RAPD fingerprint construction and genetic similarity of Mesona chinensis (Lamiaceae) in China

G. F. Zhang, Guan, J. M., Lai, X. P., Lin, J., Liu, J. M., and Xu, H. H., RAPD fingerprint construction and genetic similarity of Mesona chinensis (Lamiaceae) in China, vol. 11, pp. 3649-3657, 2012.

Mesona chinensis is an economically important agricultural crop, primarily cultivated for making grass jelly. It was originally discovered in South China. We examined 18 cultivars, including cultivars from Guangdong, Fujian, and Guangxi, China, Taiwan, and Indonesia, and a hybrid (a cross between cultivars from Indonesia and Guangdong), based on RAPD markers. The genetic similarity coefficient was calculated by NTSYS 2.10 and the clustering analysis was made by UPGMA. PCR amplification with 10 primers produced 163 bands; 94% of the amplified loci were polymorphic.
