Abstract
⺠The Xinan district in China is the presumed site/center of origin of red-flowered Camellia species. ⺠The Huanan district might be considered as the secondary site/center of origin. ⺠Camellia saluenensis and Camellia reticulata are the most primitive species. ⺠The process of biosynthesis evolved from: 3,5-di-O-glucosylation to 3-O-glycosylation; 3-O-sambubiosylation to 3-O-glycosylationl; and p-coumaroylation to non-esterification.
