Collecting and storing method of lampstand tree seed

Abstract

A method for collecting and storaging the seeds of lampstand tree includes such steps as picking up the seed pods when its color becomes yellow by 1 / 3 and it begins to crack, putting them in air-permeable bag, spreading by a thin layer for drying, covering it by a sun-shielding net, drying for 1-2 days, collecting seeds in air-permeable bags and storage at 12-15 deg.C for one year (or at normal temp. for 3-5 months). Its advantages are low cost and high germination rate.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to the collection and storage of medicinal plant seeds, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a collection and storage method for the seeds of the lampstand tree. Background technique

[0002] Alstonia scholaris (L.) R.Br., also known as duck foot tree, big dead tree, Maidanbie (Dai language), is a big evergreen tree of Apocynaceae. The lampstand tree is mainly distributed in the south and west of Guangxi and the south of Yunnan in China. It grows in low hilly and mountainous forests below 650 meters above sea level, beside Xiangyang roads and ditches. It likes moist and fertile soil, grows well near water, and is the main tree species in secondary broad-leaved forest. In Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan and Taiwan, it is mainly cultivated as a green tree species. Because the lampstand tree contains many biological medicinal ingredients such as lampstand alkali, its roots, bark and leav...

Examples

Embodiment 1

[0017] When 1 / 3 of the seed pods of each Dengtai tree turn yellow and split open, the seedlings of the Dengtai tree can be collected. The collection time in southern Yunnan is March 27. Cut off the golden part of the seed pod of the lampstand tree with scissors, and put it in a breathable bag. Spread the lighthouse seed pods collected in the field in a thin layer on the drying field for drying, and cover the lighthouse seed pods with a layer of shading net. The seeds can be collected, preferably in the morning of the next day. Put the seeds of the lampstand tree in a breathable bag and put them in a low-temperature storage room at a temperature of 12°C. The storage time is one year.

Embodiment 2

[0019] Except that the harvesting time is April 2, the drying time is 1 day, the storage temperature is room temperature, and the storage time is 4 months, other processes are the same as in Example 1.
