Table 7 Analysis of selected ten species. Average inter-specific K2P distances for four loci from chloroplast genome involving 10 species that were successfully resolved by each locus

From: The loci recommended as universal barcodes for plants on the basis of floristic studies may not work with congeneric species as exemplified by DNA barcoding of Dendrobium species
