Ginkgo biloba, a deciduous tree of ginkgo family and ginkgo genus, is also known as white fruit tree, Gongsun tree, duck foot tree, etc. Ginkgo biloba is the oldest relict plant among the existing seed plants. All other plants of the same class have been extinct and are known as living fossils. Ginkgo biloba was born hundreds of millions of years ago. Now there are few and scattered Ginkgo biloba, and hundreds of years old trees are rare.
Ginkgo tree grows slowly and has a very long life. Under natural conditions, it takes more than 20 years from planting to bearing ginkgo fruit, and a large number of fruits can be produced after 40 years. Therefore, it is also known as “Gongsun tree”. It is the old longevity of the tree, which was called “ginkgo” in ancient times. Ginkgo tree has appreciation, economic and medicinal value. Ginkgo tree is the oldest gymnosperm left behind after the Quaternary glacier movement. It is one of the most precious tree species in the world. Therefore, it is regarded as a “living fossil” in the plant world.
Resistant to plant diseases and insect pests.
Plant disease and pest control is an important technical measure for agricultural high yield and harvest, and the development and utilization of biological pesticides is the top priority of this measure. The development and utilization of Ginkgo outer seed coat as a biological pesticide is the goal of producing green food and ensuring human health. The acid components in the outer seed coat of Ginkgo biloba and ginkgotoxin are the main components for the production of biological pesticides. They have good application effect in the prevention and control of plant diseases and pests, wide control range, no environmental pollution, no pesticide residues, and are safe for human and livestock. Long-term use of this pesticide will not produce drug resistance to pests.
