摘 要 ：从四川石棉县采集的巨花雪胆(Hemsleya gigantha)的根茎中分到2个新化合物，命名为雪胆素G和巨花雪胆皂苷B，通过化学方法和波谱方法鉴定了它们的结构。另外13个已知化合物分别为葫芦素类和雪胆皂苷类化合物，其中β-香树脂醇(3)为首次从该属植物中得到。

Abstract:The study reviewed the information/evidences on archaeology,historic references,linguistics,plant genetics and ethnobotany concerning the origin of tea cultivation.Tea cultivation occurred in Sichun province at least before Han Dynasty (206 BC.220 AD.).Indigenous people in Yunnan province appeared to start to gather tea leaves from their surrounding natural forest very long time ago.Today‘s rich tea varieties resulted from the contributions from the domestication by several nationalities in China.The definite conclusion for the origin of tea cultivation requires new evidences.
