The earliest original plant of Xiongqiong was Ligusticum sinense. Actually, Xixiong was the cultivation product of L. sinense. And L. chuanxiong was likely to be a gardening breed due to long-term cultivation of L. sinense. Xixiong is used as Xiongqiong in ancient times, but now it is used as Ligustici Rhizoma et Radix.
