One hundred and forty-four heterogeneous tef germplasm accessions collected from 10 major tef growing areas in Ethiopia were
evaluated for 18 quantitative traits in a simple lattice design, at Holetta and Ginchi, in 2001 main growing season to study
the genetic diversity in tef. The combined analysis of variance revealed the presence of significant variation among germplasm
accessions for all traits studied. Cluster analysis revealed the overlapping of the germplasm accessions from different origin
and the accessions were grouped into eight distinct clusters of 1–78. Generalized distance square confirmed the presence of
significant genetic distance between clusters. In principal component (Prin) analysis, the first four principal components
with latent root values above one accounted for about 80.6% of the variability existing among the germplasm accessions. Prin1
constituted about 55% of the variability mainly from almost equal contribution of 10 quantitative traits, indicating that
most of the traits are equally important in tef diversity. In this study, the regions and altitudes of origin were not found
to have a substantial effect on the genetic diversity in tef germplasm. Diversity within the regions was found to be significant
and, hence, an opportunity for exploitation in tef improvement. 相似文献

An investigation was conducted to determine the extent of diversity and relationships among a worldwide safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) germplasm collection and to find out adapted accessions that can be used in an organic safflower breeding program in
Germany. A total of 468 accessions was studied under organic farming conditions at Kleinhohenheim experimental station during
the seasons of 2004 and 2005. All the accessions were evaluated for 12 phenotypic traits and three rated diseases. Multivariate
analyses have been used to measure the diversity in a subset of 200 accessions and 11 geographical regions. Generally, the
study showed that there was a large genetic variation within accessions. A coefficient of variation (CV%) for investigated
traits and diseases ranged from 2.9 to 91.0% with the highest CV was recorded for yield/m2, yield/plant and seeds/plant. The
most accessions that originated in Europe revealed relatively better performance compared to non-Europeans. High yielding,
early maturing, and disease tolerant accessions were identified. However, the low oil content (8.7–22.8%) is the primary concern
in this germplasm collection. The degree of heritability varied between 10% for lodging to 86% for plant height. Genotypic
coefficient of correlation (r
g) was slightly higher for many traits than the respective phenotypic coefficient. Oil content and seed yield/m2 were highly
significantly correlated (r
g = 0.78). The genotypic coefficient of correlation showed that selection for seeds/plant and thousand kernel weight was effective
for improvement of seed yield and oil content. The results of the principal component analysis and the clustering pattern
of accessions were consistent with the results of analysis of variance. About 78% of the total phenotypic diversity in the
germplasm was explained on the basis of four principal components and 88% of the total variation among geographical regions
was contributed by the first three principal components. The distribution of the accessions within clusters has no apparent
relationship with the geographical origin. However, many of the European accessions have a tendency to stay together. 相似文献

Patterns of geographical diversity, and the relationship between agro-morphological traits and fatty acid composition were
assessed for 193 safflower (Carthamus tinctorius) accessions representing forty countries. Accessions were assigned to eight groups based on geographical proximity. Cluster
and Principal Component analyses were performed to assess patterns of diversity among the accessions and to select the most
distant accessions from each of eight groups for analysis of randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. There was
a large amount of diversity for agro-morphological traits, fatty acid composition, and RAPD markers. Most correlations among
different traits were rather low. Plant height showed a positive correlation with days to flowering (r = 0.63**). Palmitic acid was positively correlated with stearic acid and oleic acid values, and negatively correlated with
linoleic acid (P < 0.01). Oleic acid and linoleic acid showed a strong negative correlation (r = −0.89**). The first three principal components together explained 59% of the variation, however, neither principal component
analysis (PCA) nor marker analysis revealed a clear relationship between diversity pattern and geographical origin. Accessions
from some geographical regions tended to group together, such as accessions from South Western Asia, Central Western Europe,
and the Mediterranean region. The correlation between the morphological matrix and the genetic matrix based on RAPD markers
was not significant (r = 0.027). Wide diversity in safflower germplasm indicates a considerable potential for improving this crop for both agronomic
and quality traits. 相似文献

