In Cambodia, medicinal plants are often used to treat various illnesses. However, the identities of many medicinal plants remain unknown. In this study, we collected 50 types of traditional Cambodian medicinal plants that could not be identified by their appearance from a domestic market. We utilized the DNA barcoding technique, combined with the literature survey, to trace their identities. In the end, 33 species were identified at the species level and 7 species were identified at the genus level. The ethnopharmacological information of 33 medicinal plants was documented. The DNA barcoding technique is useful in the identification of medicinal plants with no previous information.
在柬埔寨,药用植物常被用于治疗各种疾病。然而,许多药用植物的身份仍然未知。在本研究中,我们从国内市场收集了50种无法通过外观鉴定的柬埔寨传统药用植物。我们利用DNA条形码技术,并结合文献调查,来追踪它们的身份。最终,在物种水平上鉴定出33个物种,在属水平上鉴定出7个物种。记录了33种药用植物的民族药理学信息。DNA条形码技术在鉴定没有先前信息的药用植物方面很有用。
