Genetic diversity of Lychnophora pinaster Mart. P1
Lychnophora pinaster Mart. (Asteraceae) is an endemic plant species of the Brazilian Cerrado that has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. The indiscriminate use and destruction of its habitat put the species at risk of extinction. Previous studies of L. pinaster demonstrated the need for greater geographic coverage. In this study, levels of genetic diversity of the species were accessed using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) molecular markers on Lychnophora pinaster Mart.
