“…It is native to Europe and has been used for centuries in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments, including headaches, fever, arthritis, digestive problems, and menstrual irregularities. Feverfew plants have a bushy growth habit and can reach a height of 24-36 inches (60-90 cm) (Hordiei et al, 2018). The leaves are green and deeply lobed, with a slightly bitter taste and a pungent odor.…”

Medicinal and aromatic plants are the forgotten wealth of Egypt, as the importance of expanding their cultivation comes after the increasing demand for them locally and globally, due to their economic importance and export revenue. So, a field experiment was implemented aiming at evaluating different plant residues compost as main plots [Sn-C: Snap bean compost (foliage), So-C: Soya bean compost (stover) and W-C: Wheat compost (straw), at a rate of 25.0 m 3 ha -1 for each source plus control treatment (without compost)] and various amino acids as sub-main plots [control (without), lysine (100 mg L -1 ), arginine (100 mg L -1 ) and proline (100 mg L -1 ) with the volume of 900 L ha -1 for each studied amino acid] on the performance of feverfew plant. The results show that the Sn-C treatment was superior for obtaining the best performance [ i.e., plant height, No. of branches, herb fresh and dry weights, flower fresh and dry weights, No. of flower plant -1 , essential oil, photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll and carotene) and chemical constituents (N, P, K)] followed by So-C treatment then W-C treatment, whilst control treatment came in the last order. Regarding the amino acids treatments, the results illustrate that the sequence order of amino acids for obtaining the best performance from top to less was proline, arginine, lysine and control treatment, respectively. Generally, it can be concluded that treating the soil with plant residues compost and simultaneously spraying the plants with amino acids will achieve improvement in the performance of medicinal and aromatic plants.

The article addresses to the problems of contamination by heavy metals of herbal substances in Voronezh Oblast, Russia. The object of the study was Tanacetum Vulgare gathered in urban and agro-ecosystems exposed to anthropogenic impact. The research was conducted by atomic absorption spectrophotometric method, using the MGA-915MD atomic absorption spectrometer in accordance with pharmacopoeia method. The study gave consideration to 51 samples of Tanacetum Vulgare contaminated by heavy met-als (plumbum, mercury, cadmium, nickel, copper, zinc, cobalt, chromium) and arsenic. All samples meet the existing requirements, specified in reference documentation, in regards to norms of con-tained heavy metals (plumbum, cadmium, mercury) and aresnic. Comparing the data on the con-tent of heavy metals in top soil of the region and the content of these elements in Tanacetum Vulgare blossoms, it can be argued that there exist some substantial physiological barriers preventing the plants from accumulation of ecotoxicants in their reproductive organs. It is most noticeable for such elements as plumbum, mercury, cadmium, cobalt and chromium. It appears that Tanacetum Vulgare is able to selectively absorb some heavy metals that penetrate into zymophore (e.g., copper and zinc) provided that their environmental content is below vital level. On the contrary, when the content of such elements in top soil was consider-able, the plant blocked physiologically their penetration into the blossoms. Thereunder, it is fair to assume for Tanacetum Vulgare that, as a result of technological impact, the edaphotype forms and adapts to such environmental conditions. Tanacetum Vulgare blossoms accumulate toxic elements from top soil inconsiderably, which is important for procurement planning and assessment of herbal substances quality.
