Abstract
This paper reviews the achievements made at home and abroad on molecular evolution of plant CHS genes during he past 15 years.Combining with our study results on Orchid CHS genes,this paper sums up the molecular evolution and functional divergence of Orchid CHS genes and reveals the ubiquitously existed phenomenon and mechanism of sequence evolution accompanied by functional differentiation of CHS in plant kingdom.The relationship between molecular evolution of CHS,biological evolution and natural selection is also discussed.
