Phylogenetic relationship and genetic variation among Thaumatococcus daniellii and Megaphrynium macrostachyum ecotypes in Southwest Nigeria
Background and Objective: Thaumatococcus daniellii (T. daniellii ) and Megaphrynium macrostachyum (M. macrostachyum) are perennial, understorey herbs with similar morphological and vegetative properties. Genetic relatedness and variation among and within ecotypes of the plant species in Nigeria were studied using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR)...
