Abstract


Lobelia inflata L. is a medicinally important species of the Lobeliaceae family. It is native to North America and contains numerous piperidine alkaloids. The main alkaloid lobeline has been used as a respiratory stimulant. The aim of our studies was to follow the lobeline production of L. inflata in open field conditions. The nutrients were applied in the following methods and quantities in 2011 and in 2012: untreated (control), 50 kg/ha Nitrogen-, 100 kg/ha Nitrogen-, 50 kg/ha Mg ground fertilizers and 100 kg/ha Mg ground fertilizer. The experimental design was a randomized blocks with 4 repetitions.
