Research on the biodiversity of blue honeysuckle growing in Siberia

Abstract The article presents the results of a study of intraspecific biodiversity and chemostructure of natural populations of blue honeysuckle. The level of variability of morphological and chemical characteristics of blue honeysuckle has been studied. Morphological signs of blue honeysuckle were determined depending on the growing area: bush height, bush diameter, fruit length, fruit width, fruit weight, weight of 10 seeds. Changes in the chemical composition of blue honeysuckle fruits: proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals are considered.
