J. Jiang, Yang, B. L., Xia, T., Yu, S. M., Wu, Y. N., Jin, H., and Li, J. R., “Analysis of genetic diversity of salt-tolerant alfalfa germplasms”, vol. 14, pp. 4438-4447, 2015.

Random amplified polymorphic DNA technology was used to analyze the genetic diversity of 25 salt-tolerant alfalfa varieties using 30 different primers. Results showed that the percentage of polymorphic loci between single-plant DNA was 81.52%, and that between mixed DNA of various varieties was 61.65%. Compared to the mixed DNA samples, single-plant DNA samples can better reveal the level of genetic variation among and between alfalfa varieties.
