Assessment of Genetic Diversity in Indian Mustard[Brassica juncea(l.) Czern & Coss.] for High Temperature Tolerance using SSR Markers

Genetic Diversity Analysis for Salinity Tolerance in Indian Mustard [Brassica juncea (L.)] Using SSR Markers

“…In our study, the average PIC values were found to be higher than that of reported by Turi et al, (2012) in B. juncea (0.46). Gupta et al, (2014) reported low PIC value 0.281; Sudan et al, (2016) PIC values ranged from 0.12-0.61 with an average to 0.314 but lower than that, observed by Nanjundan et al, (2015). ) observed by Avtar et al, (2016) were found to be higher than that of our study.…”

Genetic diversity in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) genotypes for Sclerotinia stem rot (Seclerotinia sclerotiorum) using SSR markers

“…Culture preparation and disease assessment: Sclerotinia sclerotiorum inoculums preparation, artificial stem SSR polymorphism: Forty eight polymorphic primers amplified overall 114 alleles, in which 85 alleles were polymorphic displaying clear bands size difference. The polymorphic alleles in present study is considerably higher than 54 alleles detected by Sudan et al (2016), 52 alleles reported by Nanjundan et al (2015) and 47 alleles reported by Avtar et al (2016). This difference may be attributed to different sampling size, different genotypes and SSR primers in previous studies.…”

“…Twenty-one SSR markers in our study have PIC values of more than 0.50 suggesting their effectiveness in distinguishing genotypes. The overall polymorphic percentage (78.51%) revealed the considerable polymorphism in the studied molecular markers though it was slightly lesser than previous study of Nanjundan et al (2015). The gene diversity (H e ) provides an estimate of genetic distance among genotypes in germplasm set.…”
