In marker assisted breeding programs, determination of genome polymorphism and development of suitable molecular markers is of the greatest importance. The aim of this research was development of RAPD markers, which will enable quick and cost efficient DNA polymorphism analysis among closely related sugar beet genotypes. The research was conducted on twelve sugar beet genotypes from population of closely related genotypes. Reactions with eight RAPD primers and five primer mixtures resulted in stable and reproducible bands in all samples, with 44 polymorphic and 14 monomorphic loci, and average of 6.13 bands per primer. In two-primer reactions nine new polymorphic bands were detected. Polymorphism information content (PIC) for each primer was calculated, while genetic variation was estimated by calculation of the number of polymorphic loci and their percentage, observed number of alleles, effective number of alleles, and Nei?s gene diversity. An unweighted pair group arithmetic mean method (UPGMA) cluster analysis showed that samples were divided in two groups with relatively high coefficient of similarity. The presented results showed that RAPD markers can be suitable for genetic diversity analysis in breeding material with high levels of homology and homozygosity.

Knowledge on intra-specific genetic variation of an organism is important for its genetic improvement and conservation. In order to estimate genetic variation and relatedness in eleven tropical Sugar beet varieties we used randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. The RAPD analysis was performed using six decamer random primers, which amplified a total of 63 DNA fragments of which 43 (68.25%) were found polymorphic. The average polymorphic bands per primer was 7.17 and the overall gene diversity was 0.24. Among the 43 polymorphic loci studied, 2 were specific for 2K 310, 1 for Shubraha, 1 for Natura and 1 for HI-0473 varieties. Pair wise genetic distance and similarity indices were ranged from 0.12-0.51 and 66.73-92.91, respectively. Cauvery and 2K 310 were found to be the most distantly related with a higher genetic distance value (GD = 0.51) and lower similarity index (SI = 66.73), while Aranka and Serenada were the most closely related with their lower GD (0.12) and higher SI(92.91) values. In an unweighted pair group method of arithmetic mean dendrogram constructed on the basis of genetic distances, the eleven varieties grouped into two main clusters: 2K 310 alone was in one cluster whereas 10 other varieties grouped into a major cluster. This indicates that 2K 310 was distantly related with each of the other varieties. Distantly related varieties based on estimated genetic variation could be selected for future breeding program that could result in improvement of this crop.

Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to discriminate among 16 commercial cultivars of cabbage (Brassica oleracea L. Capitata Group). A set of 18 decamer primers was selected from 100 random sequences and used to characterize cultivars and to evaluate distances. The selected primers produced 105 (54%) polymorphic bands ranging in size from 100 and 2500 base pairs, out of a total of 195 bands, which allowed for discrimination of all cultivars. Similarity indices between cultivars were computed from RAPD data, and ranged from 0.72 to 0.87 with an average of 0.82. Unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA) cluster analysis revealed two groups, one formed by two cultivars recommended for summer cropping, and the other by 14 cultivars. This large group was additionally divided into two subgroups. RAPD analysis provides a quick and reliable alternative for the identification of cabbage cultivars and for determination of the relationships among them.

Novel Approach

New challenges that food production is facing, requires novel approach inagricultural strategy. The scissors of growing demand for food and the limits of theEarth's resources are forcing plant breeders to run for the new borders, utilizing allthe available genetic variation in order to create fruitful and economically soundcultivars. Aegilops sp. (Poaceae) is a potential source of genetic variation for wheatimprovement. RAPD marker analysis was used in order to distinguish and evaluatedifferent genotypes of Aegilops sp. population samples from the collectiongathered during few years’ expeditions in South Adriatic, along the coastal, littoraland the inland parts of Montenegro. Ten randomly amplified polymorphic DNAmarkers (RAPDs) were tested: OPA-05, OPA-08, OPB-06, OPA-02, OPA-07,OPA-25, OPB-07, OPB-18, OPC-06, OPC-10 to examine genetic structuring on 18samples of 6 populations of different Aegilops sp. According to global AMOVA,75% of total gene diversity was attributable mostly to diversity within population(ΦPT =0.205 p=0.001), indicating that the groups of studied goat grass populationswere seemingly to differing genetically. In contrast, 25% of the variation camefrom variation among populations. According to PCoA, the distribution of 18 goatgrass accessions by Principal Coordinate Analysis shows 3 distinct groups. PCoaxis 1, PCo axis 2, and PCo axis 3 account for 20.8%, 18.2% and 14.1% of thevariation, respectively. The results showed that RAPD markers could be aconvenient tool for investigating genetic variation and for detecting geneticstructuring of populations. Genetic variability formed under natural selection wasentrenched.

Molecular Genetic Diversity

Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to study the molecular genetic diversity analysis among six BARI released lentil varieties viz. BARI masur-1, BARI masur-2, BARI masur-3, BARI masur-4, BARI masur-5 and BARI masur-6. PCR amplified products were visualized on 1.0% agarose gel and the band for each primer were scored. Ten RAPD markers were used in this study. Out of them 7 primers showed amplification of 53 DNA fragments with 60.37% of them being polymorphic. The highest number of polymorphic loci was noticed in the variety BARI masur-3. The same variety also showed maximum Nei’s gene diversity value (0.0552). The highest Nei’s genetic distance (0.5002) was observed in BARI masur-1 vs. BARI masur-5 whereas, the lowest genetic distance (0.0692) was found in BARI masur-1 vs. BARI masur-2. The unweighted pair group method of arithmetic mean (UPGMA) dendrogram based on Nei’s genetic distance grouped the six cultivars into two main clusters. BARI masur-1, BARI masur-2 and BARI masur-3 were in cluster I and BARI masur-4, BARI masur-5 and BARI masur-6 were in cluster II. The cultivar BARI masur-4 was closest to the cultivar BARI masur-6 with the lowest genetic distance (0.0972) and the highest genetic distance (0.5002) was found between BARI masur-1 and BARI masur-5. The RAPD markers were found to be useful in molecular characterization of lentil varieties which could be utilized by the breeders for the improvement of lentil cultivars.

