Abstract In the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), thousands of plants are considered to have therapeutic value. The ambiguous use of identification mainly
morphological characteristics of many plants has resulted in the adulteration
and displacement of plant products which undermine their therapeutic value
and weak documentation of plant resources. The aims of this study were therefore
to evaluate genetic variability and explore the phylogeographic architecture for
Saudi medicinal plant samples using rbcL and matK genes as barcodes for genomic identification. The matK and rbcL sequences collected for these samples were
used as key markers for examining the relationship between Saudi medicinal… More >
