The chemical composition of the essential oils of Cymbopogon schoenanthus (L.) was investigated by GC and GC/MS study. Cis-sabinene hydrate was found as the major component which varies from 30.1-31.6% in wild and cultivated plants whereas trans-sabinene was found to be second highest constituent which was 17.1% in wild sample and 14.5% in cultivated oil sample. Results reveals that chemical composition of Cymbopogon schoenanthus wild and cultivated oil has similar composition but both of them varied quantitatively especially in case of cis-piperitol. Data set indicates that species cultivated in tarai and plain region of Uttarakhand can be used for trapping sabinene hydrate which is present in very good amount in both the samples.
