Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is one of the most important fiber and oil crop plants cultivated since ancient time. The flax seeds contain high amount of omega- 3-fatty acids and biologically active lignans. In spite of economic importance of cultivated flax, no information is available on its genetic variability and population structure in Iran. Therefore, we used six inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism (IRAP) markers and 15 combined IRAP markers to reveal within and among population genetic diversity in this crop plant. We used 30 randomly selected plants in three geographical populations for present investigation. AMOVA test produced significant genetic difference (PhiPT = 0.40, P = 0.010) among the studied populations and also revealed that, 40% of total genetic variability was due to within population diversity while, 60% was due to among population genetic differentiation. Gst (0.78, P = 0.001), Hedrick, standardised fixation index (G'st = 0.83, P = 0.001), revealed that the studied populations are genetically differentiated. STRUCTURE plot based on admixture model revealed that the studied populations differed extensively in their genetic content, but some degree of shared alleles occurred between them. Some adaptive IRAP loci were identified by LFMM analysis. These loci were private alleles restricted to geographical populations. Data obtained may be used in breeding and hybridization program of flax in the country.

The most promising lines showing highest seed yield with high mean performance for other yield contributing characters were identified as EC-22672, NDLS-164, NDLS-169 and NDLS-205-03-02. The genotypes exhibiting highest mean performance for different characters such as EC-22672 for seed yield per plant, SLS-50, NDL-204, Meera and NDLS-204 for early days to 50% flowering, NDLS-181 for early days to maturity, EC- 41494 for plant height, NDLS-77 for primary branches per plant, NDLS-169 for secondary branches per plant, EC-41404 for number of capsules per plant, EC-41494 for number of seeds per capsule, Shekhar for biological yield, EC-23269 for harvest index and SLS-48 for test weight.
