Astragalus membranaceus Mongholicus. Astragalus membranaceus

Astragalus membranaceus var. mongholicus (Astragalus), acknowledged as a pivotal One Root of Medicine and Food, boasts dual applications in both culinary and medicinal domains. The growth and metabolite accumulation of medicinal roots during the harvest period is intricately regulated by a transcriptional regulatory network. One key challenge is to accurately pinpoint the harvest date during the transition from conventional yield content of medicinal materials to high and to identify the core regulators governing such a critical transition. To solve this problem, we performed a correlation analysis of transcriptome during the harvesting of Astragalus roots.
