Genetic uniformity study of parent and progeny relationship of the Papaya Merah Delima using RAPD markers
Abstract
The research was conducted in Molecular Laboratory of Indonesian Tropical Fruits Research Institute Sumani Experimental Field, on September-November 2017. The objective of the research was to determine the genetic uniformity of parents-progenies relationship of the Merah Delima papaya seedling using 5 Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA markers. Based on the analysis on 3 parents and 5 progenies of Papaya Merah Delima, it was showed 0.63-1.00 genetic similarity coefficient among parents and progenies. It was indicated that papaya Merah Delima progenies could have a 100% genetic similarity compared to parents. Thus, RAPD primers could be used to determine the efficiency as well as variety identification in papaya breeding.The research was conducted in Molecular Laboratory of Indonesian Tropical Fruits Research Institute Sumani Experimental Field, on September-November 2017.
