For the economically important species Calendula officinalis, a fast identification assay based on high-resolution melting curve analysis was designed. This assay was developed to distinguish C. officinalis from other species of the genus and other Asteraceae genera, and to detect C. officinalis as an adulterant of saffron samples.
For this study, five markers (ITS, rbcL, 5' trnK-matK, psbA-trnH, trnL-trnF) of 10 Calendula species were sequenced and analyzed for species-specific mutations. With the application of two developed primer pairs located in the trnK 5' intron and trnL-trnF, C. officinalis could be distinguished from other species of the genus and all outgroup samples tested. Adulterations of Calendula DNA in saffron could be detected down to 0.01%.
With the developed assay, C. officinalis can be reliably identified and admixtures of this species as adulterant of saffron can be revealed at low levels.
针对具有重要经济价值的金盏花物种,设计了一种基于高分辨率熔解曲线分析的快速鉴定方法。该方法旨在区分金盏花与该属的其他物种以及其他菊科属的物种,并检测金盏花作为藏红花样品掺假物的情况。
在本研究中,对10种金盏花物种的5个标记(ITS、rbcL、5' trnK - matK、psbA - trnH、trnL - trnF)进行了测序,并分析了物种特异性突变。通过应用位于trnK 5'内含子和trnL - trnF中的两个开发引物对,可以区分金盏花与该属的其他物种以及所有测试的外类群样品。藏红花中低至0.01%的金盏花DNA掺假也能被检测到。
利用所开发的方法,可以可靠地鉴定金盏花,并且能够检测出该物种作为藏红花掺假物的低水平掺混情况。
