Biochemical diversity of Immortelle (Helichrysum italicum /Roth./G. Don) populations in Croatia

Immortelle (Helichrysum italicum /Roth./ G. Don) is a perennial plant species of the genus Helichrysum and the family Asteraceae. It is spread in the Mediterranean region inhabiting the sea coast as well as the mountains up to 2, 200 meters above sea level (Galbany-Casals et al., 2011). Immortelle is used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries. It is an economically important medicinal and aromatic plant in Croatia, and in recent years the demand for H. italicum essential oil has increased. This study aimed to determine the biochemical diversity of 18 immortelle populations in Croatia.
