Highlights
Plant extracts have great potential as a source of new medicines to many diseases such as Alzheimer disease or cancer (1)
The metabolic profiling results show that levels of flavonols, hydroxyl acids, quinic acid and all analyzed carbohydrates are highest at 12 °C
Total anthocyanins levels were highest at 18 °C and this was reflected in the results on analysis of several anthocyanins derivates with the exception of Del 3‐Ara that was significantly higher at 12 °C than 18 °C
Summary
Plant extracts have great potential as a source of new medicines to many diseases such as Alzheimer disease or cancer (1). The effects of climate on production and the quality of bilberries have been studied in a controlled phytotrone experiment using clonal material originating from Northern and Southern parts of Finland. In the experiment individual plants from two Northern clones and two Southern clones have been grown at 12° and 18 °C.
