| Abstract: | BackgroundAvailability of related rice species is critical for rice breeding and improvement. Two distinct species of domesticated rice exist in the genus Oryza: Oryza sativa (Asian rice) and Oryza glaberrima (African rice). New rice for Africa (NERICA) is derived from interspecific crosses between these two species. Molecular profiling of these germplasms is important for both genetics and breeding studies. We used 30 polymorphic SSR markers to assess the genetic diversity and molecular fingerprints of 53 rice genotypes of O. sativa, O. glaberrima, and NERICA.ResultsIn total, 180 alleles were detected. Average polymorphism information content and Shannon's information index were 0.638 and 1.390, respectively. Population structure and neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree revealed that 53 genotypes grouped into three distinct subpopulations conforming to the original three groups, except three varieties (IR66417, WAB450-4, MZCD74), and that NERICA showed a smaller genetic distance from O. sativa genotypes (0.774) than from O. glaberrima genotypes (0.889). A molecular fingerprint map of the 53 accessions was constructed with a novel encoding method based on the SSR polymorphic alleles. Ten specific SSR markers displayed different allelic profiles between the O. glaberrima and O. sativa genotypes.ConclusionsGenetic diversity studies revealed that 50 rice types were clustered into different subpopulations whereas three genotypes were admixtures. Molecular fingerprinting and 10 specific markers were obtained to identify the 53 rice genotypes. These results can facilitate the potential utilization of sibling species in rice breeding and molecular classification of O. sativa and O. glaberrima germplasms. |
