Assessment of genetic diversity in Jute (Corchorus olitorius L.) under rain fed condition

Characterization of sixteen jute genotypes, from Corchorus olitorius L. and Corchorus capsularis L. using jute specific SSR marker attained a high polymorphism value of 92.20%. A total of 171 different alleles were amplified by 27 primer pairs with a mean of 6.33 ± 2.04 alleles per locus. The genetic diversity was also relatively high (0.81 ± 0.06). The Un-weighted Pair-group Method with Arithmetic averages (UPGMA) cluster analysis of the 16 jute genotypes produced a dendogram, which was in concordance with known information. The study reinforces the utility of SSR primers for providing useful and high levels of markers for individual plant genotypes even with a narrow genetic base.

Plant Growth Characteristics

Plant growth characteristics were observed for 12 morphotypes of Corchorus olitorius planted in the field. Two commonly used varieties in Nigeria were subjected to increasing nitrogen fertilizer rates. Extensive variations in measured leaf, stem, and root growth confirmed genetic diversity among morphotypes. Thus, fresh shoot harvest l00 kg N/ha at 3 kg/ha seed rate for the lanceolate was 17.44 t·ha–1, the serrate-type at the same seed rate required N at 200 kg·ha–1 to produce 18.19-ha harvest.

Fibre Yield

An experiment was conducted to examine the magnitude of genetic diversity and characters contributing to genetic diversity among 81 tossa jute genotypes. Cluster analysis based on Euclidean squared distances and ward’s method, the genotypes were grouped into ten distinct clusters. Analysis reveals that stick weight contributes maximum to the phenotypic diversity (65.52%) followed by green weight (13.64%) and fibre yield (10.10%). Among the clusters Cluster IX recorded highest mean fibre yield (19.91g) followed by Cluster VII (18.94g) and these clusters also recorded high mean values for plant height, basal diameter, green weight and stick weight. The highest inter- cluster distance was 186.80 (between clusters II and X) followed by 161.26 (between clusters IV and X), indicating the wide genetic diversity among these clusters. The highest intra-cluster distance was observed in cluster II (20.34) and the lowest in cluster X (3.17). The average inter-cluster distances were higher than the average intra-cluster distances, which shows the presence of wide genetic diversity among the genotypes of different clusters than those of the same cluster. The first two principal components, whose Eigen values are greater than one, accounted for 74% of the total variation among the five characters. The information obtained from diversity analysis is useful in planning further breeding programme for tossa jute improvement.
