By comparative genomic studies it was possible to establish a giant genetic system beyond one species which might be significant to tree. 比較基因組學研究結果表明，有可能將近緣種統一起來建立超越物種界限的大遺傳系統，這對於林木而言具有更重要的意義。
Meanwhile, AFLP, rDNA waxy sequence and four cpDNA sequences were employed to clearify the relationships between C. reticulata polyploid complex and its related species. 同時為進一步明確滇山茶多倍體複合體與近緣種的關係，利用擴增片段長度多態性分析和序列分析等分子系統學手段對滇山茶多倍體複合體及相關的近緣種進行了研究。
