Ho VT, Ngo QNg. 2017. Short Communication: Using RAPD technique to evaluate genetic diversity of longan (Dimocarpus longan) population in Vietnam. Biodiversitas 18: xxxx. Longan (Dimocarpus longan L.) is an important fruit plant in Vietnam where several cultivars and landraces are being cultivated. Presently, the identification of longan cultivars and landraces is mainly based on personal experience relying on morphological traits leading the difficulty of genetic conservation and longan breeding. In this study, genetic richness and relativeness of 36 longan accessions collected from different provinces in Vietnam were evaluated by using 30 Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers. Our results reveal that there is the large variation of genetic background of studied longan accessions with separate groups in the obtained dendrogram. We also identified the combination of different RAPD markers could help to identify 15 longan genotypes. The results from this project could provide valuable information which is necessary for classifying, identifying plant origins, breeding and conserving programs of longan in Vietnam.

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers are widely used for evaluating the genetic relationship of crop germplasm. Five different landraces of yacon (Smallantus sonchifolius (Poepp. and Hendl.) H. Robinson; Asteraceae) collected in various countries and showing different morphological traits were investigated using a total of 61 decamer primers. A total of 282 RAPD markers were scored and 28.7% of them were polymorphic at least within landraces. RAPD markers generated by one primer (OBP14) discriminated between all landraces. Markers were used to calculate genetic similarity coefficient and to build a dendrogram representing the genetic relationship between analysed landraces. The results suggest that RAPD markers could be used as a reliable tool to perform fingerprinting studies in Smallantus sonchifolius genome. This is the first report on the use of RAPDs to evaluate genetic distance and to distinguish between different landraces in yacon.

In the present study, morphological and genetic diversity is revealed among the four species of Ocimum. Among the morphological characters plant height, the number of leaves, leaf area, leaf width, leaf length, stem circumference and mitotic index studied and contributed a greater proportion of variations. RAPD markers revealed a high degree of polymorphism (88.89%) among the species of Ocimum. Dendrogram study revealed that the species O. gratissimum and O. basilicum are very closely related whereas O. kilimandscharicum and O. sanctum are distantly related in the phylogenetic history.

Assessment of genetic diversity in the available germplasm is the prerequisite for development of improved genotypes through planned breeding programmes. In the view of this Forty-eight genotypes of seedling origin guava along with 1 check (L-49/Sardar) collected and conserved at germplasm block, Main Garden, Department of Horticulture, Dr. P. D. A. University, Akola were evaluated for genetic variability and diversity based on the qualitative characteristics. The genotypes were evaluated for sixteen morphological traitsviz. tree, leaf, floral and fruit traits. Results Show considerable extent of variability amongst the 49 genotypes in each traits. A sizeable amount of intrapopulation diversity recorded can be used to identify diverse parents which can be utilized in hybridization programmes.
