The essential oil components and a karyotypic analysis of five Lippia alba (Verbenaceae) accessions from Brazil were performed with the objective of investigating the variation among different populations. The chemistry analysis allowed the grouping of the accessions in two main chemotypes: neral chemotype (LaCat, LaJF and LaRJ) and linalool chemotype (LaGua and LaVC). However, large karyotypic differences, verified by different chromosome banding techniques, were not detected. The results presented the same chromosome number for all accessions (2n = 30) with 10 metacentric chromosomes and 5 submetacentric. The chromosome banding showed great blocks of constitutive heterochromatin (C-bands) around the centromeric region, which was rich in AT bases (DAPI(+)), while the CMA bands were observed only in terminal regions of six chromosomes. Through Ag-NOR techniques, only two active pairs of NORs were detected on the three pairs of secondary constrictions (the NOR activity is discussed). This work relates the pattern of heterochromatin for Lippia alba for the first time.
