Plant habitus and the creation of secondary metabolites in the chamomile plants are depended on the endogenous and exogenous factors. An activity of these factors is reflected in the biomass production, flower drug production, content and composition of essential oil and some other characteristics of chamomile stands. This study presents the genetic and environmental variation of essential oil and its sesquiterpene composition (/-/- alpha -Bisabololoxide A, /-/- alpha -Bisabololoxide B, /-/- alpha -Bisabolol and Chamazulene) in natural growing chamomile population in the East-Slovakian Lowland in comparison with the breeded varieties, which are cultivated in Slovakia and Poland. These results are showed there is a Bisabololoxide chemo type B of chamomile population. The breeded chamomile varieties upon high content of main compounds belong to the chemo type C group. Composition parameters of essential oil from cultivated chamomile in Poland show the chemo type A.
