“…According to several reports, morphological variations on the leaf color, shape, surface and margin were existed under this species (Vasava et al 2018). Several variants of A. marmelos in India have light to dark green leaves, lanceolate to ovate leaf shape, smooth to rough leaf surface and crenulate to crenate leaf margin (Singh et al 2024). Genus Melicope has lanceolate leaf shape with long, medium to wide angle banches from the main trunk as the common features within group (Appelhans et al 2018).…”

Morphological and molecular assessments were carried out to confirm the genetic variability and relationship among wild Rutaceae species. Thirteen stem and leaves morphological characters and 12 ISSR primers were used to evaluate 17 Rutaceae accessions. The results shows that morphological and molecular assessments confirmed different accessions grouping. Biplot analysis based on morphological characters revealed 3 groups based on the character similarity and 1 distinct group consisting Lunasia sp., M. latifolia, L. amara, E. suaveolens, Clausena sp., and M. minutum with a weak relationship of the observed characters. While the ISSR study divided the accessions into 3 clusters, which include L. acidissima in a distinct cluster. The second cluster composed of Clausena sp, Melicope sp. and Fragara sp. The third cluster was divided into two sub-clusters. The first sub-cluster included M. trichopetala, M. minutum, M. latifolia, L. amara, A. marmelos, Z. ovalifolium, G. pentaphyla, Lunasia sp, Z. rhetsa and M. exotica. While, F. lucida, P. littorale and E. suaveolens are the member of the second sub-cluster. The study has demonstrated the effectiveness of ISSR primers in differentiating species up to the subfamily level and it is crucial to prioritize further research to enhance the specificity of morphological characters.

Bael is a fruit crop that is extensively distributed throughout South-East Asia and is underutilized in medicine. The potential applications of bael's therapeutic and nutritional qualities in diverse ethnic communities are enormous. This study focuses on evaluating the morpho-pomological and molecular characteristics, utilizing SSR markers, of 80 wild bael genotypes alongside the NB-5 and NB-9 cultivars, derived from the North Western plains of India. Based on the evaluated morpho-pomological features, substantial variations were found between all genotypes. The fruit's inner diameter and pulp weight varied from 4.41 to 11.54 cm and 34.63 to 786.41 g, respectively. Numerous variations in the genotypes were observed in the shell weight/fruit, fruit skull thickness and fruit yield/plant. The bael fruit mucilage's total soluble solids (TSS) and total sugar content varied from 40.10 to 49.60 o brix and 8.11 to 21.17%, respectively. Using ward cluster analysis, the genotypes were divided into two primary clusters. Among the bael genotypes, the population structure analysis identified three subpopulations. SSR markers are used to measure genetic variety; of the 27 polymorphic markers, 17 show allelic diversity between genotypes. Molecular genetic diversity analysis, on the other hand, highlighted the genotypes genetic distinctiveness by classifying them into three major clusters. These findings offer valuable insights into the rich diversity and intricate interactions among the bael genotypes under investigation, paving the way for more strategic future breeding and selection efforts to elevate the quality of this remarkable fruit.
