POLIMORFISME PENANDA RAPD UNTUK ANALISIS KERAGAMAN GENETIK KEMIRI (Aleurites mollucana) DI KABUPATEN MAROS

Abstract

The genetic diversity of candlenut (Aleurites mollucana) need to be analysed using molecular study for plant breeding purpose. Primer selection are basic steps for molecular study especially in analysis of genetic diversity. The aim of this research was to obtain RAPD primers  were able to amplify candlenut DNA, produce bright and clear polymorphic bands. The result showed that seven of 20 RAPD primers were able to produce polymorphic band. These seven polymorphic primers can be recommended to use for genetic diversity of candlenut analyses.
