Molecular characterization of Anthurium genotypes by using DNA fingerprinting and SPAR markers

J. D. Souza Neto, Soares, T. C. B., Motta, L. B., Cabral, P. D. S., and Silva, J. A., Molecular characterization of Anthurium genotypes by using DNA fingerprinting and SPAR markers, vol. 13, pp. 4766-4775, 2014.

We characterized single primer amplification reaction (SPAR) molecular markers from 20 genotypes of Anthurium andraeanum Lind., including 3 from commercial varieties and 17 from 2 communities in the State of Espírito Santo, Brazil. Twenty-four SPAR, consisting of 7 random amplified polymorphic DNA and 17 inter-simple sequence repeat markers were used to estimate the genetic diversity of 20 Anthurium accessions. The set of SPAR markers generated 288 bands and showed an average polymorphism percentage of 93.39%, ranging from 71.43 to 100%.
