摘要
[Objective] The study aimed to analyze the ITS sequences of nrDNA from Rhodiola alisa and investigate the difference of evolution rate between nrDNA and trnS-trnG and rpl20-rps12 sequences of cpDNA(chloroplast DNA).[Method]Total DNA was extracted from silica-dried leaves of R.alsia by using modified CTAB method.With the extracted DNA sample as template,nrDNA ITS region was amplified,then purified and sequenced.In addition,the yielded ITS sequences were also compared with the known trnS-trnG and rpl20-rps12 sequences of cpDNA from R.alsia.[Result]The ITS sequence of nrDNA from R.alsia was 701 bp in length,of which 13 variable sites were found with a percentage of 1.85%.Of the 13 variable sites,8 were caused by point mutations,5 were the results of insertions or deletions.The(A+T)content and(G+C)content were 46.9% and 53.1%,respectively.The nucleotide diversity(π)was 0.004 27.[Conclusion]The ITS region of nrDNA from R.alsia was more conservative and evolved more slowly than the trnS-trnG and rpl20-rps12 sequences of its cpDNA.
