title: [Identification of fructus broussonetiae from different habitats and its confused species with clustering analysis by near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectrometry].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To provide a new method for identifying Fructus Broussonetiae and its confused species.
  
  
  METHODS
  Cluster analysis was adopted for the identification.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The method can identify Fructus Broussonetiae and the results are coincident with traditional phytotaxnomy.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  This method can be used for the rapid and accurate differentiation of Fructus Broussonetiae.
