Its main medicinal ingredients are its secondary metabolites. However,it has the characteristics of limited sources,low active ingredient content and high cost,limiting the use of D. officinale.Studying the network structure and rate-limiting steps of secondary metabolites of medicinal components of D. officinale,analyzing the secondary metabolic synthesis process,mastering the production rules of its medicinal components and carrying out gene cloning or biosynthesis,etc.are of great significance for the rational development and utilization of D. officinale resources. This paper briefly reviews the progress of the research on the secondary metabolites of D. officinale,including the detection and identification of metabolites and the identification and cloning of key metabolic enzymes.展开更多
