Molecular genetic markers offer a number of applications in the genetic improvement of crop plants, which plays an important role in the areas of plant classification Submitted: 16 September 2017 and breeding programs. The polygenetic characters of rare species, which are difficult to analyze by Approved: 26 September 2017 traditional methods can, be analyzed easily and classified by using molecular markers. In our study, genetic Published: 27 September 2017 relationships of twenty-two paprika species were examined to estimate their genetic variations/similarities Copyright: 2017 Renganathan P, et al. This and to detect the polymorphism present within and among the paprika species by using RAPD-PCR markers. is an open access article distributed under the The results revealed that the maximum similarities among the 16 ICBD lines were 100%. The ICBD 03 had Creative Commons Attribution License, which 76% similarity compared with other ICBD lines. The CC01 had comparatively low similarity with ICBD forms permits unrestricted use, distribution, and re- (30%), followed by EC01 (28%), TI - Evaluation of genetic diversity in germplasm of paprika (Capsicum spp.) using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers JF - Journal of Plant Science and Phytopathology DO - 10.29328/journal.jpsp.1001010 DA - 2017-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/evaluation-of-genetic-diversity-in-germplasm-of-paprika-capsicum-spp-hYI5r82t4G DP - DeepDyve ER -
