Title: Characters of Lacquer Fruits and Wax Content of Sumac
Abstract: 15 fine varieties of Toxicodendron vernicifluum and Toxicodendron succedaneum(geographical population) were collected from Yunnan,Guizhou,Shanxi and other provinces,and the characters of their fruits were analyzed with the methods of representative sampling and random sampling.The results show that Sumac has got a rich store of genetic material and lacquer fruits have a certain relation in between the content of their wax layer and the mass of their inner skin,namely,the mass being bigger leads to the content of wax being lower;and that there is a significant correlation between the content of their wax layer and the index of their fruit shape,namely,the index being bigger coincides with the content of wax being lower.In the selection of sumac varieties for their production of wax,we should breed those lacquer fruits whose shape index is between 0.6~0.8.
