Abstract
Genuine Danshen medicinal material comes from the dry roots and roots talks of Danshen, a Labiatae plant. With decreasing wild resources, the supply of medicinal Danshen is already unable to meet the demand. Presently, more than 40 species (including mutants and variants) from the Salvia genus have been found whose roots and roots talks can be used as Danshen.
