摘要

Based on literature sources and the authors' field surveys in the past 20 years (particularly in 2008 and 2009), a checklist of cultivated plants of Yunnan (Southwest China) was compiled. It contains 1,701 taxa belonging to 1,562 different species, 837 genera and 190 families. The alphabetically ordered articles for the taxa contain the botanical name, the plant family, Chinese name and folk names, details of plant uses, information about the plant's regional distribution, places of origin, and references to relevant, mostly Yunnan literature sources. The checklist provides a useful tool for the exploration of plant genetic resources and may be equally interesting for agronomists, horticulturists, botanists, ethnobotanists and others who are interested in cultivated plants.
