Genetic diversity of wild soybean populations in Dongying, China, by simple sequence repeat analysis

Y. H. Wang, Zhang, X. J., and Fan, S. J., Genetic diversity of wild soybean populations in Dongying, China, by simple sequence repeat analysis, vol. 14, pp. 11613-11623, 2015.

Annual wild soybean (Glycine soja Sieb. et Zucc.), the ancestor of cultivated soybean (G. max), is believed to be a potential gene source for further improvement of soybean to cope with environmental stress. In this study, 10 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to evaluate the genetic diversity and population genetic structure in five wild soybean populations using 195 accessions collected from Dongying, China. Ten SSR markers yielded 90 bands, with an average of nine bands per marker.
