Evaluation of ITS2 for intraspecific identification of Paeonia lactiflora cultivars

Biotechnology Reports, 2017
Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) is an important ornamental and medicinal plant. DNA barcodes can reveal species identity via the nucleotide diversity of short DNA segments.

Phylogenetic position and revised classification of Acacia s.l. (Fabaceae: Mimosoideae) in Africa, including new combinations in Vachellia and Senegalia [PDF]

, 2013
Previous phylogenetic studies have indicated that Acacia Miller s.l. is polyphyletic and in need of reclassification. A proposal to conserve the name Acacia for the larger Australian contingent of the genus (formerly subgenus Phyllodineae) resulted in ...

A similar phylogeographical structure among sympatric North American birches (Betula) is better explained by introgression than by shared biogeographical history [PDF]

, 2014
AimA comparative analysis of the chloroplast (cp) DNA structure of eastern North American birches (Betula) was undertaken to infer the impacts of Quaternary climate change on the phylogeographical structure of these species.LocationEastern North America ...

Phylogenetic Evaluation of Series Delimitations in Section Palmata (Acer, Aceroideae, Sapindaceae) Based on Sequences of Nuclear and Chloroplast Genes [PDF]

, 2011
Acer section Palmata (Japanese maples) is the largest section within the genus; however, series delimitations within section Palmata have not been evaluated in a phylogenetic context. Both maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood analyses of DNA sequence

Suitable DNA Barcoding for Identification and Supervision of Piper kadsura in Chinese Medicine Markets

Molecules, 2016
Piper kadsura is a vine-like medicinal plant which is widely used in clinical treatment. However, P. kadsura is often substituted by other materials in the markets, thereby causing health risks. In this study, 38 P.

Genetic transformation of Artemisia carvifolia Buch with rol genes enhances artemisinin accumulation [PDF]

, 2016
The potent antimalarial drug artemisinin has a high cost, since its only viable source to date is Artemisia annua (0.010.8% DW). There is therefore an urgent need to design new strate- gies to increase its production or to find alternative sources.

3RAD‐Guided SNP Discovery for Species Identification and Conservation of the Medicinal Southern African Tree Genus Greyia Hook. & Harv.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...

High-throughput biodiversity analysis: Rapid assessment of species richness and ecological interactions of Chrysomelidae (Coleoptera) in the tropics [PDF]

, 2016
Biodiversity assessment has been the focus of intense debate and conceptual and methodological advances in recent years. The cultural, academic and aesthetic impulses to recognise and catalogue the diversity in our surroundings, in this case of living ...

Authentication of Illicium verum using a DNA barcode psbA-trnH

Journal of Medicinal Plants Research, 2012
The objective of this research was to test an appropriate DNA barcode from four candidate barcoding loci (matK, rbcL, psbA-trnH and ITS2) for discrimination between Illicium verumand its congeneric toxic adulterants in trade. Twenty fresh samples from 8 species of the genera Illicium were collected from four areas of China, and two samples of medicinal
