“…Due to the lack of management, we have blindly expanded the planting area for many years, resulting in product supply exceeding demand, as well as chaotic management and lack of regulation, make participate in the field, participate in the interests of farmers have been seriously harmed. This directly caused the quality of Chinese ginseng is uneven, lack of competitiveness in the international market, can only be sold as raw materials at very low prices to Japan, Europe and the United States and other countries [46].…”

Panax ginseng, a famous and precious traditional Chinese medicine in China, which is commonly used in the treatment of central nervous system disease, cardiovascular diseases, endocrine system diseases, cancer, and other diseases. Due to its excellent medicinal properties, it is widely used in East Asia as a Chinese herbal medicine. Especially in Korea, China and Japan, ginseng is considered as the most important of all herbs and is also known as the king of herbs. This paper aimed to review the origin and distribution of Chinese ginseng, describes the economic significance of ginseng industry to the country, and the gap between Chinese ginseng industry and Korean ginseng industry, and puts forward some suggestions, hope to provide reference for the research direction and future development of ginseng industry. 2.

“…Till 2013, the global market of ginseng products is estimated to be more than USD 2000 million with P. ginseng taking the largest proportion, followed by Panax quinuefolius , P. notoginseng , and P. japonicus 20 . In 2016, fresh ginseng output in China was 28,900 tons, leading to about USD 7500 million value in Jilin ginseng industry 41 . As the demand for ginseng products increases, ginseng cultivation and alternative approaches to produce ginseng products have become hot research topics 42 .…”

Ginsenosides are a series of glycosylated triterpenoids which belong to protopanaxadiol (PPD)-, protopanaxatriol (PPT)-, ocotillol (OCT)- and oleanane (OA)-type saponins known as active compounds of Panax genus. They are accumulated in plant roots, stems, leaves, and flowers. The content and composition of ginsenosides are varied in different ginseng species, and in different parts of a certain plant. In this review, we summarized the representative saponins structures, their distributions and the contents in nearly 20 Panax species, and updated the biosynthetic pathways of ginsenosides focusing on enzymes responsible for structural diversified ginsenoside biosynthesis. We also emphasized the transcription factors in ginsenoside biosynthesis and non-coding RNAs in the growth of Panax genus plants, and highlighted the current three major biotechnological applications for ginsenosides production. This review covered advances in the past four decades, providing more clues for chemical discrimination and assessment on certain ginseng plants, new perspectives for rational evaluation and utilization of ginseng resource, and potential strategies for production of specific ginsenosides.

“…Moreover, ginseng also has high production value. According to statistics in 2016, China’s Ginseng output reached 28,900 tons, creating an output value of $7.5 billion for the ginseng industry in Jilin Province, ranking the first position ( Li et al., 2019 ). In recent years, a variety of active ingredients have been isolated and identified from ginseng, mainly ginsenoside, polysaccharide, volatile oil, amino acid, polyacetylene, alkaloid, as well as a small amount of salicylic acid amine, organic acid, non-saponin water-soluble glucoside, maltol and its derivative glucoside ( Liu et al., 2020 ).…”

Panax ginseng, as the king of Chinese herb, has significant therapeutic effects on obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, fatty liver disease, colitis, diarrhea, and many other diseases. This review systematically summarized recent findings, which show that ginseng plays its role by regulating gut microbiota diversity, and gut microbiota could also regulate the transformation of ginsenosides. We conclude the characteristics of ginseng in regulating gut microbiota, as the potential targets to prevent and treat metabolic diseases, colitis, neurological diseases, cancer, and other diseases. Ginseng treatment can increase some probiotics such as Bifidobacterium, Bacteroides, Verrucomicrobia, Akkermansia, and reduce pathogenic bacteria such as Deferribacters, Lactobacillus, Helicobacter against various diseases. Meanwhile, Bacteroides, Eubacterium, and Bifidobacterium were found to be the key bacteria for ginsenoside transformation in vivo. Overall, ginseng can regulate gut microbiome diversity, further affect the synthesis of secondary metabolites, as well as promote the transformation of ginsenosides for improving the absorptivity of ginsenosides. This review can provide better insight into the interaction of ginseng with gut microbiota in multiple disorders and ginsenoside transformation.
