Possibilities of Influencing the Biosynthesis and Accumulation of the Active Principles in Chrysanthemum balsamita L Species
Keywords:

The paper presents the way of influencing the processes of biosynthesis and
accumulation processes of the active principles that are responsible for the therapeutical activity (volatile oil, phenyl propane derivatives) in the Chrysanthemum balsamita L. species, resented in Romania in two chemical infraspecific taxa.
There are presented the ways of intervening by growing technology and by specific treatments (nutritional area, plantation time, fertilization and use of growth regulators), that lead to obtaining of a medicinal vegetal product with a maximal content of active principles, thus being very important for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry.
