Resumo(s)
Cynara cardunculus L. (cardoon) is a wild species of the Mediterranean basin and is highly
appreciated due to its rich nutritional value and versatile industrial applications. It is widely known
that environmental conditions, such as air temperature, humidity, and solar radiation, among others,
play a crucial role in plant phenological variations and the chemical composition and bioactive
properties of different plant tissues of cardoon. This study applied several statistical methods to
uncover the variations in biomolecules of different cardoon tissues collected in Greece over the
growth cycle. The influence of the different seasons on the species is evident, resulting in a clear
discrimination between the samples harvested throughout the growth cycle. In addition, the observed
fluctuations in chemical composition are consistent with each vegetable tissue’s functions and the
plant’s different physiological processes. This work allows for a better understanding and knowledge
of the species, encouraging more profitable and sustainable use of all the plant parts.
