is the endangered plant species of the genus in the family Sterculiaceae. In the study, the complete genome was 162,421bp in length, including of two inverted repeats (IRA and IRB, 25,572 bp), separated by a large single-copy region (LSC, 90,754 bp) and a small single-copy region (SSC, 20,523 bp). The genome annotation reveals a total of 132 genes, including 37 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, and 87 protein-coding (PCG) genes.

- The plant is a unique, endangered species in the Opiliaceae family, known for its high economic value as a food source in China, although it faces challenges in propagation.
- Researchers found that the seeds exhibit physiological epicotyl dormancy, meaning they remain inactive for a time before germinating, and identified optimal conditions for germination, such as a warm 28 °C environment.
- The study introduces methods to break this dormancy using a combination of warm and cold treatments along with the application of gibberellic acid (GA), enhancing the chances of successful seed germination.
