Research on Resprouting and Regeneration of Rattan:Progress and Prospects
Rattan is an important non-wood forest product with multiple purposes in China,which plays a significant role in alleviating the shortage of timber resources,increasing farmers'incomes,and promoting international trade.At present,the rattan industry is facing problems in its development,such as resource shortage and insufficient supply.Strengthening the research on resprouting and regeneration of rattan is an important way to enhance the resource supply capacity.This paper reviews the rattan's characteristics of sprouting,elucidates the influencing factors to rattan sprouting,and proposes that the future research should focus on morphology and anatomy of rattan,patterns of physiological and biochemical changes,material distribution pattern,artificial promotion of sprouting and renewal,and applications of molecular biology,artificial intelligence and other means to improve the technology for rattan sprouting.The study aims to provide references for efficient development and utilization of rattan.
