Eight sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genotypes were evaluated using a randomized complete block design in field experiment with three replications for their diversity in seven agronomic and morphological traits at Ismailia Agricultural Research Station, ARC, Ismailia Governorate, Egypt during the two successive seasons 2016 and 2017. Results showed that the most promising genotypes for seed yield and its attributes were Zahar 14 , Shandwell 3 , H 88 A 2, Zahar 18, B 4-2, and Zahar 18 For all traits, estimates of phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) were slightly higher than those of genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV). High heritability coupled with high genetic advance (as % of the mean) was recorded for all studied traits. Five ISSR primers were used for fingerprinting of the eight sesame genotypes produced 29 bands, 23 of them were polymorphic with 79% polymorphism, while primer ISSR 1 produced two positive markers in shandweell 3 and line M 4-55. Primer ISSR 6 and ISSR 8 produced one band positive marker in the same line M 4-55 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
