Description

Deqiang Ren and coauthors built molecular identity cards for cultivated Dendrobium officinale orchids in Guizhou Province in a 2026 genetics study. Using the published genome, the team mined simple sequence repeat sites with dedicated software and designed markers, finding over 1.36 million candidate repeats at an average of 136 per scaffold. Single-letter repeats dominated at about 64 percent of motifs found.

Selected primers profiled cultivated plants, and amplified fragments were digitally encoded with origin details into QR-coded identity cards. Growers and regulators gain a traceability tool for breeding, standardized production, and quality control of this medicinal orchid. Each plant line gets its own code, much like an ID card, so seed stock can be checked at each step from field to shelf in trade.
