摘要 Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge (Jimo) is one of the most popular and valuable plant species in many countries, including China, Korea, and Japan. The current commercial products such as Sagan, Chog-chag-yag, and Shig-ban-pung which are most similar to Jimo roots, were used for more reliable authentication method. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of the trnL-F region has been proved to be an appropriate method for the identification of species in the A. asphodeloides genus. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) has been identified in Jimo, Sagan, Chog-chag-yag, and Shig-ban-pung. The specific PCR primers were designed from the SNP to differentiate the A. asphodeloides (Jimo) from Sagan, Chog-chag-yag, and Shig-ban-pung via multiplex PCR. The established multiplex-PCR method for the rapid detection of the Jimo in a single reaction was determined to be effective for the differentiation of Jimo (A. asphodeloides). We therefore present an effective method for the genetic identification of the A. asphodeloides.
