General Uses Top
Suggest a correction!Common products:
- Dried herbarium vouchers (stems, leaves, inflorescences) of Delphinium scabriflorum are deposited in major herbaria, such as the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (E) and the National Herbarium of Nepal (KATH), and are searchable via public herbarium databases for taxonomic reference.
- Fresh or silica‑dried leaf tissue is harvested for DNA extraction using standard CTAB protocols, yielding high‑quality genomic material for downstream molecular work.
- Dried flower spikes are employed in teaching collections to illustrate the species’ distinctive scabrous perianth and overall inflorescence architecture.
Scientific and model organism use:
- Material of D. scabriflorum has been used in molecular phylogenetic investigations of the tribe Delphinieae (Ranunculaceae), with nuclear and chloroplast sequence data reported in peer‑reviewed studies.
- Voucher specimens linked to the sequence data are catalogued in public herbarium databases and serve as taxonomic anchors for phylogenetic analyses.
- The species’ morphological characters, such as scabrous flower surfaces and inflorescence architecture, are employed in comparative anatomical studies that complement molecular data.
Properties relevant to use:
- Tissue durability: The herbaceous stems and leaves retain structural integrity after drying, facilitating long‑term herbarium preservation.
- Flower spike morphology: Dried inflorescences maintain their shape and the characteristic scabrous perianth, which is useful for visual identification and teaching.
- DNA extraction suitability: Fresh or silica‑dried leaf tissue yields high‑quality genomic DNA using standard CTAB protocols, supporting downstream molecular work.
Standards and regulation:
- Herbarium specimen data for D. scabriflorum are commonly formatted using the Darwin Core biodiversity data standard, enabling integration with global databases such as GBIF.
- No specific national or international regulations currently restrict the collection or export of this species beyond general plant material export rules; local permits may be required where the species occurs.
Sustainability and sourcing:
- D. scabriflorum is not cultivated on a commercial scale; scientific material is typically obtained from herbarium specimens or limited field collections, and sustainable sampling practices are recommended to avoid over‑harvesting of wild populations.