The variability of 2420 plants of tetraploid (2n = 4x = 28, AABB genome) wheat germplasm representing 121 accessions from Ethiopia were evaluated for 23 agro-morphological traits at Debre Zeit Agricultural Research Center area, Akaki substation, during the 2003 main season using multivariate methods. This enabled to assess the extent and pattern of variation of the germplasm with respect to regions, altitude classes and species and to identify the major traits contributing to the diversity. The first three and two principal components explained about 83 and 80% of the total variance among regions and altitudinal class, respectively. In the first principal component plant height, days to heading, the length and density of the spike, and kernel color were the most important traits contributing to variation that explained about 50% of regional variance. Cluster analysis grouped the accessions into 15 clusters, with 9 accessions remaining ungrouped. Based on the observed patterns of variation, it is concluded that there exists great variation in the germplasm, which provides opportunities to be utilized for genetic improvement. 相似文献

Breeding progress in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) has been limited by a lack of genetic diversity in elite germplasm. Black raspberry cultivars have been noted for showing very few phenotypic differences and seedlings from crosses between cultivars for a lack of segregation for important traits. Despite these challenges, little molecular work has been done to explore genetic diversity and relationships in wild and cultivated black raspberry germplasm. Microsatellite, or simple sequence repeat (SSR), markers are highly polymorphic codominant markers useful for studying genetic diversity, population genetics, genetic fingerprinting and other applications. We examined genetic diversity in 148 wild and cultivated black raspberry accessions using 21 polymorphic SSR markers. Black raspberry cultivars clustered tightly and showed higher than expected heterozygosity while that of wild accessions was low. Relationships between wild black raspberry accessions were poorly resolved and regional clusters were mostly absent from our analysis. Our results indicated that wild black raspberry germplasm is a relatively untapped resource available for future breeding. 相似文献

Twenty two germplasm accessions of Cordia myxa were collected from Rajasthan and established at the field gene bank for conservation and evaluation. Morphological characterization
of 10 year-old trees for 17 traits indicated wide variations among the accessions tested. Higher number of flowers per cyme
was found in accession ACHM11 and higher pulp:stone ratio in AHCM25. Overall, AHCM22 was found to be a superior germplasm
line for most of the horticulturally useful traits among the accessions tested as it had higher percent of fruit set, pulp:stone
ratio and fruit weight. High significant positive correlation was obtained between leaf, fruit characters and pulp:stone ratio.
However, these characters were found to be negatively correlated with number of flowers per cyme. Out of 50 random decamer
primers used for random amplification (RAPD), 25 were polymorphic. Average polymorphism resolved by these markers among these
accessions was 69.8% with an average polymorphic information content of 0.43. Genetic diversity revealed by Jaccard’s co-efficient
was between 0.44 and 0.94, and three major clusters were identified among these accessions by phylogenetic analysis using
NTSYSpc-2.02e software. RAPD markers associated with leaf size and pulp:stone ratio were also identified. This study shows
the existence of high genetic diversity among these accessions. 相似文献

Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) is an important economic crop in the Bolivian Amazon. Bolivian farmers both cultivate cacao, and extract fruits from
wild stands in the Beni River region and in valleys of the Andes foothills. The germplasm group traditionally used is presently
referred to as “Cacao Nacional Boliviano” (CNB). Using DNA fingerprinting technology based on microsatellite markers, we genotyped
164 Bolivian cacao accessions, including both cultivated and wild CNB accessions sampled from the Amazonian regions of La
Paz and Beni, and compared their SSR profiles with 78 reference Forastero accessions from Amazonian cacao populations, including
germplasm from the Ucayali region of Peru. Results of multivariate ordination and analysis of molecular variance show that
CNB cacao has a unique genetic profile that is significantly different from the known cacao germplasm groups in South America.
The results also show that cultivated CNB and wild CNB populations in the Beni River share a similar genetic profile, suggesting
that the cultivated CNB is of indigenous origin in Bolivia. The level of genetic diversity, measured by allele richness and
gene diversity in the Bolivian cacao, is moderately high, but was significantly lower than gene diversity in the other Amazonian
cacao populations. Significant spatial genetic structure was detected in the wild CNB population, using analysis of autocorrelation
(rc = 0.232; P < 0.001) and Mantel tests (Rxy = 0.276; P < 0.001). This finding is also highly valuable to support in situ conservation and sustainable use of CNB genetic diversity in Bolivia. 相似文献

