Abstract
Project Summary The project will develop the use of DNA techniques for the identification of Gonystylus (Ramin) and Dalbergia (Rosewood) species. It will broaden the range of sample types that can be identified to include heat treated and heavily processed products such as plywood. It will make the findings and procedures available to UK customs officials.
