Abstract: Bupleurum sikangense, a new species discovered in 2011, is abundant in the Hengduan Mountains of China, and has the potential for a new origin of the crude drug Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri). A convenient method is therefore desired to differentiate it from the allied species. In this study, we found a unique insertion (AAATATCCTACATA) in B. sikangense by comparing its whole chloroplast genome with those of the other twenty-one Bupleurum species and based upon the insertion we designed a pair of species-specific primers (sxkF/R). With the primers, we established a Sequence Characterized Amplified Region (SCAR) detection method, which reached a successful rate of 100% in identifying B. sikangense, providing a useful tool for its further exploitation. |
