Abstract:
The paper describes the construction of a restriction profile of the Internal Transcribed Spacer II (ITS2) of Cannabis sativa L. Nuclear Ribosomal DNA, using digestion by a selected number of restriction endonucleases. The method was evaluated for false positives and it is suggested that it could be used to identify suspected Cannabis samples, by comparing their restriction profiles with the restriction profile of known Cannabis material.
