Rapid identification of Amaranthus caudatus and Amaranthus hypochondriacus by sequencing and PCR-RFLP analysis of two starch synthase genes

Introduction The genus Amaranthus includes approximately 60 species that grow in many areas of the world. All Amaranthus are drought-resistant C4 photosynthetic plants that can

Article Description

This work intends to provide an updated and extensive overview on the PCR-based methods for fish and fishery products authentication. Various techniques such as PCR-sequencing, Multiplex-PCR, PCR-RFLP, PCR-SSCP, RAPD, Real-Time PCR and PCR lab-on-a-chip are described and discussed. Moreover, commercial PCR kits for fish species identification are provided in this review. These methods could allow consumers protection against fraudulent practices in the fishery industry and enforce national and trans-national laws and regulations.
