The specific DNA barcodes based on chloroplast genes for species identification of Orchidaceae plants

Abstract DNA barcoding is currently an effective and widely used tool that enables rapid and accurate identification of plant species. The Orchidaceae is the second largest family of flowering plants, with more than 700 genera and 20,000 species distributed nearly worldwide. The accurate identificat...
