Recently, the International Biopharmaceutical and Biotechnology Society 2011 Forum was held in Hong Kong. Researchers from Shanghai and Hong Kong and South Korea released an important research result, which is to prove that the effect of calendula can replace Cordyceps sinensis.

The cost-effectiveness of Cordyceps sinensis is extraordinarily expensive, but the cost of taking nearly RMB 3,000 per day makes it prohibitive for most people. In recent years, Hong Kong-Shanghai medical experts have devoted themselves to research and finally found a substitute for Cordyceps sinensis - calendula. This kind of traditional Chinese medicine belonging to the genus insect fungus, except its efficacy is very similar to Cordyceps sinensis, the price is only three hundredth of the Cordyceps sinensis, the content of heavy metals is far lower. Some Chinese medicine practitioners have replaced Cordyceps sinensis with calendula, and researchers have cracked the genetic map of calendula, which is expected to be further applied in the study of biomedicine.

Professor Chen Yiping of the Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine who had discovered the medicinal value of Cordyceps sinensis in the 1980s, said that the clinical effect of the calendula is good and the price is lower. For example, she said that the cost of Chinese caterpillar fungus in the Mainland is about RMB 3,000 per day, but only RMB 10 for calendula.

Experts formed by the Shanghai Pan-Asian Academy of Life Sciences and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have recently cracked the gene map of Calendula officinalis and have registered it on the International GeneBank. Professor Yang Duo of the Institute of International Life Science Research Institute of Pan Asia International Research Institute in Hong Kong said that Calendula has a very good genetic structure stability, and its mutation gene is less than 1%, far lower than the variation rate of Cordyceps 10%. The research team estimates that the research results will help explore the artificial cultivation of marigold flowers and biotechnological approaches to medicinal directions.
