It is important to identify the genetic diversity of peanut genetic resources for cultivar development and evaluation of peanut accessions. Thirty-four SSR markers were used to assess the genetic variation of four sets of twenty-four accessions each from the four botanical varieties of the cultivated peanut. Among the tested accessions, ten to sixteen pairs of SSR primers showed polymorphisms. The maximum differentiation index, which was defined as the degree of genetic differentiation, was as high as 0.992 in the tested accessions. Each accession could be discriminated by a specific set of polymorphic SSR primers, and the intra-variety genetic distance was determined among accessions, with an average of 0.59 in var. fastigiata, 0.46 in var. hypogaea, 0.38 in var. vulgaris, and 0.17 in var. hirsuta. Dendrogrames based on genetic distances were constructed for the four botanical varieties, which revealed the existence of different clusters. It was concluded that there was abundant intra-variety SSR polymorphism, and with more and more SSR markers being developed, the intrinsic genetic diversity would be detected and the development of genetic map and marker-assisted selection for cultivated peanut would be feasible.展开更多

Although several BW-resistant peanut germplasm accessions have been identified, the genetic diversity among these has not been properly investigated, which has impeded efficient utilization. In this study, the genetic relationships of 31 peanut genotypes with various levels of resistance to BW were assessed based on SSR and AFLP analyses. Twenty-nine of 78 SSR primers and 32 of 126 AFLP primer combinations employed in this study were polymorphic amongst the peanut genotypes tested. The SSR primers amplified 91 polymorphic loci in total with an average of 3.14 alleles per primer, and the AFLP primers amplified 72 polymorphic loci in total with an average of 2.25 alleles per primer. Four SSR primers （14H06, 7G02, 3A8, 16C6） and one AFLP primer （P1M62） were found to be most efficient in detecting diversity. The genetic distance between pairs of genotypes ranged from 0.12 to 0.94 with an average of 0.53 in the SSR data and from 0.06 to 0.57 with an average of 0.25 in the AFLP data. The SSR-based estimates of the genetic distance were generally larger than that based on the AFLP data. The genotypes belonging to subsp, fastigiata possessed wider diversity than that of subsp, hypogaea. The clustering of genotypes based on the SSR and AFLP data were similar but the SSR clustering was more consistent with morphological classification ofA. hypogaea. Optimum diverse genotypes of both subsp, hypogaea and subsp.fastigiata can be recommended based on this analysis for developing mapping populations and breeding for high yielding and resistant cultivars.展开更多
