Abstract
Objective: To explore the potentiality of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique for the differntiation of wild and cultivated Ginseng.Methods: DNA templated were extracted from wild and cultivated Ginseng of the crude drugs that were identified by morphology, and RAPD technique was applied to produce electrophoresis pattern. Results: Among the 80 primers screened, one was able to generate reproducible band, characteristic RAPD marker band which was unique to each of wild Ginseng samples was identified. Conclusion: The results demonstrated that RAPD marker technique could effectively authenicate wild and cultivated Ginseng samples.
