中国植物名称数据库的建设及若干问题的探讨

The Researching and Discussion on the Construction of the Database of Chinese Plant Names Index(CPNI)

中国植物物种信息数据库是中国科学院科学数据库参考型数据库,中国植物名称数据库(CPNI)是中国植物物种信息数据库最重要的组成部分,是中国植物物种信息数据库收录植物的目录和索引,也是其他数据库的参考和联系的桥梁。以《中国植物志》和《Flora of China》为基础数据来源,加上少量参考数据作为补充,设计建设了中国植物名称数据库,并从现有已建成同类数据库的评价、数据来源和数据组成,以及建库策略实现对中国植物名称数据库建设进行了分析和探讨。中国植物名称数据库是植物名称的参考型数据库,能够辅助植物学相关学科研究中关于植物名称的研究和利用。

The Chinese Plants reference database（CPRD）is a part of the Scientific Database.The Chinese Plant Names Index（CPNI）is one of the important parts of CPRD,because it is the names index of CPRD and the bridge to other plant databases.Based on the Chinese version and English version of ＂Flora of China＂,the CPNI was constructed with other little reference data.Then,the advantages and disadvantages of the databases of plant names which have been published in the world,the data resources and the construction strategies of the Chinese plant names was discussed.The CPNI is a reference database of the Chinese Plant Names which can be used on studies on plant sciences especially when the names of the plants which are studied on must be ensured.
