Microsatellite DNA Marker Aided Diversity Analysis in Confectionery Sunflower (Helianthus Annuus L.)

Abstract

Genetic diversity among 48 genotypes of confectionery sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) collected from USDA, USA and India were evaluated by using microsatellite SSR markers. Twenty five sunflower specific SSR primers were used. Of the 25 SSR primers used, 10 primer pairs ( ORS331, ORS694, ORS728, ORS785, ORS807, ORS878, ORS 378, ORS1265,ORS1265,ORS1242) showed polymorphism. The high level of polymorphism (66.66%) was reported in this finding and the number of alleles in SSR loci ranged from 2 to 4 with an average of 2.5. The present study identifies the promising lines EC 734807, EC 734808,EC 734810,EC734860 and EC 734817 for protein and yield, these can be used as potential donors in future hybridization programme.
