概述我国樟属（Cinnamomum Bl．）植物资源的地理分布与现状，近年我国樟属枝叶精油化学成分及化学类型的研究以及枝叶蒸油取脑的精油开发新途径，研究结果表明，建立单一化学类型种植基地，可确保生产高质量樟属精油，同时也能保护樟属化学类型的种质资源。

The article summarized the geological distribution and present circumstances of Cinnamomumplant resources, the researches of essential oils in their leaves and branches and the new way to exploit the camphor by distillation from this genous in recent years. It indicated that superior cinnamomum essential oil can be produced and the germplasm resources of Cinnamomum chemotypes may be protected by establishing desired chemotype bases.
