Application of Molecular Markers in Predicting Production Quality of Cultivated Cistanche deserticola

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2010
We developed a set of molecular markers in Cistanche deserticola Y. C. MA to evaluate the production quality of cultivated C. deserticola individuals. This application utilizes the inter-simple-sequence repeat (ISSR) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) PCR as molecular markers to determine the echinacoside ...
