Genetic Diversity Analysis of Landraces and Improved Varieties of Mung Bean by EST-SSR Markers
We used 16 EST-SSR markers covering 11 chromosomes of mung bean genome to analyze the genetic diversity of 156 mung bean landraces and 53 improved mung bean varieties from 15 different provinces in China.The results showed that 16 EST-SSR markers detected a total of 57 alleles,with an average of 3.56 alleles per marker,and the average effective alleles number(Ne)was 1.89,the Shannon's information index(PIC)was 0.70.Compared with the improved mung bean varieties,the observed allele number,Ne,the expected heterozygosity and PIC of the landraces were higher,indicating that the genetic diversity of landraces was higher than that of the improved mung bean varieties.The Structure analysis divided all resources into three distinct groups.The resources in the group tend to gather according to geographical origin,and the average genetic distance between germplasms in the three groups had little difference.Using UPGMA method for cluster analysis,all the mung bean resources could be divided into group A,B and C.Group A concentrated most improved mung bean varieties,while group B and C were mainly landraces.The genetic consistency of 12 populations from different geographical sources ranged from 0.4706 to 0.9627.
