Abstract

Coriandrum sativum L. has a distinct flavour and aroma which is due to the essential oil present in it. The main component of the es-sential oil of the fruit is monoterpenoids and linalool. All parts of the plant are edible. The content and composition of essential oil is influenced by climatic conditions, agro technology and stage of maturity at time of harvesting, geography of growing region, abiotic stress such as salinity and process of extraction of oils.
