| Summary: | The study aims to investigate whether the multielement analysis result can be used as a fingerprint to identify the geographical origin of Wuchang rice. The element contents of rice and soil samples from three regions in China (Wuchang, Qiqihar, and Jiamusi) were analyzed. The concentrations of 16 elements (Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, Zn, As, Rb, Sr, Cd, and Pb) in 194 rice samples and 112 soil samples from the harvest season in 2013 and 2014 were determined. The analysis of variance and linear discriminant analysis were performed to analyze the variation among regions and rice genotypes and classify the geographical origins of rice. Only the element of Cu showed significant differences among different genotypes. In the discriminant analysis, the overall correct identification rates of the rice samples obtained in 2013 and 2014 were, respectively, 96.6% and 89.6% and the overall correct identification rate for Wuchang rice reached 100%. |
