Abstract:
ObjectiveThe evaluation system for landscape exploitation and utilization of wild herbaceous flower re-sources in Qianjiang was constructed in order to provide references for improving the exploitation and utilization efficien-cy of wild herbaceous flower resources in Qianjiang and other areas with similar conditions.MethodAccording to the characteristics of wild herbaceous flower resources in Qianjiang area,a southeast area in Chongqing,a landscape exploita-tion and utilization evaluation system for wild herbaceous flower resources in Qianjiang was constructed by Delphi investi-gation,analytic hierarchy process and Yaaph 10.1.ResultThe evaluation system for landscape exploitation and utiliza-tion of wild herbaceous flower resources in Qianjiang consisted of constraint hierarchy with three subsystems and standard hierarchy with eleven evaluation indexes.By applying above mentioned evaluation system,80 kinds of wild herbaceous flower resources were evaluated in Qianjiang. The comprehensive evaluation results showed that the wild herbaceous flowers such as Dendranthema indicum,Senecio scandens,Viola philippica and Oxalidaceae oxalis could be used as the first choice of landscape plant resources in Qianjiang rural tourism demonstration.Other wild herbaceous flowers such as Agrimonia pilosa,Gnaphalium affine,Abelmoschus sagittifolius and Pharbitis purpurea also had high scores.They had high exploitation and utilization value,which could be used in afforestation and beautification of urban and scenic spots in Qianjiang.ConclusionThe evaluation system for landscape exploitation and utilization of wild herbaceous flower re-sources in Qianjiang is feasible and practical,which can be used as the evaluation tool of wild herbaceous flower resources in Qianjiang and other areas with similar conditions.
