Analysis of the Genetic Diversity in Citrus (Citrus spp.) Species Using SSR Markers

چکیده مقاله:

Abstract Determination of genetic diversity level is important in clarifying genetic relationships, characterizing germplasm and the registration of new cultivars. In this study, genetic variation among 56 accessions (G1~G56) of Citrus including several undefined local or native genotypes and some known varieties in Jiroft, Kerman province, Iran was investigated using SSR markers. In total, 12 SSR primers produced 54 alleles. The lowest number of alleles was observed on cAGG9 locus with 2 alleles and the highest number of alleles was observed in TAA41 locus with 8 alleles. Polymorphic Information Content (PIC) varied from 0.19 to 0.37 with mean of 0.28. The percentage of heterozygosity per marker detected in our samples ranged from 25% to 96% with an average of 67%. Grouping of the accessions using Jaccard similarity coefficient and based on the Neighbor-Joining method assigned the 56 accessions into four major clusters. The SSR data indicated a high relationship between G2 and G41 (unknown natural types) with grapefruits (Citrus paradisi) (G50 and G51), G17 (unknown natural type) with orange (C. sinensis) (G56) and G40 (unknown natural type) with pummelo (C. grandis) (G49). Unidentified genotype G43 in a single-accession cluster didn’t show any close molecular similarity to control samples [mandarin (C. reticulata), pummelo, sweet orange, sour orange (C. aurantium), etc.]. Mandarin, pummelo and citron (C. medica) were clustered into three particular groups as major species of Citrus. Also, our results demonstrated that SSR markers can be useful in evaluating citrus genetic diversity and in classifying accessions to phylogenetic groups based on their genetic similarity values.

Investigation of Genetic Diversity and Structure Analysis of Different Citrus Genotypes Using ISSR Markers

In breeding programs, it is necessary having knowledge of the relatedness and genetic diversity in germplasm pools. The spread of cultivated regions and the high levels of production indicates citrus importance in the global economy. Therefore, 110 citrus genotypes were evaluated using 12 ISSR markers. Overall, 154 polymorphic bands were scored with an average of 12.8 alleles per primer. The po...

Genetic diversity analysis of groundnut genotypes using SSR markers

Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.), an important oilseed crop is a rich source of oil and protein. Molecular marker technologies are the effective tools and they are used for the assessment of genetic variability because they are not influenced by the environment. Among the molecular markers, Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) has proved to be the most powerful tool for variety identification in groundn...

Investigation the Genetic Diversity of Arabian Horses and their Different Strains Using SSR Markers

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Among the country's horse breeds, the Arabian horse has the largest population. Arabian horses are very beautiful and resistant to harsh environmental conditions and are mostly bred in the southern regions of the country. Due to the large population of this breed in the country, it has given rise to several genera that may be genetically distinct. ...
