Abstract

Analysis of genetic diversity is an important and effective strategy in crop development. In this research 12 polymorph microsatellite markers used to study of genetic diversity structure of 25 accession of diploid einkorn wheats in two species (Titicum boeoticum and T.urartu) collected from west and Northwestern Regions of Iran. Totally 87 alleles amplified by 12 pairs of SSR primers used in this study. Allele number of different loci was varied from 2 to 14 alleles and 7.2 alleles per locus in average. Calculated polymorphism information content for SSR loci was in the range of 0.37 to 0.92. Similarity coefficients calculated by Dice and Jacard functions used for cluster analysis of accessions with UMGMA algorithm. Results showed further genetic distance in genotypes originated from western provinces than others. The most genetic diversity observed in Lorestan and Kermanshah for boeoticum and urartu populations respectively, probably the center of origin of these einkorn wheats in Near-East.
