Abstract :
“DNA barcode” which is a DNA sequence-based identification system, supports that may be used one locus or several loci for species identification. Otherwise, it implies sequencing a standard region of DNA for species identification. In animal kingdom, cytochrome c oxidase 1 (called coxI or COI) gene was used as universal barcode while there was no consensus that which region or regions should be used for barcoding plants. In plants, mitochondrial genes have low nucleotide substitution rates. Thus, these genes were not convenient for plant barcoding. Nowadays, different plant working groups in CBOL (Consortium for the Barcode of Life’s) tested various putative barcode regions in plastid and nuclear genome. The most of them were plastid regions such as matK, rbcL, rpoB, rpoC1 in coding regions, atpF–atpH, trnH–psbA, and psbK–psbI in noncoding regions. Besides, nuclear gene regions such as ITS1 and ITS2 (Internal Transcribed Spacer) were used widely. In this study, we explore the latest plant barcoding studies and tendencies in scientific world.
