无患子研究进展概述

Research Progress on Sapindus mukorossi

无患子Sapindus mukorossi为无患子科无患子属落叶小乔木,广泛分布于我国淮河以南、台湾和东南亚地区,具有十分广泛的利用价值。本文概述了无患子种质资源分布及遗传多样性、植树造林、栽培技术、重要化学成分皂苷和油脂的分离、提取技术和应用等方面的国内外研究进展,并对今后无患子发展提出以下建议:开展无患子优良株系选育和无性快繁技术、加大无患子皂苷生物技术以及油脂提取工艺技术等方面的研究,为进一步深入研究和开发无患子的利用价值提供新思路,有效促进无患子产业的发展。

Sapindus mukorossi is a deciduous arbor of the soapberry family, Sapindaceae. It has numerous applications and is widely distributed in Southern China, Taiwan and Southeast Asia. To further promote its industrialization and Rb^D, this article summarizes recent progress on the germplasm resource, genetic diversity, cultivation, forest planting, as well as the saponin and seed oil separation and extraction technology of S. mukorossi. Moreover, recommendations for further studies on breeding, propagation, saponin biotechnology and oil extraction are presented.
