Botanical description, habitat and habitats, chemical composition, use in medicine and industry Perennial herbaceous plant, 40-100 cm high, of the Asteraceae family (Compositae). The rhizome is shortened, woody, horizontal, brownish-dark brown in color, with numerous thin, very brittle roots branching off. The stems are thinly ribbed, hollow, slightly cobwebbed, somewhat swollen at the end, usually ending in a large, almost spherical basket. The leaves are alternate, deeply pinnate, slightly cobwebbed. Flowers purple-purple. The fruit is a brown tetrahedral ribbed achene 6-8 mm long and 2-3 mm wide with a tuft at the top. Flowering in July-August, fruiting in August-September. Range and habitats. The plant is endemic, found in the Sayans, Altai, Kuznetsk Alatau. Cultivated for industrial purposes. It grows in subalpine, rarely alpine meadows (at an altitude of 1400-2300 m above sea level). In the harsh climatic conditions of Siberia, maral root proved to be winter-hardy, cold-resistant and drought-resistant plants. It is introduced into the culture easily by summer and spring sowing of fresh seeds. Plants sown in spring develop a strong root system and form small rosettes of leaves by autumn. The yield per 1 ha of raw roots of biennial plants is 52 centners, dry - 24 centners, raw green mass - 108, dry - 22 centners. The yield of seeds of three-year-old plants from 1 ha is 3 centners. The whole plant and especially its roots have a strong smell. The best sowing method is wide-row every 60-70 cm with a seeding rate of 8-9 kg per hectare. In the first year, in addition to inter-row treatments, it is desirable to carry out weeding in rows. In subsequent years, the aisles are loosened and the plants are fed with organic and mineral fertilizers. Maral root bears fruit annually, yielding up to 250 kg of mature seeds per hectare. With this amount of seeds, 16-30 ha can be sown. Seeds ripen in the first decade of July. Chemical composition. Leuzea rhizomes contain alkaloids, ascorbic acid, carotene, inulin, about 5% tannins and essential oils. The finished raw material is rhizomes up to 12 cm long, densely covered with dark brown, almost black roots, dirty yellow at the break, with a slight peculiar, slightly resinous odor. Application in medicine. Rhizoma with roots (lat. Rhizoma cum radicibus Leuzeae) is used as a medicinal raw material for safflower-like leuzea. Raw materials are harvested at the end of summer or autumn, after fruit ripening, they are shaken off the ground, washed quickly, dried in dryers at a temperature of 50-60 ° C or in the sun. The thickets of the plant are restored very slowly, therefore, when collecting per 10 m2 of thickets, two to four plants are left intact. In medicine, rhizomes with leuzea roots (both in the form of plant materials and an extract from it containing ecdisten) are used as a tonic and adaptogenic drug. According to the manufacturer, Leuzea preparations are indicated as part of combination therapy for asthenia, physical and mental overwork, reduced potency, and during convalescence. The main active ingredients (ecdysterone and its analogues ecdysteroids) have an analgesic effect. Leuzea safflower is included in the recipe of the Sayany tonic drink. Other uses. It is considered a strong honey plant in the conditions of East Kazakhstan. The flowering period does not exceed 10-12 days and is compensated by the abundant release of nectar. Flowers bear fruit especially well after rain, in calm, warm and sunny weather. Leuzea honey is liquid, colorless or with a slight greenish tinge, pleasant in taste and very aromatic. The most intensive flowering at a temperature of 18-25 ° and air humidity of 60-72%. From 1 hectare of plantations, you can get up to 100 kg of honey and perga. Daily weight gain can reach up to 2 kilograms. The flowers are also visited by bumblebees and ants. Promising fodder crop. 100 kg of green mass contains 14-16 feed units and 1,6-2,0 kg of digestible protein. Having 9-14% sugars in the composition of dry matter, the plant is perfectly ensiled in its pure form. 100 kg of silage contains 18,2 feed units and 2,28 kg of digestible protein or 125 g of digestible protein per feed unit. In the budding phase - the beginning of flowering, in terms of protein content, it is not inferior to legumes. The duration of economic use of the plantation is more than 15 years. In fresh and dry form it is well eaten by horses and rabbits, in dry form - by sheep. Chipmunks store seeds for the winter, and Siberian pikas store green mass. It is very decorative: it gives beautiful lush greenery, therefore it is suitable for planting paths in flower beds. In summer it is well eaten by the Altai maral (Cervus elaphus sibiricus Severtzow). Authors: Turova A.D., Sapozhnikova E.N.
