 Assessment of Genetic Diversity in Podophyllum peltatum by Molecular Markers
The genus Podophyllum is a rich source of podophyllotoxin, an aryltetralin lignan that has important biological activities (Leander and Rosen 1988) and is the precursor of semisynthetic chemotherapeutic drugs such as etoposide, teniposide, and etopophos (Stähelin and Wartburg 1991; Imbert 1998).
Podophyllum peltatum is found throughout the wooded landscape of the eastern half of North America (Meijer 1974).
Podophyllum peltatum is known to have a high degree of self-incompatibility and while it is possible that the slightly different genotypes might be the result of pollination events it is very unlikely.
