Knowledge of genetic relatedness among accessions of germplasm is necessary for the development of breeding strategies to produce improved cultivars.The present investigation on Hippophae rhamnoides was carried out to assess its genetic variability in Himachal Pradesh,India,by employing morphological and RAPD markers.Different areas of Himachal Pradesh were surveyed and eight sites were finally selected.Twenty four genotypes were selected for further studies,i.e.,three genotypes from each site.On the basis of morphological studies,the genotypes of the Ropa site(Kinnaur)were considered elite genotypes.To assess the variability at the molecular level,RAPD patterns were studied by random primers.The total number of bands amplified was 607,out of which 487 bands were identified as polymorphic,depicting 80.23 per cent variability.Six unique bands were produced from three primers(OPA-05,OPA-10 and OPD-08)specific for five genotypes,including three genotypes of the Ropa site,Kinnaur District.
Knowledge of genetic relatedness among accessions of germplasm is necessary for the development of breeding strategies to produce improved cultivars. The present investigation on Hippophae rhamnoides was carried out to assess its genetic variability in Himachal Pradesh, India, by employing morphological and RAPD markers. Different areas of Himachal Pradesh were surveyed and eight sites were finally selected. Both genotypes were selected for further studies, ie, three genotypes from each site. On the basis of morphological studies, the genotypes of the Ropa site (Kinnaur) were considered elite genotypes. To assess the variability at the molecular level, RAPD patterns were studied by random primers. The total number of bands amplified was 607, out of which 487 bands were identified as polymorphic, depicting 80.23 per cent variability. Six unique bands were produced from three primers (OPA-05, OPA-10 and OPD-08) specific for five genotypes, including three genotypes of the Ropa site, Kinnaur District.
