TITLE:

EFFICIENT MICRO-ORGANISMS IN THE GROWING OF MEDICINAL PLANTS: QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE EVALUATION OF ITS SECONDARY METABOLITES

KEY WORDS:

Medicinal plants, cultivation, biofertilizer, efficient microorganisms.

BIG AREA: Multidisciplinar
AREA: Biotecnologia
SUMMARY:

The use of medicinal plants is part of popular therapy, contributing to the consolidation of a set of internalized skills in users and practitioners. However, with the large supply of industrialized medicines, that practice has decreased in recent years. In addition to obtaining medicinal plants being linked to extractivism, cultivation techniques are scarce, which reduces standardization and guarantees final quality. In this context, with a view to increasing productivity and obtaining healthier products, biofertilizers appear as an alternative to chemicals. Efficient Micro-organisms (ME), used as biofertilizers, consist of associations of beneficial micro-organism cultures, found naturally in soils and that can increase microbial biodiversity. Some studies have shown that inoculation of ME crops promotes an improvement in soil quality, especially in the synthesis of metabolites and plant development in general. In this context, the objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the application of biofertilizer based on ME on general aspects of the development of three medicinal plants (Thymus vulgaris, Phyllanthus niruri and Mentha piperita), to evaluate the secondary metabolites produced, to identify the bacterial species present in the biofertilizer and determine the bacterial concentration in the soil samples. The biofertilizer presented in its composition photosynthetic bacteria and lactic acid producers, especially Lactobacillus plantarum and Rhodobacter sp. Through the chemical analysis of the soils, the samples with the biofertilizer presented higher levels of P, Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe and Mn than in the control soils. In addition, the treated soils indicated a higher bacterial count and the plants cultivated in them presented more pronounced dimensions in their general parts. However, the biofertilizer containing ME did not cause positive effects on the qualitative results of the secondary metabolites, still indicating negative effects on the quantitative results related to those metabolites.
