Study on the Bioactive Constituent and Mineral Elements of the Tibetan Medicine E'seguo from Different Regions of Ganzi Prefecture, China.

ABSTRACT: The Tibetan medicinal fruit E'seguo originates from two species, Malus toringoides (Rehd.) Hughes and Malus transitoria (Batal.) Schneid, both unique to the Hengduan Mountains. These species are predominantly found in high-altitude regions of Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province, particularly in the Xianshui River and Yalong River basins. Malus toringoides (Rehd.) Hughes is far more abundant in both resource quantity and distribution compared to Malus transitoria (Batal.) Schneid. However, the nutritional and medicinal differences between the two remain unclear, which significantly impacts the development and utilization of E'seguo resources. This study aimed to measure the mineral content, nutritional components, and medicinal properties of E'seguo from 12 differ
