“…A high site‐based variability in the chemical composition of Hypericum species is acknowledged by many authors, both considering the chemical variability due to the provenience, and from the point of view of the cultivation of the same genotype in different environments . Notwithstanding, any attempt to match exactly chemical features with geographical provenience was only partially successful…”

Within Sicilian flora, the genus Hypericum (Guttiferae) includes 10 native species, the most popular of which is H. perforatum. Hypericum's most investigated active compounds belong to naphtodianthrones (hypericin, pseudohypericin) and phloroglucinols (hyperforin, adhyperforin), and the commercial value of the drug is graded according to its total hypericin content. Ethnobotanical sources attribute the therapeutic properties recognized for H. perforatum, also to other Hypericum species. However, their smaller distribution inside the territory suggests that an industrial use of such species, when collected from the wild, would result in an unacceptable depletion of their natural stands. This study investigated about the potential pharmacological properties of 48 accessions from six native species of Hypericum, including H. perforatum and five 'minor' species, also comparing, when possible, wild and cultivated sources. The variability in the content of active metabolites was remarkably high, and the differences within the species were often comparable to the differences among species. No difference was enlightened between wild and cultivated plants. A carefully planned cultivation of Hypericum seems the best option to achieve high and steady biomass yields, but there is a need for phytochemical studies, aimed to identify for multiplication the genotypes with the highest content of the active metabolites.

“…In contrast to this, in oils of the same plant species other authors have found the following compounds as dominant: β-caryophyllene (14.2%) and 2-methyloctane (13.1%) [23], caryophyllene oxide [22], whereas Rančić et al [29] identified nnonane (63,8%), p-cymene (4.8%) and 3-methylnonane (4.5%) as main components -which made this oil sample completely different from others in the region (and beyond). Chatzopoulou et al [26] ascertained that aliphatic compounds (43.83%) and sesquiterpenes (39.73%) prevailed in their oil of H. perforatum while Mimica-Dukić et al [38] found that non-terpene components such as 1-tetradecanol, 10-methyl-1-undecene and cyclodecane dominated in oils of H. perforatum populations collected in lowland regions, whereas sesquiterpenes were predominant in oils of the plant material collected in highland regions.…”

This work contributes to the issue of Cd content in Hypericum perforatum and Thymus serpyllum grown in localities of Rtanj and Ozren, and implies the importance for systemic control of Cd content in Hypericum species in order to provide safety of their preparations. Furthermore, regarding Cd toxicity, maximal permissible level of Cd in plant material should be evaluated and established concerning national legislative frame.
