Abstract

The genetic diversities of 83 early-maturing litchi(variety) plants were examined by using ISSR markers in this study. Ten primers gave reproducible,polymorphic DNA amplification patterns with a total of 128 amplified bands. The percentage of polymorphic band was 83.59%,which showed that the early-maturing seedling litchi resources in southwest Guangxi had abundant genetic diversity. The genetic similarity ranged from 0.64 to 0.95 based on DICE. A dendrogram was constructed by UPGMA method,and the early-maturing litchi(variety)plants were distinguished from cultivar litchi at a similarity coefficient criterion of 0.75. No significant correlation between the dendrogram and geographical distance was revealed among the resources.
