Other claims from this paper (5)
- Method / resource Both ITS and matK barcode markers had 100% amplification and sequencing success in Coffea spp.
- Method / resource ITS had lower resolution than matK in Coffea species.
- Observation ITS efficiently discriminated Coffea liberica.
- Method / resource The matK barcode discriminated all the Coffea species examined.
- Recommendation The authors state that DNA barcoding as an authentication method will benefit the coffee industry and growers.
