Population authentication of the traditional medicinal plant Cassia tora L. based on ISSR markers and FTIR analysis

Abstract Cassia tora is a plant of medicinal importance. Medicinal plants from different localities are believed to differ in their therapeutic potency. In this study, six populations of C. tora with different eco-geographical origins were investigated genotypically (ISSR) and phytochemically (FTIR)...
