Kastamonu at three harvesting times using HPLC to find their stability. In total, more than 30 compounds were
identified. The analysis further revealed that mean of two lines for α-Pinene, β-pinene, β-myrcene and β-caryophyllene were 1083.2 μg/g & 112.3 μg/g; 57.03 μg/g & 52.5 μg/g;
1085.2 μg/g &1064.1 μg/g and 30.64 μg/g & 22.3 μg/g respectively.
