Determination of a robust metabolic barcoding model for chemotaxonomy in Aizoaceae species : expanding morphological and genetic understanding

The use of metabolic fingerprints as taxonomic markers is becoming more common. Many studies have found that by comparing the vast metabolic fingerprints of closely related species to each other, secondary metabolites tend to be unique to the samples of individual species and are identified in clust...
