Abstract—

We investigate a correlation between the microelement profile and the essential oil composition of a plant by taking the plants from the Filipendula genus as an example. The following plants from the meadowsweet genus growing in Eurasia are used as study subjects: F. angustiloba Maxim., F. сamtschаtica Maxim., F. denudata Fritsch., F. glaberrima Nakai, F. intermedia Juz., F. palmata Maxim., F. picbaueri Smejkal. F. ulmaria Maxim., and F. vulgaris Moench. Fifty nine microelements are determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The composition of essential oils from these plants is determined by gas chromatography mass spectrometry. It is established that the compositional profile of volatile components of their essential oils consists of 19 phenolic and terpenoid compounds. We perform cluster analysis of these data and construct tree diagrams showing the grouping of investigated plants in clusters according to their microelement profile and essential oil composition. It is found that the microelement profile and the essential oil composition correlate well between each other and this correlation is in line with the conventional taxonomic classification of considered species based on their morphological characteristics. We showed that the microelement profile of a plant and the multicomponent composition of its essential oil are interrelated and species-specific.

菲律宾属植物的微量元素分布与植物精油成分的相关性

摘要—

我们以Filipendula属植物为例，研究了微量元素分布与植物精油成分之间的相关性。来自欧亚大陆的草地甜菜属的以下植物被用作研究对象：F. angustiloba Maxim。，F.сamtschаticaMaxim。，F. denudata Fritsch。，F. glaberrima Nakai，F. intermedia Juz。，F. palmata Maxim.。 ，F。picbaueri Smejkal。F. ulmaria Maxim。和F.寻常型Moench。通过电感耦合等离子体质谱法测定了59种微量元素。来自这些植物的精油的组成通过气相色谱质谱法测定。已经确定其精油的挥发性成分的组成特征由19种酚和萜类化合物组成。我们对这些数据进行聚类分析，并构建树状图，根据其微量元素特征和精油成分，将被研究植物分组。发现微量元素分布和精油成分之间具有很好的相关性，并且这种相关性与根据其形态特征对所考虑物种的常规分类学分类相一致。
