Notes
"There is evidence for three chemotypes of L. scoparium in New Zealand, conforming in part to morphological types: a high-pinene chemotype in the far north, a high-triketone (especially leptospermone) chemotype on the East Cape, and a type containing a complex of sesquiterpenes found over the rest of the country. An oil from the East Cape chemotype showed the strongest antimicrobial activity."(from authors" abstract)
