Abstract:
Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix is a Chinese traditional Tibetan herb, belonging to Sect. Cruciata Gaudin of Gentiana genus. Which originated from Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau and adjacent regions and had significant pharmaceutical effect on lots of disease. In this review, we summarized the research advance studies on morphologic, biochemical, and genetic diversity on this species in the past 20 years, which could provide the help for germplasm protection, identification, and evolutionary adaptation works in the future.
