Abstract:DNA barcoding is an indispensable taxonomic tool for plant species identification. The present research successfully amplified the four coding regions of plastid namely; matK, rpoB, ndhJ, and accD, sequenced, and submitted it to NCBI Genbank after verification. This study evaluated the significance of single (matK, rpoB, ndhJ, and accD) and two-locus plastid loci (rpoB+matK, ndhJ+matK, accD+matK) and examined their abilities for species identification and phylogenetic construction of Elaeocarpaceae plants.
