Recent Advances in Study of Signal Transmission of Secondary Metabolism of Medicinal Plants
Secondary metabolite of medicinal plants is basis for clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine,which is also an index of evaluating the quality of Chinese medicine.Secondary metabolite is closely related to the environment,and signal molecular act as the bridge for mediation of environment factors and secondary metabolism of medicinal plants,therefore the reveal of signaling molecules and the transduction mechanism between environment factors and the secondary metabolism of medicinal plants is an important aspect to clarify the formation of medicine quality.In this paper,the study of signal molecular and signal transduction mechanisms of secondary metabolite of medicinal plant in recent years were summarized,and the signal transduction mechanism of secondary metabolic inducing by environmental were also summarized,for the purpose of providing references for the researchers engaged in related research.
