Introduction Piper kadsura is a well-known medicinal plant that belongs to woody liana, possessing high therapeutic and economic value. The market demand of P. huge, but its wild resources are scarce artificial cultivation methods have not been established, which leads situation with strong contradiction imbalance between supply demand. Methods In this study, 303 sample distribution data for in China were collected, 33 environmental variables related terrain, climate soil analyzed the suitable habitats during various periods predicted by MaxEnt model ArcGIS software, aiming provide basis scientific effective utilization resources. Results results indicated precipitation temperature significant factors . primary influencing potential driest quarter (Bio17), annual (Bio12), mean diurnal range (Bio2), (Bio7). Among them, (Bio17) was most influential variable 100.68 274.48 mm. current mainly located coastal areas eastern southern China, especially Guangxi, Guangdong, Zhejiang Fujian, total area 51.74 × 104 km2. Future change global warming will lead reduction under scenarios. Especially SSP585 scenario, highly be significantly reduced 89.26% 87.95% compared present 2090s. Discussion Overall, these findings can useful references areas’ determination resources, optimization selection quality materials on

Trachelospermum jasminoides (Lindl.) Lem. is a well-known herb with important medicinal and economic values. It widely used in the treatment of inflammations China. As global climate change intensifies, ecological niche plants has correspondingly shifted. Therefore, understanding distribution suitable habitats for T. under different conditions great significance its cultivation, introduction, conservation. This research utilizes MaxEnt model combination Geographic Information System (ArcGIS) to analyze present future potential habitat distributions jasminoides. Based on 227 documented occurrence points 15 variables, results emphasize that key environmental limitations influencing optimal are precipitation during coldest quarter, mean temperature driest warmest seasonality (standard deviation × 100), human impact index. At present, combined area highly amounts 15.76 104 km2, predominantly situated East Central scenario forecasts, within SSP1-2.6 scenario, total projected increase relative current situation. Nevertheless, SSP2-4.5 SSP5-8.5 scenarios, anticipated initially rise then decline. The center mainly concentrated provinces Hunan Jiangxi, centroid shifting southeastward compared findings this offer valuable insights effective preservation, sustainable use resources.

Camphora longepaniculata is an endangered evergreen tree listed as National Class II Protected Tree Species in China, highly valued for its medicinal and economic importance. Currently, research on this species has primarily focused pharmaceutical properties, while potential distribution responses to climate change remain insufficiently explored. In study, 36 valid occurrence records 11 environmental variables were utilized predict assess response future scenarios. The MaxEnt model revealed that the current of C. largely aligns with predicted suitable habitats, primary range located Sichuan Province. Furthermore, identified habitats be predominantly concentrated Shaanxi Provinces under change. Among variables, annual precipitation (bio12), minimum temperature coldest month (bio6), elevation (dem) most influential, collectively contributing over 70% model’s predictive accuracy. Future projections compared suggest a northward expansion longepaniculata, although Province core habitat Kernel density analysis points indicated largest concentration near Basin, reinforcing importance region stronghold species. Based results kernel analysis, situ conservation, artificial cultivation, establishment wild protected areas local germplasm banks are recommended stable, such parts Yunnan Guizhou Provinces. This study not only sheds light geographical but also provides scientific basis development targeted conservation strategies