Iwateyamanashi (Pyrus ussuriensis var. aromatica) is one of the Pyrus species which grows wild in Japan. The number of Iwateyamanashi trees has been decreasing, so conservation and evaluation
is urgently needed. Over 500 accessions of Pyrus species collected from Iwate in northern Tohoku region are maintained at Kobe University as an Iwateyamanashi germplasm collection.
In order to investigate the genetic diversity, five SSR (simple sequence repeat) markers, developed from Japanese and European
pear were examined for 86 Pyrus individuals including 58 accessions from Iwate. These SSR loci could discriminate between all the Iwate accessions except
for 10 that bear seedless fruit, as well as determine the genetic diversity in Iwateyamanashi germplasms. High levels of variation
were detected in 41 alleles and the mean observed heterozygosity across 5 loci was 0.50 for the Iwate accessions. Seedless
accessions sharing identical SSR genotype with the local pear variety “Iwatetanenashi” were supposed to have been propagated
vegetatively via grafting. In an UPGMA phenogram, Japanese pear varieties (P. pyrifolia) were clustered into two groups with some Iwate accessions including seedless ones. Another 38 Iwate accessions were not
clustered clearly, and there was no clear relationship between these accessions and geographical distribution or morphological
characters. Allele frequency revealed that the Iwate accessions were genetically more divergent than the Japanese pear varieties.
Most Japanese pears possessed a 219 bp deletion at a spacer region between the accD and psaI genes in the chloroplast DNA (cpDNA), but other Pyrus species and two Iwateyamanashi trees did not. In the Iwate accessions, 79.3% had a deletion type cpDNA and others had a standard
type cpDNA without deletion. These results are indicative of the wide range of genetic diversity in the Iwate accessions which
include Japanese pear varieties. A combination of SSR and cpDNA analyses revealed high heterogeneity in Iwateyamanashi and
coexistence of Iwateyamanashi and hybrid progeny with P. pyrifolia. These could be reasons for the wide range of continuous morphological variation described previously. 相似文献

A total of 4,840 entries of tetraploid wheat germplasm collections representing 121 accessions from Ethiopia were evaluated
for phenologic and qualitative trait diversity. The objectives were to assess the diversity patterns of the germplasm with
respect to regions, species and altitudinal class. High values of Shannon–Weaver Diversity Index (H′) were recorded for most
traits in each region, altitudinal classes, and species. Monomorphism was also high at accession levels. Both H′ and Nei’s
gene diversity value for the entire data set (total gene diversity H
T = 0.572; the within accessions gene diversity H
S = 0.112; and gene diversity among accessions D
ST = 0.460) showed the variation for the trait is mainly among accessions/populations rather than within accessions/population.
The least mean H′ value over all the traits used for the study was obtained from released varieties (among the origin groups)
and Triticum
dicoccon (among species). Triticum
durum exhibit the highest H′ for a number of traits. Accessions collected from altitudinal class III (2401–2800 m a.s.l.) and class
II (2001–2400 m a.s.l.) showed the highest H′ values for a valuable number of traits. Thus classifications using various phenology
and qualitative traits enable to identify adaptation of a genotype and would improve the evaluation of genotype for potential
adaptation. 相似文献

Pigeonpea is an important pulse crop grown by smallholder farmers in the semi-arid tropics. Most of the pigeonpea cultivars
grown to date are selections from the landraces, with a narrow genetic base. With the expansion of the crop to newer areas,
problems of local importance are to be addressed. Hence, an economically feasible and faster germplasm evaluation mechanism,
such as a core collection, is required. This article describes the development of core collection from 12,153 pigeonpea accessions
collected from 56 countries and maintained at ICRISAT, Patancheru, India. The germplasm accessions from 56 countries were
placed under 14 clusters based primarily on geographic origin. Data on 14 qualitative morphological traits were used for cluster
formation by Ward’s method. From each cluster ≈10% accessions were randomly selected to constitute a core collection comprising
1290 accessions. Mean comparisons using Newman–Keuls test, variances’ comparisons by Levene’s test, and comparison of frequency
distribution by χ2-test indicated that the core collection was similar to that of the entire collection for various traits and the genetic variability
available in the entire collection is preserved in the core collection. The Shannon–Weaver diversity index for different traits
was also similar for both entire and core collection. All the important phenotypic associations between different traits available
in the entire collection were preserved in the core collection. The core collection constituted in the present study facilitates
identification of useful traits economically and expeditiously for use in pigeonpea improvement. 相似文献

