Resumo: |
Verbenaceae species are known for the production of essential oils in glandular trichomes widely distributed in the plant body. Although the occurrence of these trichomes is a constitutive character to Verbenaceae, the glandular density and the quantity and chemical composition of the secretion can vary acording to the environmental conditions. Lippia origanoides, a native species from the Brazilian Cerrado, has been identified as producer of bioactive compounds important in the treatment against cancer cells and in the antibacterial, antiviral and antioxidant protection. Our aim was to study the distribution, histochemistry and ultrastructure of the trichomes in L. origanoides, in addition to evaluate the glandular density and the chemical profile of the essential oils from vegetative and reproductive organs in plants from two physiognomies of Cerrado. Samples of expanded leaves, leaf primordia, stem and inflorescences were collected from individuals of campo cerrado and cerrado stricto sensu. The samples were processed according to conventional techniques in light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy and phytochemistry. Five morphotypes of typical glandular trichomes (I to V) and one morphotype of tector trichome (VI) with secretory activity exhibited differential distribution in the vegetative and reproductive organs of L. origanoides. These morphotypes of trichomes differ in the shape and number of cells in the head, stalk and basis, and in the composition, accumulation site and liberation mode of the secretion. Our results suggest a relation between glandular morphotype and secretion composition. Phenolic compounds, proteins and polysaccharides were identified in trichomes I to V; terpenes in trichomes I, II, IV and V; alkaloids in trichomes III. In trichomes VI, total lipids, terpenes and alkaloids were identified. The ultrastructural aspects corroborated the results of the histochemical tests and provided ... |
