摘要
RAPD （randomly amplified polymorphic DNA） markers were employed to characterize polymorphisms among 5 provenances of Acacia leucophloea and to detect genetic relatedness of the species with 6 other acacias （A. holosericea, A. auriculiformis, A. mangium, A. dealbata, A. ferruginea, and A. nilotica） widely grown in India. Of 194 markers scored for the provenances, 29.38% exhibited polymorphism. Also, 326 markers were generated among 7 species of Acacia, accounting for 55.82% of the polymorphisms. The fifteen 10-mer primers employed were capable of producing 1-8 polymorphic bands for the provenances, and 6-17 for all seven species of Acacia. The genetic similarity coefficient based on Jaccard＇ s coefficient revealed that provenances Thirumangalam and Dharmapuri were closely related. The dendrogram based on a sequential agglomerative hierarchical non-overlapping （SAHN） clustering analysis grouped 4 provenances of A. leucophloea （Dharapuram, Thirumangalam, Pudukottai and Dharmapuri） into one cluster and the other provenance, Sendurai, into a separate cluster. The genetic similarity matrix for 7 Acacia species showed that A. nilotica and A. dealbata were distantly related, while A. holosericea and A. ferruginea were very closely related. Cluster analysis grouped the species of Acacias into 3 major groups of which A. dealbata alone formed a separate group. The RAPD markers generated 36 provenance-specific markers and 162 species-specific markers that could have strong applications for species identification and tree breeding programs for A. leucophloea and for other Acacia species included in this study.
