摘要:Electrophoretic protein profiles, oil composition and morphological traits were used to study the genetic diversity ofwild-growing Mentha spicata and four hybrids from the collection of mint of the Moldova State University. It wasfound out that forms with different origin and morphological peculiarities are characterized by a similar essential oilcomposition, rich in the carvone 60-65% and menthol 58-70%. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed 30 polypeptidecomponents with relative molecular weights in a range of 14,15-90,0 kDa, which showed molecular heterogeneityaverage of 43%. A negative correlation was found among morphological parameters (inflorescence, leaf and plantlength) of Mentha spicata and quantity of the main terpenoid - carvone. Also, a more pronounced protein polymorphismwas established in the wild-growing form.
