General situation and utilization potential of wild plant resources in Changbai Mountain Reserve

Abstract According to the field investigation of Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve, the wild plant resources in this region were investigated in detail. Combined with the investigation of wild plant resource types, the utilization potential of wild plant resources was analyzed and evaluated in order to provide reference for the development and utilization of wild plant resources in Changbai Mountain. The results showed that the vascular plants in Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve consist of 6 classes, 47 orders, 124families, 515 genera and 1550 species. There were about 1244 species of plants that could be used as resources, among which, medicinal plant resources ranked first, a total of 1083 species, accounting for 87.06%. From the perspective of market value of resources, 1244 species of wild vascular plants in the reserve were graded, and 276 species of resource plants with high value and great significance, which were rated as 4 and 5 points, were screened out. According to the evaluation level of resource utilization potential, There were 48 species of first level, 87 species of second level, 103 species of third level, 32 species of fourth level and 6 species of fifth level. Finally, some suggestions on the protection, development and utilization of wild resources in Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve were provided.
