Genetic diversity among watermelon (Citrullus lanatus and Citrullus colocynthis) accessions
2001-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity was estimated among 42 U.S. Plant Introduction (PI) accessions of the genus Citrullus (of these, 34 PIs are reported to have disease resistance), and 5 watermelon cultivars, using 30 RAPD primers. These primers produced 662 RAPD markers that could be rated with high confidence. Based on these markers, genetic similarity coefficients were calculated and a dendrogram was constructed using the unwei...
