Abstract:
Objective: The contents of five main components in Polygala tenuifolia from different habitats were determined, which provided certain data support and theoretical basis for the quality evaluation system of P. tenuifolia. Methods: The contents of polygalaxanthone III, 3,6’-disinapoyl sucrose, polygalacic acid, senegenin and tenuifolin of roots from different wild samples were determined by HPLC. Then SPSS 20.0 and SIMCA 11.5 were used for difference analysis, correlation analysis, hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), and principal component analysis (PCA). Results: The content of the five main components in wild P. tenuifolia samples from different habitats was significantly different. The 20 samples were placed into two clusters (I, II) by HCA and PCA. Cluster I comprised three samples with higher content of 3,6’-disinapoyl sucrose, polygalaxanthone III, senegenin and tenuifolin from Weinan, Xianyang in Shannxi Province, and Xinjiang in Shanxi Province, whereas cluster II contained the other 17 samples. Conclusion: The results showed that the main components of P. enuifolia from Weinan, Xianyang in Shannxi Province and Xinjiang in Shanxi Province were significantly higher than other origins, and which provided a reference for the quality control, selection of excellent germplasm and cultivation bases of P. tenuifolia.
