Ocimum basilicum var. minimum
Ocimum basilicum var. minimum
Ocimum basilicum var. minimum, also known as microbasil or miniature basil, is a traditional culinary herb with origins in the Mediterranean and Asia. While it has been used for cooking, no specific traditional medicinal uses have been recorded. Scientific studies on Ocimum basilicum var. minimum suggest that its leaves exhibit varying wound responses depending on the plant's developmental stage, with more pronounced effects observed in budding and flowering plants compared to vegetative ones. Additionally, companion planting of basil can enhance the wound response in tomatoes through increased jasmonic acid, MAPK, and ROS signaling pathways. The essential oil from this variety has shown larvicidal activity against Ae. aegypti mosquitoes with dose-dependent relationships for LC50 and LC90 values. There are no major safety concerns or recorded drug interactions associated with Ocimum basilicum var. minimum.
