Abstract:

Rosmarinus officinalis and Ferula assafoetida are two plant species that have yet to be barcoded. By barcoding these plant species we set out to better understand their DNA as well as draw connections between the two. We hypothesize that because these two plant species vary in families, it will be unlikely that there will be similar DNA shared between the two.
