Abstract
The objective of this work was to verify the effect of homeopathic solutions on the growth, production of active compounds and leaf anatomy of plants Achillea millefolium L. (milfolhas). The rhizomes were planted in pots maintained under greenhouse. The growth variables measured were: height, number of leaves, length and width of the largest leaf, length and width of the smallest leaf, number of sprouts, fresh mass and it evaporates of the aerial part and root. It was described the morphological traitis: tannin content, chlorophyll tenor the and b, ratio chlorophyll a/b and flavonoids content. It was considered in the first trial hypothesis of patogenesia and earsal, Sulphur 3CH did influence tannin content as function of time treatment: Natrum muriaticum, Kali carbonicum, Silicea, Sulphur 3CH and control (water). The homeopathic solutions caused little effect or variables (growth height, number of leaves, length and width of the smallest leaf) but they caused dry matter accumulation of aerial part. The tannin content and chlorophyll the and b were influenced by the homeopathies. The flavonoids content was oscillatory in agreement with the solutions. The anatomical descriptors were: thickness of the epidermis, area of parenchym paliçádico, of colorless parenchym, of colengym, of vascular bunches, besides the total area of the epidermis. The application of the solutions homeopathic exercised affect the production of secondary metabolitos, although the anatomical organization has not been altered.
