Popis: Intergenic spacer region 2 (ITS2) between 5.8S RNA and 28S RNA is well established genomic region for molecular identification of plant as potential universal barcode. The Present studies deals with molecular identification of Tinospora sinensis, by a unique ITS2 re- gion. Briefly, the plant genomic DNA isolated by CTAB method and targeted for amplification of ITS2 region by eukaryotic conserved primers i.e. RM5.8s1F and RM 28s R for generation of 400 bp amplicon followed by DNA sequencing. Sequence analysis by BLAST search on NCBI database and phylogenetic studies suggests 96% identity with published sequence of Tinospora sinensis, i.e. intraspecies identity and 92% identity with other species of Tinospora genera i.e. T. malabarica. Phylogenetic analysis by MEGA4.1 suggest more close relationship with Tinospora sinensis Thus, this is a first report of ITS2 based molecular detection of Tinospora sinensis from Indian soil.