Olive Cultivars

Eighty-two Spanish olive cultivars from the World Germplasm Bank of the Centro de Investigación y Formación Agraria (CIFA) Alameda del Obispo in Cordoba (Spain) were analysed by RAPD markers to assess their genetic relatedness and to study patterns of genetic variation. The dendrogram based on unweighted pair group cluster analysis using Jaccard's index included two major groups that consisted mostly of cultivars from the southern and central part of Spain. Clustering together of cultivars from the Levante zone was also observed. The pattern of genetic variation among olive cultivars from three different Spanish zones (Levante, central and Andalusia) was analysed by means of the analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA). Although most of the genetic variability was attributable to differences of cultivars within each zone (95.88%), significant φ-values among zones (φst = 0.041; p < 0.001) suggested the existence of phenotypic differentiation. These results are consistent with the predominantly allogamous nature of Olea europaea L. species. Significant values of φst for the pair Andalusia/Levante indicate the presence of differentiation. The negative value of φst observed in the case of the Andalusia/central pair suggests that some varieties from central Spain are more similar to the Andalusian ones than to the varieties of their own geographic area, and vice versa.

Genetic variation is a principal concern for the plant breeders. Genetic variation and relationship among high yielding rice varieties viz. Binadhan 4, Binadhan 5, Binadhan 6, Binasail, BRRI dhan28 and BRRI dhan29 were analyzed using four decamer random primers. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) amplified 22 RAPD markers, of which 18 (81.82%) were polymorphic. The proportion of polymorphic loci and the gene diversity values were 59.09% and 0.25 for the Binadhan 4; 59.09% and 0.21 for Binadhan 6; 54.55% and 0.23 for Binasail; 54.55% and 0.19 for BRRI dhan29; 50.00% and 0.19 for Binadhan 5 and 45.45% and 0.18 for BRRI dhan28, respectively. The coefficient of gene differentiation (Gst) across all loci was calculated as 0.35 reflecting the existence of high level of genetic variation among the six modern rice varieties. UPGMA dendrogram based on Nei’s genetic distance segregated the six high yielding rice varieties into two clusters: all four mutant varieties viz. Binadhan 4, Binadhan 5, Binadhan 6 and Binasail formed one cluster and two varieties of BRRI grown in boro season, BRRI dhan28 and BRRI dhan29 grouped together in another cluster. Among the mutants, two boro season varieties, developed from the same parent, Binadhan 5 and Binadhan 6 grouped together with genetic distance of 0.10. Therefore, RAPD offer a reliable method to evaluate genetic variation and relatedness among the high yielding rice varieties.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjpbg.v21i1.17042

Thirty-four extant pawpaw [Asimina triloba (L.) Dunal] cultivars and advanced selections representing a large portion of the gene pool of cultivated pawpaws were investigated using 71 randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers to establish genetic identities and evaluate genetic relatedness. All 34 cultivated pawpaws were uniquely identified by as few as 14 loci of eight primers. Genetic diversity of the existing gene pool of cultivated pawpaws, as estimated by Nei's gene diversity (He), was similar to that of wild pawpaw populations. The genetic relatedness among the cultivated pawpaws examined by UPGMA cluster analysis separated 34 cultivars and selections into two distinct clusters, a cluster of PPF (The PawPaw Foundation) selections and a cluster including a majority of the extant cultivars selected from the wild and their derived selections. The results are in general agreement with the known selection history and pedigree information available. The consensus fingerprint profile using the genetically defined RAPD markers is a useful and reliable method for establishing the genetic identities of the pawpaw cultivars and advanced selections. This also proved to be an improved discriminating tool over isozyme markers for the assessment of genetic diversity and relatedness. RAPD profiling of data presented in this study provides a useful reference for germplasm curators engaged in making decisions of sampling strategies, germplasm management and for breeders deciding which parents to select for future breeding efforts.

The Mean

PCR-RAPD markers revealed individual variation in F. ornus. A total of 122 fragments were amplified using 7 primers and of these 97 fragments were polymorphic. The percentage of polymorphic loci was between 53.3% and 74.6% with an average of 63.1%. The mean gene diversity for all populations was 0.30 and the mean Shannon?s index was 0.44. Of the total genetic variation 87% was intra-population whilst 13% was inter-population. The Mantel test revealed significant correlation between genetic and geographical distance matrice. Results herein represent the first use of molecular genetic (DNA) markers to characterize genetic variation in F. ornus populations. The partition of total genetic variance indicates a relatively restricted population differentiation as expected in outcrossing species. Present and future information on genetic structure and variability in F. ornus needs to be incorporated into strategies for the preservation of genetic resources of tree species.
