The results of phytochemical studies of various types of raw materials (flowers, leaves, stems, roots) of some taxa of the 

genus  Chrysanthemum (the family Asteraceae  Dumort.):  two  species  –  Chrysanthemum  coronarium,  Ch. segetum and four 

varieties Ch. × hortorum Bailey – "Kupava", "Doch' Rozetty", "Oranzhevyj Zakat", "Vechernie Ogni". As the object of com-

parison Tanacetum vulgare L. was used. Quantitative characteristics of amino acids, macro- and microelements have been de-

termined. The high ability of leaves to accumulate elements such as sodium (0.30–0.41%), calcium (1.24–2.13%), manganese 

(317.76–651.83 mg/kg), iodine (0.18–0.32 mg/kg), zinc (80.55–115.44 mg/kg), as well as amino acids (8.97–15.38 mg%). 

Roots contain as much as possible phosphorus (0.18–0.92%), copper (4.61–20.18 mg/kg) and iron (507.48–1234.71 mg/kg); in 

the stems – potassium (0.80–1.63%). Varying the studied indicators reflects the different biological value of the objects of re-

search. The analysis of elemental and amino acid composition of various types of raw materials of some taxa of chrysanthemum 

showed that the studied cultivars are promising sources of amino acids, macro- and microelements. As alternative sources of 

biologically active substances, further studies have been proposed Ch. coronarium, Ch. segetum, Ch. × hortorum "Oranzhevyj 

Zakat" and "Vechernie Ogni".  

Keywords: Chrysanthemum L., Tanacetum vulgare, amino acids, macro and microelements.
