Genetic diversity across natural populations of Dendrobium officinale, the endangered medicinal herb endemic to China, revealed by ISSR and RAPD markers
1 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
Dendrobium officinale is a rare and endangered herb with special habitats and endemic to China. Genetic diversity was examined within and among nine natural populations using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and random amplified polymorphic (RAPD) for conservation. Both molecular markers revealed a high percentage (>89%) of polymorphic bands and ISSR markers detected more diversity than RAPD markers. Analysis...
