Abstract :Suitable identification and characterisation of plants using in medicine are necessary for conservation plant resources, investigations of genes associated with desirable traits, and understanding of evolutionary relationships. Therefore, various molecular marker techniques such as RAPD, AFLP, SSR and ISSR, SNP, SCoT, ITS and SCAR have been improved to provide detail information about genomes, which were not previously possible with only phenotypic methods. This brief review represents usage of these markers for molecular diversity analyses of medically important plants.
