Results of analysis with 16 SSR markers showed aromatic and non-aromatic varieties were basically clustered into two groups.Among the 78 aromatic varieties derived from abroad,73.1% were clustered into group,23.1% clustered together with 14 Guangxi aromatic varieties,whereas only 3.8% clustered together with 24 Guangxi native non-aromatic varieties at a genetic distance 0.56.Analysis of Nei's genetic distance showed that genetic diversity in South Asia aromatic landrace was significantly larger than that in South Asia improved varieties,while that in those improved South Asia aromatic varieties was significant larger than that in the aromatic varieties being planted in Guangxi and non-aromatic Guangxi native germplasm.Read More
