Investigation of intraspecific diversity in Capsicum chinense using morphological and molecular markers
Main Article Content
Abstract
Sixty accessions of Capsicum chinense were investigated to reveal the genetic diversity based on morphological traits along with ISSR based molecular markers. Genetic distances for morphological traits and ISSR markers respectively ranged from 1.41 to 8.60 and 0.05 to 0.49. Fourteen ISSR markers showed mean of 53.84% polymorphism. The Mantel test revealed low correlation (r=0.34) between the genetic distances based on morphological and molecular markers. All the accessions ofCapsicum chinense found genetically diverse which can be used for future crop improvement programme.
