 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 16 China’s Progress in the genus Begonia [Abstract] The literature method of tracking the Chinese Begonia plant taxonomy, plant resources and chemical constituents and biological activity of the analysis summarized the research that should be Chinese Begonia plant species distribution, the system features used, etc. a variety of technical means to study dynamics at home and abroad for more in-depth investigation and summary of the establishment of a relatively well-developed system for further study of the genus Begonia effective development and utilization of laying a solid foundation. [Keywords:] Begonia; plant classification; resources; chemical composition; biological activity Chinese Begonia is a kind of economic value of the larger flowers of plants, but also the long-term widespread use of a medicinal, food and feed value of the national plant. This article describes the domestic and foreign scholars of Chinese Begonia system taxonomy, geographic distribution, molecular biology and chemical composition and biological activity of the research progress and future research were prospected. A study of plant taxonomy 1.1 System Studies 1.1.1 Begoniaceae kinship system, the status of undergraduate complex, with its branches within the lateral membrane placenta of the genus (Hillebrandia) and species (Begonia are some of the species), and lateral head of the ovary placenta membrane under the bit Loasaceae subjects showed parallel trends. Seed brings a rare or non-endosperm formed between the lateral membrane Loasaceae Division and the general purpose of non-endosperm seeds placenta type of transitional phase. Closest relatives are Datiscaceae Branch, they are a unisexual flower, ovary lower position, lateral membrane placenta and endosperm oil, etc., very similar to [1 ~ 3]. 1.1.2 Genus and its classification system [1 ~ 3] Begonia Begoniaceae Begonia L. attached to the Begoniaceae, the Swedish botanist Linnaeus in 1742 in order to B
