To provide some evidence for breeding excellent lines of Salvia miltiorrhiza. Contents of tanshinone II(A), cryptotanshinone, salvialic acid A and salvianolic acid B in root of S. miltiorrhiza from different populations were determined by HPLC. Total tanshinone and total salvianolic acids were determined by spectrophotometry. The biomass of individual plant from Zhongjiang of Sichuan province, content of tanshinone II(A), from Shanxi province, cryptotanshinone and total tanshinone from Zhongjiang of Sichuan province, salvialic acid A of High-Stem cultivation from Hebei province, salvianolic acid B and total salvianolic acids of tetroploid were higher than the other samples, respectively. With the value of biomass of individual plant multiplying contents of every active components as indicative constituents, the multiplying value from Zhongjiang of Sichuan province was higher than the other samples. With biomasses and effective components as indicative constituents, it suggested that S. miltiorrhiza from Zhongjiang of Sichuan province was a better derivative material.
