Determination of Genetic Diversity Among Some Turkish Spring Bread Wheat Varieties Using SSR Markers

Abstract

Wheat in grain, is a food source with high strategic importance and it was cultured since ancient times. Since the increase of population in the world, it was necessary in order to increase the yield per unit area. Increasing yield per unit area of wheat, can be achievable by various breeding methods. Knowing the genetic similarities - differences of plant genetic resources are very important for breeding. In recent years, molecular marker methods are often preferred in wheats. This study was aimed to molecular characterization of 23 bread wheat varieties which collected from different regions of Turkey using capillary electrophoretic method for 32 SSR primers. As a result of molecular marker analysis the genetic similarities and differences between the varieties are revealed at the molecular level. In addition, this study emphasizes once again the importance and necessity of using molecular markers for breeding studies.
