Testing the potential of proposed DNA barcodes for species identification of Zingiberaceae

摘要

In 2009,the Consortium for the Barcode of Life(CBOL) recommended the combination of rbcL and matK as the plant barcode based on assessments of recoverability,sequencing quality,and levels of species discrimination.Subsequently,based on a study of more than 6600 samples belonging to 193 families from seven phyla,the internal transcribed spacer(ITS) 2 locus was proposed as a universal barcode sequence for all major plant taxa used in traditional herbal medicine.Neither of these two studies was based on a deta...
