Technologie pěstování Kotvičníku zemního (Tribulus terrestris L.) a jeho využití
NEUMANN, Jaroslav
This bachelor thesis is about a plant named Puncturevine (Tribulus terrestris), its substances, which are contained and about its possible usage in medicine. Another chapters describes some substances which we can find in a whole plant. The most important substances are saponins, phytosterols and flavonoids. Saponins are most popular for their aphrodisiatic effects, flavonoids for fighting illnes and phytosterols for decreasing cholesterol in blood plasma. Quantity of these substances is highly dependent on the area where, or how the plant is grown and if elicitors were used. In the practical part I found out if tribulus is known amongst people and how to grow it in greenhouse.
