Abstract
Objective:
To study the taxonomy of Caprifoliaceae.
Method:
Using chemotaxonomical methods to discuss the distribution characteristics of chemical constituents in Caprifoliaceae family.
Results:
Iridoids and flavonoids were confirmed as the characteristic constituents of Caprifoliaceae family.
Conclusion:
Though there are great deviations among the genera of Caprifoliaceae family, it is not recommended to separate genus Sambucus and genus Viburnum from Caprifoliaceae family.
