[Objective] The aim was to classify pteridophytes by using SRAP molecular marker.[Method] 27 species of pteridophytes collected from Jinyun Mountain in Chongqing were classified based on SRAP molecular marker.The tender leaves of the 27 species of city pteridophytes were use for extracting genonic DNA of pteridophytes by using improved CPAB method,and then the quality of total DNA was tested by using gel-lectro phoresis method and obsorbance method.[Result] The results of clustering analysis showed that there was close genetic relationship between Selaginellaceae and Gleicheniaceae,Equisaceae and Dryopteridaceae,Blechnaceae and Dryopteridaceae,Lindsaeaceae and Dryopteridaceae,Aspleniaceae and Athyriaceae.Close genetic relationship between Cyrtomium fortunei and Dryopteridaceae differed from traditional taxonomy that classified Cyrtomium fortunei in Dryopteridaceae,indicating that classification of pteridophytes by SRAP molecular marker technology had some differences from traditional taxonomy.[Conclusion] The results can be referred to rebuild phylogenetic relationships of pteridophytes.