A field experiment was conducted in 2001 at Holetta and Kulumsa, Ethiopia, to study genetic diversity in Ethiopian faba bean
(Vicia faba L.) landraces. One hundred sixty random germplasm accessions were grown in an alpha lattice design with two replications. Data
on 12 traits were collected and analyzed. Significant differences were observed among the accessions for most of the traits
(except number of pods/podding nodes) at each location even though differences pooled over location were mostly non-significant.
Cluster analysis distinguished seven diversity classes of different sizes. Accessions from the northern half of the country
(North and South Wello, North Gonder and North Shewa) were closely related while those from the southern part of the country
(Arsi) were highly diverse. Cumulative effects of a number of characters dictated differentiation of the accessions into clusters.
Some overlapping were encountered between accessions from the northern and those from the southern parts of the country. The
study revealed that accessions from different regions might have similar genetic background and those from the same origin
might also have different genetic background. Therefore, geographic diversity should not necessarily be used as an index of
genetic diversity and parental selection should be based on a systematic study of genetic diversity in a specific population.
Genetic distances between most of the clusters were significant that crosses between parents selected out of them are expected
to generate desirable progenies. Future germplasm collection, conservation and utilization strategies should put more focus
not only on inter-regional diversity in the country as a whole but also on intra-regional diversity in Arsi. 相似文献

Wild species of safflower, Carthamus oxyacanthus Bieb., is highly crossable with cultivated species, C. tinctorius L. and could be directly exploited in broadening safflower gene pool and improving the crop for biotic and abiotic stress
environments. In this study, genetic diversity among accessions of C. oxyacanthus and their relationships with cultivated safflower were evaluated using agro-morphological traits and polymorphic inter-simple
sequence repeats (ISSR) markers. Significant variation was observed among accessions particularly for seeds per capitulum,
seed yield per plant, harvest index and capitula per plant. Cluster analysis based on agro-morphological traits classified
the wild accessions in two groups according to their geographical regions, and separated them from the cultivated genotypes.
ISSR marker also revealed a high genetic variation among the accessions, and cluster analysis based on this marker divided
genotypes into four groups, with cultivated ones in a separate clade. Genetic variation observed among the wild safflower
germplasm at the DNA level was higher than the agro-morphological traits, indicating that ISSR is an effective marker system
for detecting diversity among safflower genotypes and their genetic relationships. Accessions of C. oxyacanthus with high genetic relationship to cultivated species could be used for interspecific hybridization in breeding programs of
safflower. 相似文献

Wild melon diversity in India (Punjab State) 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Anamika Roy S. S. Bal M. Fergany Sukhjeet Kaur Hira Singh Ajaz A. Malik Jugpreet Singh A. J. Monforte N. P. S. Dhillon 《Genetic Resources and Crop Evolution》2012,59(5):755-767
We present here the first comprehensive genetic characterization of wild melon accessions from northern India. The genetic diversity among 43 wild melon accessions collected from the six agro-ecological regions of the Punjab State of India was assessed by measuring variation at 16 Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) loci, morphological traits of plant habit and fruit morphological traits, two yield-associated traits, root nematode resistance and biochemical composition (ascorbic acid, carotenoids, titrable acidity). Variation among accessions was observed in plant habit and fruit traits and wild melon germplasm with high acidity and elevated carotenoid content and possessing resistance to Meloidogyne incognita was identified in the collection. A high level of genetic variability in wild melon germplasm was suggested by SSR analysis. Comparative analysis using SSRs of the genetic variability between wild melons from the north and other melons from the south and east regions of India and also reference accessions of cultivated melon from Spain, Japan, Korea, Maldives, Iraq and Israel, showed regional differentiation among Indian melon accessions and that Indian germplasm was not closely related to melon accessions from other parts of the world. A highly drought tolerant accession belonging to var. agrestis Naud. was also identified. 相似文献

We present here the first comprehensive genetic characterization of melon landraces from the humid tropics of southern India.
The genetic diversity among 50 melon landraces collected from 3 agro-ecological regions of southern India (6 agro-ecological
sub-regions) was assessed by variation at 17 SSR loci, morphological traits of plant habit and fruit, 2 yield-associated traits,
pest and disease resistance, biochemical composition (ascorbic acid, carotenoids, titrable acidity) and mineral content (P,
K, Fe, Zn). Differences among accessions were observed in plant and fruit traits. Melon germplasm with high titrable acidity,
higher than average amounts of mineral content and resistance to Cucumber mosaic virus, Zucchini yellow mosaic virus, powdery
mildew (races 1, 2, 3, 5), Fusarium wilt (races 1, 2), Aphis gossypii and leafminer was recorded in the collection. A high level of genetic variability in melon germplasm was suggested by the
SSR analysis. Comparative analysis using SSRs of the genetic variability between Indian melons from north, south, and east
regions and reference accessions of melon from Spain, France, Japan, Korea, Iraq, Zambia showed regional differentiation between
Indian melon accessions and that Indian germplasm was weakly related to the melon accessions from other parts of the world,
suggesting that an important portion of the genetic variability found within this melon collection has not been used yet for
the development of new cultivars. Additional collections of acidulus melon germplasm should be made in southern India and adequate management of this important genetic resource is clearly a
necessity. 相似文献

