10.5937/ratpov50-4344 = Molecular evaluation of genetic variability in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum mill.) genotypes by microsatellite markers

Abstract

Summary:The objective of this research was to assess genetic diversity using eight microsatellite markers in 30 tomato genotypes from the collection of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops in Novi Sad. The SSR markers were selected from publicly available data and Solanaceae Genome Network database. Genotypes were grouped into three clusters, using Ward`s hierarchical clustering method and Euclidean distance measure. Markers SSR248, TMS9, TMS42 and SSR111 had very high PIC (Polymorphism information content) values and can be recommended for the future studies.
