Evaluating the impact of ecological factors on the quality and habitat distribution of Flos using HPLC and the MaxEnt model.

Introduction: The quality of traditional Chinese medicine is based on the content of their secondary metabolites, which vary with habitat adaptation and ecological factors. This study focuses on (LJF), a key traditional herbal medicine, and aims to evaluate how ecological factors impact its quality.

Methods: We developed a new evaluation method combining high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) fingerprinting technology and MaxEnt models to assess the effects of ecological factors on LJF quality.

Predicting the Potential Distribution of under Climate Change Scenarios Using a Maximum Entropy Model.

, as one of the Traditional Chinese Medicinal materials, possesses a variety of pharmacological activities and high medicinal value. However, in recent years, the wild resources of have been severely depleted due to global climate change and human activities, and artificial cultivation faces problems such as unstable yield and active ingredient content. This poses a serious obstacle to the development and utilization of its resources.

Codonopsis radix: a review of resource utilisation, postharvest processing, quality assessment, and its polysaccharide composition.

Codonopsis radix is the dried root of . (Franch.) Nannf.

Improvement in the quality and productivity of Codonopsis pilosula seedlings by dazomet soil fumigation.

Dazomet is a dry powder formulation that releases toxic gas containing methyl isothiocyanate, which controls soil-borne pests and weeds, improving crop yields when applied to moist soils. To explore the efficacy of dazomet fumigation in the cultivation of the perennial herb Codonopsis pilosula, four typical cultivars (G1, G2, W1 and TCK) in Gansu Province were selected for seedling cultivation after soil fumigation (F) by dazomet, and non-fumigated soil was used as a control (CK). The experiments took 2 years to complete.

Niche divergence at the intraspecific level in an endemic rare peony (): A phylogenetic, climatic and environmental survey.

Ecological factors have received increasing attention as drivers of speciation but also in the maintenance of postspeciation divergence. However, the relative significance of the responses of species to climate oscillations for driving niche divergence or conservatism in the evolution of many species that pass through diverse environments and limited geographical boundaries remains poorly understood. (one of the ancient species of ) comprising two subspecies called subsp.

Phylogenetic relationships and molecular evolution of woody forest tree family Aceraceae based on plastid phylogenomics and nuclear gene variations.

The forest tree family Aceraceae is widespread in the northern hemisphere and it has ecological and economic importance. However, the phylogenetic relationships and classifications within the family are still controversial due to transitional intraspecific morphological characteristics and introgression hybridization among species. In this study, we determined the evolutionary relationships and molecular evolution of Aceraceae based on plastid phylogenomics and two nuclear gene variations.

Characterization of the complete plastid genome of , an endemic tree species in China.

is an ecologically and economically important tree species in China. In this study, we characterized its whole plastid genome sequence using the Illumina sequencing platform. The complete plastid genome size of is 156,039 bp in length, including a large single-copy [LSC] region of 85,760 bp, a small single-copy [SSC] region of 18,139 bp, and a pair of inverted repeats [IRs] of 26,070 bp.

Evolutionary Analysis of Plastid Genomes of Seven L. Species: Implications for Sequence Divergence and Phylogenetic Relationships.

Plant plastomes play crucial roles in species evolution and phylogenetic reconstruction studies due to being maternally inherited and due to the moderate evolutionary rate of genomes. However, patterns of sequence divergence and molecular evolution of the plastid genomes in the horticulturally- and economically-important L. species are poorly understood.

Characterization of the whole plastid genome sequence of (Pinaceae), an endangered endemic conifer in China.

Van Tiegh. (Pinaceae) is a rare and endangered endemic conifer in China. In this study, using the Illumina sequencing platform, we firstly characterized its whole plastid genome sequence.
