Abstract EN
Iran is one of the chief origins of subgenus Cerasus germplasm.
In this study, the genetic variation of new Iranian sour cherries (which had such superior growth characteristics and fruit quality as to be considered for the introduction of new cultivars) was investigated and identified using 23 intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers.
Results indicated a high level of polymorphism of the genotypes based on these markers.
According to these results, primers tested in this study specially ISSR-4, ISSR-6, ISSR-13, ISSR-14, ISSR-16, and ISSR-19 produced good and various levels of amplifications which can be effectively used in genetic studies of the sour cherry.
The genetic similarity among genotypes showed a high diversity among the genotypes.
Cluster analysis separated improved cultivars from promising Iranian genotypes, and the PCoA supported the cluster analysis results.
Since the Iranian genotypes were superior to the improved cultivars and were separated from them in most groups, these genotypes can be considered as distinct genotypes for further evaluations in the framework of breeding programs and new cultivar identification in cherries.
Results also confirmed that ISSR is a reliable DNA marker that can be used for exact genetic studies and in sour cherry breeding programs.
