The invention relates to the field of
biotechnology and discloses an agilawood production method. The method comprises the steps of first drilling a hole in a
trunk of
aquilaria malaccensis or
aquilaria sinensis, enabling an agilawood
inducer formed by
plant hormones, inorganic salt and
phenethyl alcohol to be added dropwise into the tree in a transfusion mode, then sealing the hole, adding the agilawood
inducer dropwise at an interval of 1-2 months, performing treatment for 3-24 months in total, then
cutting brown oily matter and yellowish-brown discolored
xylem in the
trunk, and obtaining agilawood after
drying in the sun. The
plant hormones are one or more than two of
methyl jasmonate,
ethephon and 6-BA; and the inorganic salt is one or both of
sodium chloride and
magnesium chloride. Components of the agilawood
inducer are adjusted on the basis of an existing agilawood inducer, a
trunk defense
system is excited, related enzymes for synthesizing agilawood chemical components are generated and act on
phenethyl alcohol, the trunk generates related chemical components in the agilawood, and finally the agilawood is formed by accumulation. According to the method, not only are contents of agilawood oil and sesquiterpenes in the agilawood oil improved, but also contents of
alcohol-soluble extracts are improved.
