| Abstract: | Genetic relationship and diversity among seven cabbage cultivars were analyzed using RAPD and SSR markers. These cultivars
are of great commercial value in India and are confirmed for their reaction to black rot caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris. However, so far the extent of genetic diversity and relatedness has not been studied in these cultivars. A total of 17 selected
RAPD primers generated 90 bands, 76 of which were polymorphic (84.44%). In addition, 27 selected SSR primers generated 67
amplified bands with 59 of which were polymorphic (87.6%). Though both the marker techniques were able to discriminate the
cultivars effectively, analysis of combined data of markers (RAPD and SSR) resulted in better distinction of cultivars. By
combining both the markers, a total of 157 bands were detected of which 135 bands (85.98%) were polymorphic, i.e. an average
of 5.95 bands per primer. High level of polymorphism (> 85%) recorded with two different marker systems indicated a high level
of genetic variation existing among the cultivars. Genetic relationship estimated using similarity co-efficient (Jaccard’s)
values between different pairs of cultivars varied from 0.21 to 0.77 in RAPD, 0.42 to 0.82 in SSR, and 0.43 to 0.89 with combined
markers. A high correspondence had been recorded between the values of genetic variations generated by UPGMA, clustering,
and scatter plot diagrams. The cultivars ‘January King Sel. Improved’ and ‘Golden Acre’ are highly divergent cultivars as
demonstrated by both the marker systems. |
