ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study leaf ultrastructure in varieties of Chrysanthemum morifolium.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The ultrastructure of leaves was observed through the transmission electron microscope.</p><p><b>RESULT AND CONCLUSION</b>Chloroplast, mitochondria, starch grains and peroxide were observed in the ultrastructure of leaves, but the organelle, ultrastructure and their quantity showed differences in various cultivars. The results may explain, why hangju'has a better resistance to the adversity and is planted in large scale.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study on dynamic accumulation of various flavone in Chrysanthemum morifolium, in order to appraise the quality of flavone.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The extract was hydrolyzed and the flavonoid components were determined by RP-HPLC.</p><p><b>RESULT AND CONCLUSION</b>In the samples from Tongxiang, Tezhongboju showed the highest flavonoids content with the total flavone 9.81%, quercetin 4.17 per thousand and apigenin 17.02 per thousand. In the samples from Sheyang, Hongxinju showed the highest content of luteolin with 6.84 per thousand. In the samples from Jiangning, Tezhongboju showed the highest content of total flavone with 7.59%, Yizhongdabaiju showed the highest content of quercetin with 2.78 per thousand, Sheyangxiaobaiju showed the highest content of luteolin with 4.27 per thousand, Sheyanghongxinju showed the highest content of apigenin with 11.20 per thousand. There were differences in the content of flavonoids among the different cultivars, and the same cultivars showed also different when planted in different areas.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the dynamic accumulation of flavonoids in Chrysanthemum morifolium in order to chose the optimal harvest time.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The flavonoid content was determined in various C. morifolium and in different periods.</p><p><b>RESULT AND CONCLUSION</b>The accumulation of flavonoid in various Chrysanthemum reached a high level when lingulate flowers were in 50% blossom and tube ones in 30% or lingulate flowers were in 70% blossom and tube ones in 50%. Only few of C. morifolium reached a high level of flavonoid, when 1 both ingulate and tube flowers blossomed fully.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the anabolic rule of secondary metabolites and dynamic activity of isoenzyme in Chrysanthemum morifolium originating from Wenxian county during blossoming stages.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The flavonoid, chlorogenic acid and anthocyanin content as well as the PAL, PPO and POD activity were determined in C. morifolium originating from Wenxian county during blossoming stages.</p><p><b>RESULT AND CONCLUSION</b>The content of flavonoid and chlorogenic acid was the highest at 70% of full blossom, the anthocyanin at 50% and PPO activity at 30% with the same trend of two cultivars. Between the two cultivars, the trend of PAL and POD was different. The highest of "huaidabaiju" appeared at 70% and 30%, but that of "huaixiaobaiju" appeared at 50% and 50%.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effects of climate factors on the Chrysanthemum morifolium originated from Wenxian county (i. e "huaiju") for assuring the quality of medicinal C. morifolium.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The content of water-soluble extracts, protein, sugar, flavonoid and chlorogenic acid of "huaiju" collected from Henanwenxian, Jiangsunanjing and Zhejiangtongxiang were selected as the indicator and determined, climate data of the corresponding places were collected for studying the effects on "huaiju" quality through path analysis and correlation analysis.</p><p><b>RESULT AND CONCLUSION</b>There existed no obviously differences among the detected indicators except the soluble sugar content. Sunlight, temperature and precipitation showed more effects on quality of "huaiju", the sunlight had the most direct effect on flavonoid, the 10 cm ground temperature had the most direct effect on chlorogenic acid.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the quality and the chemical components of Chrysanthemum morifolium from Tongxiang city.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Chemical constituents of nine cultivars were compared in three types of index: chlorogenic acid, flavonoid and volatile oil.</p><p><b>RESULT AND CONCLUSION</b>The content varied significantly. The content of chlorogenic acid in Jinjuerhao was 6.66%, the highest among the samples. Yizhongdabaiju showed the highest flavonoid and volatile oil with 9.49% and 3.30 mL x kg(-1) respectively.</p>
