Abstract The article presents the results of ecological and biochemical studies of wild rosehips, May rose and Prickly rose (R. majalis Herrm, R. acicularis L., respectively), selected according to the growing principle in different climatic zones. Three types of zones in the Krasnoyarsk Territory (subtaiga, forest-steppe, and south-taiga) were taken as the selected plant ranges. The studied plants are considered as a potential source of a biologically active complex of the antioxidant action. The chemical structure of plants was analyzed taking into account climatic conditions during the search period. Studies show that with the deterioration of the growing conditions, the antioxidant complex is enriched with ascorbic acid. The studies of the biochemical structure of the rosehips of the studied plants showed a difference in the ratio and quantitative accumulation of substances related to the antioxidant complex, depending on the geographical location of the selected distribution areas, as well as on the climatic parameters of the crop year. A comparative analysis of the two types of rosehips made it possible to identify more productive for introducing into the culture and prospects for introducing plant fruits into the formulations of fortified foods.
