title: [Study on marking method for germplasm evaluation of Pinellia ternata].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Setting a valuable method of Pinellia ternate to provide references for germplasm evaluation of medicinal plant.
  
  
  METHODS
  Nine germplasms were collected from seven primary cultivated or wild areas and were planted in field using randomined complete experimental design. Several important value were selected to give a general evaluation with marking.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In all collected materials, according to integrated mark, the first two exellent germplasm is Anyue 93.1, Yixian 87.5, which showed better characters.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In the light of standard that whose mark exceeds 80 can be used as good germplasm, Anyue and Yixian materials are recommended.
