A quantitative analysis of these substances in common bilberry shoots, harvested in the Bryansk and Vladimir regions in 2016-2017, and the Tver region in 2017 showed similar results. The obtained data can be used in the comparative study of the metabolome of medicinal plant, the development of regulatory documentation for common bilberry shoots.
