Abstract

Understory cultivation pattern of medicinal plants is a kind of planting mode which makes full use of land resources, light, and heat resources. This planting mode is under the forest on the basis of fully understanding the growth environment of medicinal plants and using the principle of the symbiosis of forest medicine. The understory planting mode plays a positive role in the protection and sustainable utilization of forest resources, plants diversity, and ecological environment. Therefore, this planting mode has become a popular choice for the development of forest industry. This review mainly focus on the research progress in understory planting mode of medicinal plants, including the advantages of understory planting, the influence of understory planting on forest ecosystem, and the factors affecting the understory cultivation of medicinal plants. And it also proposes the possibility of optimizing the cultivation conditions of planting patterns of medicinal plants under forests through integrated analysis of metabolomics and transcriptomics. This review provides guidance and suggestions for related research on the sustainable development of understory planting medicinal plants and the rational utilization of forest land resources.

期刊介绍： Agroforestry Systems is an international scientific journal that publishes results of novel, high impact original research, critical reviews and short communications on any aspect of agroforestry. The journal particularly encourages contributions that demonstrate the role of agroforestry in providing commodity as well non-commodity benefits such as ecosystem services. Papers dealing with both biophysical and socioeconomic aspects are welcome. These include results of investigations of a fundamental or applied nature dealing with integrated systems involving trees and crops and/or livestock. Manuscripts that are purely descriptive in nature or confirmatory in nature of well-established findings, and with limited international scope are discouraged. To be acceptable for publication, the information presented must be relevant to a context wider than the specific location where the study was undertaken, and provide new insight or make a significant contribution to the agroforestry knowledge base
