Abstract

A comparative analysis of the main groups of biologically active compounds in the leaves and infl orescences of plants of nine species of the Spiraea L. genus from Russian Far East natural and introduction populations is carried out. Widespread species of the genus Spiraea characterized by the high content of active substances. Th e content of catechins, anthocyanins, saponins and sugars in infl orescences more than the leaves, tannins accumulated more in leaves. Diff erences of species of the correlation glycosides of quercetin and kaempferol are revealed. Plants S. pubescens diff erent by the high content of quercetin glycosides (1.61 %) and S. ussuriensis- kaempferol glycosides (1.77 %).
