Character Mutation and Classification of Chinese Epimedium Medicinal Plants after Introduction

To explore the effects of environmental factors on traits of Chinese Epimedium medicinal plants,the variation traits of 12 plant species were observed,which were introduced to Guizhou with around 3-year normal growth.Results:After transplantation,the Epimedium plants traits variation mainly displays in plant height,flowering and fruiting date,trichome,petals and anthers color.Some species traits are very stable,almost no change. Meanwhile,the experimental taxonomy study is conducted on Chinese Epimedium medicinal plants.
