ABSTRACT
In order to study the accumulation of Fritillaria thunbergii cultivar, peimine content in Xiaye, Kuanye, Duozi and Xiaosanzi bulbs of different sizes and parts was determined by HPLC-ELSE. The results indicated that the peimine content varied significantly with the cultivar type, the size and part of bulb. The distribution laws of peimine were as follow: Xiaosanzi > Duozi > Xiaye > Kuanye, small-size bulb > big-size bulb, core bud > scale. The peimine yield per plant in Duozi was the highest.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of low temperature vernalization on metabolism change of carbon and nitrogen of Isatis indigotica.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The Yunnan and Beijing I. indigotica seedlings with six leaves were vernalized at 4 degrees C for 25 days, and the metabolism indicators of carbon and nitrogen were measured.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>There appeared a dramatic increase in the soluble sugar content, reducing sugar content and soluble protein content in response to the low temperature, after termination of vernalization it reached the maximum, however, starch and total nitrogen concentration decreased significantly, after termination of vernalization it reached the minimum.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The high C/N value can promote the low temperature vernalization of I. indigotica.</p>
