The results showed that the anthocyanin and melanin were the most important pigments in testa and their content were responsible for the variation in seed color ranging from orange to black yellow, 14 yellow-seeded lines could be classified into 3 groups: high anthocyanin content group with anthocyanin content over 2. 54 mg g-1 DW, the seed color was light yellow or orange; low pigments content group with low content of anthocyanin and melanin, the testa was transparent and the seed color was light yellow, greenish yellow or twany; high melanin content group with melanin content over 178. 4U(A290nm) , the testa was black, the seed color was black yellow. Oil content changed from 36.2% to 45. 5%, protein content from 21.1% to 27.7% , and the correlation analysis revealed that the oil content is highly significantly negatively correlated with the protein content. The cluster analysis showed that the extensive genetic variation existed among 14 yellow-seeded lines by using unweighted paired group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA) based on RAPD markers which were amplified with decamer primers, the genetic similarity among them ranged from 0. 25 to 0.909, and 14 yellow-seeded lines could put into 2 clusters corresponding to genome difference.展开更多
