- Abstract
The goal of the study is to reveal the features of accumulation and qualitative composition of essential oil in common yarrow herb (Achillea millefolium L.) harvested in agro- and urbocenoses of Voronezh Region. All analyzed samples of herbal raw material gathered in 13 selected points of Voronezh Region are considered to have good-quality essential oil. A sample of common yarrow growing on the territory of Khopersky Reserve exhibited the maximum content of essential oil (0.76%). The minimum percentage of essential oil was revealed in the samples collected along M4 highway in Pavlovsky District (0.18%). The content of essential oil in samples of control areas and agrobiocenoses is higher than that in herb samples of urbobiocenoses. Chromatography-mass spectrometric analysis of essential oils contained in the studied samples revealed greater than 130 different compounds in them. The qualitative composition of the essential oil was significantly different and depended on the place of harvesting. The place of growth of the species and anthropogenic factors can thus significantly affect the features of the synthesis of secondary metabolites in plants.
