Identification of plastome-derived mini barcodes by DNA metabarcoding and comparative effectiveness to decipher their strength and resolving power for taxonomic topology-based phylogenetic determination of Chenopodium quinoa.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Diversification of cropping systems with orphan crops directly concerns food security issues. Chenopodium species display a high degree of morphological semblance, which makes their taxonomic identification intricate and challenging. METHODS AND RESULTS: DNA barcoding of Chenopodium quinoa was made to characterize crop material imported through international trade for the prevailing cropping system....
