AbstractWe present here a review of the use of molecular markers and cytogenetic data, applied to the detection of plant biodiversity. We mentioned a few examples of application of these tools in the investigation of taxa belonging to the families of monocotyledonous Iridaceae and Poaceae, which are the subject of scientific research of the authors of this review.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
