Rhizome and root yield of the cultivated Arnica montana L., chemical composition and histochemical localization of essential oil

Evaluation of the chemical composition of essential oils with respect to the maturity of flower heads of Arnica montana L. and Arnica chamissonis Less. cultivated for industry

“…This substance may undergo quantitative and qualitative changes during the vegetative period (Willuhn, 1972). High content of essential oil and their chemical composition in rhizomes and roots have been previously reported (Willuhn, 1972;Rohloff, 2003;Weremczuk-Jeżyna et al, 2006Pljevljakušić et al, 2012). There are only a few reports describing the constituents of essential oils in A. montana underground parts.…”

Evaluation of species inter-relations and soil conditions in Arnica montana L. habitats: a step towards active protection of endangered and high-valued medicinal plant species in NE Poland

“…A result of breeding work based on natural populations is the Arbo variety [39], which is successfully cultivated in Europe and New Zealand [40] and has been used in experimental studies [41]. In the last decade, arnica genotypes taken from natural sites and from gardens and collections have been the subject of various studies on agricultural factors that determine and modify the yield and composition of secondary metabolites [33,38,[42][43][44]. For the protection of plant species, characterization of soil conditions is necessary but is a frequently omitted element.…”

Endophytic Streptomyces in the traditional medicinal plant Arnica montana L.: secondary metabolites and biological activity

“…The polyacetylenic molecules additionally provide an antifungal effect. Phenolic acids add an antioxidative facet (Rossetti et al 1984;Teuscher et al 2009;Jurkiewicz et al 2010;Pljevljakušić et al 2012). …”
