Objective:To provide the reference for the identification of Dahua Hongjingtian[Rhodiola crenulata(Hook.f.et Thoms.)H.Ohba]by analyzing the base sequences of DNA bar codes of Dahua Hongjingtian and Changbian Hongjingtian[Rhodiola fastigiata(HK.f.et Thoms.)S.H.Fu]and constructing the phylogenetic tree.Methods:The fragments of internal transcribed spacer(ITS)were amplified by PCR and sequenced in two directions to obtain their sequence information after extracting the genomic DNA of three samples;MEGA 7.0 was used to compare the ITS sequences of all the samples and GenBank,a total of 21 entries,calculate the intraspecific interspecific genetic distances,and construct Neighbor-Joining(NJ)phylogenetic trees.Results:Numbers A1-A14 Dahua Hongjingtian clustered into one unit,and numbers K1-K7 Changbian Hongjingtian clustered into one unit;meanwhile,the variation of the ITS sequence information was obviously correlated with the geographic areas and environments.Conclusion:ITS sequence as DNA bar code can accurately and quickly identify Dahua Hongjingtian,which could provide an important basis for its germplasm resource identification and species identification.
