IDENTIFICATION OF LENS CULTIVARS IN MARKET BY MOLECULAR TOOLS: DNA BARCODING AND SSRs
Substitution of plant cultivars of high commercial value with a cheaper, lower quality one is a common fraud committed against consumers and producers. Since it is one of the most widely grown legumes, lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is suitable for such ...

Pulsatilla tongkangensis, an endemic species growing in the limited areas in Korea, is considered endangered species, and is growing in sympatric with P. koreana enabling natural hybridization. To characterize the true to the type of P. tongkangensis, we integrated morphological traits and molecular analyses of the nuclear ribosomal ITS (nrITS) and the

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

Identification of three kinds of Plumeria flowers by DNA barcoding and HPLC specific chromatogram
DNA barcoding and HPLC specific chromatogram were used to identify three kinds of Plumeria flowers respectively. DNAs extracted from the three Plumeria species were amplified by PCR with universal primers, and the psbA-trnH region was selected.

Applying DNA Barcodes to Identify Closely Related Species of Ferns: A Case Study of the Chinese Adiantum (Pteridaceae). [PDF]
DNA barcoding is a fast-developing technique to identify species by using short and standard DNA sequences. Universal selection of DNA barcodes in ferns remains unresolved. In this study, five plastid regions (rbcL, matK, trnH-psbA, trnL-F and rps4-trnS)

Herbariomics and the peculiar case of Alisma wahlenbergii (Alismataceae)
Abstract Species identification and delimitation in aquatic plants can be challenging due to their often simple, plastic, and convergent morphology. This has led to varying taxonomic opinions in many genera, including Alisma. One debated case is the narrowly endemic A. wahlenbergii, which occurs submerged in the Baltic Sea region.

An In Silico Approach for Evaluation of ITS, rbcL, and psbA-trnH for DNA Barcoding of Eugenia spp.
The genus Eugenia is known to be complex with intricate synonyms and taxonomy, and morphological identification is often unreliable due to overlapping characteristics and environmental influences, particularly in the flowers.

N2 fixation is linked to the ability to encroach in African savanna trees
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Encroachment is a globally ubiquitous phenomenon, characterised by increasing indigenous tree densities in savanna and grassland. Encroachment has been attributed to rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations fertilising tree growth and shifting the competitive balance ...
