The Anatomical Structure of the Medicinal Raw Material Acorus Calamus L. in the Conditions of Culture of the Samarkand Region (Uzbekistan)

Abstract

Acorus calamus L. grows in natural conditions in marshy places along the banks of ponds, canals and excessively moist soils of the Samarkand and Khorezm regions of the Republic of Uzbekistan. This plant is a valuable medicinal crop and has been used since ancient times in Central Asia. The raw material is rhizome. Recently, due to regular use, a strong reduction in the natural population of this plant has been observed. In this regard, to study the biological characteristics of Acorus calamus L. and introduce it into the culture, which is an important scientific and practical value. To do this, you must first study the anatomical structure of medicinal raw materials
