Summary Various DNA fingerprint probes were applied to Carica papaya and other Carica species for both identification and genetic analysis.Each of the Carica papaya cultivars is characterized by a specific DNA fingerprints pattern. Various Carica species also have specific patterns which distinguish them from one another. Band sharing levels were used to estimate the relatedness between the various Carica species.Genetic analysis of 11 progeny from a cross between the Carica papaya cultivars 17/82 and 112 suggests that application of DNA fingerprinting to Carica papaya breeding, could make the process more efficient. Genetic analysis of the DNA fingerprint bands revealed no linkage or allelic relationship among the bands analyzed, indicating that these loci are not clustered in the Carica genome. |
