Comparison of similarity coefficients used for cluster analysis based on RAPD markers in wild olives

M. Sesli and Yegenoglu, E. D., Comparison of similarity coefficients used for cluster analysis based on RAPD markers in wild olives, vol. 9, pp. 2248-2253, 2010.

Five different similarity coefficients (Jaccard, Sorensen-Dice, simple matching, Rogers and Tanimoto, and Russel and Rao) were evaluated and 10 wild olives analyzed with RAPD markers. The influence of the similarity coefficients on wild olives clustering was investigated. Forty-five primers were used on samples from 10 wild olives (Wild 1 and 2 obtained from Mugla province; Wild 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 from Manisa province and Wild 9 and 10 from Izmir province of Turkey). The similarity matrices obtained from RAPD markers were compared by the Mantel test.
