The length of amplified DNA fragments ranged from 200 to, 2,800 bp. Two hundred and eight scorable polymorphic makers and three scorable monomorphic makers were found from the PCR reactions with 15 random oligo primers, and those were analyzed by Nei's genetic distance coefficient. Based on the UPGMA phenogram from RAPD analyses, two major groups (9 populations from Korea; 3 populations from foreign countries) were recognized. And it showed distinct genetic differences from related taxa. The RAPD results was very useful to define the samples by geographical distribution and to discuss the relationships among the populations and their related taxa of the Pueraria lobata.Read More
