Abstract: | RAPD analysis of 112 accessions of Aegilops tauschii Coss. (genome DD), Ae. cylindrica Host (CCDD), Ae. crassa Boiss. (DDMM), Ae. biuncialis Vis. (UUMM) and Ae. triuncialis L. (UUCC) collected in the Central Asia and north Caucasia was conducted. Aegilops accessions were divided into two major groups, corresponding to the D genome species and the U genome species. These groups were also separated into sub-groups according to species, except for the Ae. tauschii-cylindrica complex of accessions from Central Asia. Aegilops tauschii from north Caucasia was divided into two varietal groups, tauschii and meyeri. The Central Asian accessions of Aegilops species were more diverse than the accessions from north Caucasia. Aegilops tauschii and Ae. cylindrica accessions from north Caucasia were genetically uniform. Associations between altitudal variation of Aegilops species and variability of RAPD markers were not found. |
