Abstract:Morocco has a long history of domesticating cannabis and refuges a local
Beldia population, which lacks detailed information on genetic
diversity. In this study, the genetic diversity of cannabis grown in
four Moroccan regions was assessed with six genomic SSR markers
involving two cannabis populations: the local Beldia and the introduced
Critical variety. A total of 111 alleles were detected, with an average
of 18.5 alleles /locus. Several genetic diversity indices were measured
for both populations and showe… Show more
