Abstract
The molecular genetic index of Amaranthus albus species was investigated using the technology of random amplification regarding the polymorphic DNA (RAPD, where DNA fragments are included and multiplied by means of using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The National Centre for Biotechnology Information Gene Bank Graphics (NCBI) was utilized to determine the nitrogenous bases related to the two species in question via PCT using the primers ITs1 and ITs4. Results demonstrated that the nucleotide sequence of the worldwide isolate matches the Amaranthus albus, which was deposited in NCBI and registered under the numbers OP846011.1 and OP846010.1. The percentages of matching for the two isolates were 97 and 99%. Through adopting the molecular evidence represented through the genes, the phylogenetic tree data confirmed that there is a close relation between the Amaranthus albus in question (in Iraq) and the ones in South Korea, China, Canada and USA registered in NCBI.
