Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aims to grow a new breed and to develop a quality evaluation method of Ephedra species which is required to cultivate domestic. In plant breeding, we successfully produce two types through breed E. sinica and E. likiangensis; one contains high total alkaloids, the other does not contain them. This is a first attempt to breed Ephedra species and it suggests a possible way to control the amount of components. In addition we revealed a correlation between total alkaloids and total tannin contents which is useful to evaluate a quality of Ephedra species not including alkaloids.
