Abstract
The efficiency of RAPD markers for Fragaria genotype DNA fingerprinting and the estimation of genetic relatedness was evaluated.
Thirteen cultivars of Fragaria × ananassa Duch. and two wild species, Fragaria indica Andr. and Fragaria vesca Linn. were analyzed with twenty 10-bp primers.
Only thirteen yielded scorable polymorphic amplification patterns based on discernible bands, however, no single primer out of these thirteen could produce a unique fingerprint for all the fifteen genotypes.
Cluster analysis based on UPGMA separated the fifteen Fragaria genotypes into two major groups, with the thirteen cultivars and Fragaria indica in a group separate from Fragaria vesca. The mean genetic distance among the genotypes was 36 % implying that large part of the genome is not similar among the genotypes.
Genetic diversity studies could not be related to pedigrees due to a lack of information about the same.