Guar, Cyamopsis tetragonoloba is used worldwide for food stabilization, fiber source, food, and industry. The United States Department of Agriculture,
Agricultural Research Service, Plant Genetic Resources Conservation Unit (USDA, ARS, PGRCU) conserves 1,298 accessions originating
from India, Pakistan, and breeding lines from the USA. My objectives were to determine: (1) if these guar accessions can successfully
be regenerated in Georgia, USA, (2) which traits contribute the most variation, and (3) to provide estimates for genetic relatedness
among these accessions. Guar accessions were directly seeded to the field in Griffin, GA between early May and mid June 2006–2008.
At 50% maturity, 73 accessions were characterized for morphological, phenological, and reproductive traits during the regeneration
cycles. High quality plants regenerated from most of the accessions and produced 80 to more than 9,300 seeds per accession.
Guar can be successfully grown and regenerated in Griffin, GA. Coefficients of variation and principal component analysis
revealed variability among accessions for these traits evaluated. Cluster analysis separated guar accessions into three groups
(clusters) based on low, intermediate or high seed numbers. Guar accessions clustered in groups 2 and 3 appear to be more
genetically related than those in group 1. 相似文献

An experiment was conducted in 2001 at Holetta and Kulumsa, Ethiopia, to study the extent and pattern of genetic diversity
in Ethiopian field pea (Pisum sativum L.) landraces. One hundred forty-eight germplasm accessions were grown in an alpha lattice design with 2 replications. Data
on 12 traits were collected and analyzed. Differences among the accessions were significant for most of the traits (except
number of seeds/ pod) at each location even though differences pooled over location were mostly non-significant. The accessions
were grouped into five clusters of different sizes. Accessions from the southern part of the country (Arsi) distributed overall
clusters while those from the northern half (North and South Wello, North Gonder and North Shewa) fell into clusters C1 to C3. Cumulative effects of a number of characters dictated differentiation of the accessions into clusters. There was no definite
relationship between geographic diversity and genetic diversity as overlapping was encountered in clustering pattern among
accessions from different parts of the country. Accessions from different regions might have similar genetic background and
those from the same origin might also have different genetic background. Therefore, geographic diversity should not necessarily
be used as an index of genetic diversity and parental selection should be based on a systematic study of genetic diversity
in a specific population. Genetic distances among most of the clusters were significant that crosses between parents selected
out of them are expected to generate desirable genetic recombination. Selection should also consider the special advantages
of each cluster and each accession within a cluster. Future germplasm collection, conservation and breeding efforts should
focus not only on inter-regional diversity but also on intra-regional diversity. 相似文献

Sixteen germplasm accessions of Prosopis cineraria with suitable horticultural traits were identified from north-western Rajasthan, India, propagated clonally by budding on
seedling rootstock and maintained in the field gene bank. Morphological characterization of seven-year-old trees of these
accessions by 21 traits indicated a lot of variation among the accessions tested. Higher number of flowers per raceme was
found in accession CIAH/K2, higher width of ripened pod in CIAH/K5, higher number of seeds per pod in CIAH/K12 and a higher
weight of seed per pod in CIAH/K6. Overall, CIAH/K16 was found to be a superior genotype for most of the useful traits. High
significant positive correlation was obtained with traits useful for horticultural values. Out of 62 random decamer primers
for random amplification (RAPD) reaction, and four minisatellite core sequence for direct amplification of minisatellite DNA
(DAMD) screened with these accessions, 12 RAPD and 2 DAMD primers were found polymorphic. Average polymorphism resolved by
these markers among the accessions was 93.2%. Genetic diversity revealed by Jaccard’s co-efficient was between 0.11 and 0.77,
and four major clusters were identified among these accessions by phylogenetic analysis using NTSYSpc-2.02e software. This
study shows the existence of high genetic diversity within these accessions. 相似文献
