Association of Morphological, Ecological, and Genetic Diversity of Aerva javanica Populations Growing in the Eastern Desert of Egypt

Abstract: Aerva javanica is one of Egypt’s most important traditional medicinal plants used as antidiarrheal and anthelmintic medicine and recently as an anticancer agent. In this study, variations among ten populations of Aerva javanica in different sites in the Eastern Desert of Egypt were analyzed based on morphological and ecological attributes and molecular variation expressed by Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) markers. Morphological diversity was higher for populations in the Wadi El-Markh and Bir Abbady regio… Show more

“…This leads to high repeatability and good stability and does not require prediction of genomic DNA sequence, polymorphism, and rich information (Zietkiewicz et al 1994). ISSRs have been widely used in the study of genetic diversity of crop germplasm resources (El-tayeh et al 2020;Zafar-Pashanezhad et al 2019;Zhang et al 2020).…”

“…A diversity analysis of Jasminum was also performed on the collected variants using ISSR markers, which showed the intraspecific and interspecific variations and the relationship among the sections. Many studies have validated the use of ISSR markers for genomic characterization in the Oleaceae family [ 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ] and many other plants, such as Batrachium [ 27 ], Pistacia [ 28 ], and Aerva [ 29 ].…”

“…Molecular markers have been widely used to characterize and assess the genetic diversity of medicinal plant species [20]. Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) molecular markers have several advantages in genetic diversity study due to their abundance, reproducibility, produce high polymorphism level, not being affected by environmental factors, information, effectiveness, and efficiency [21]. Genetic markers can be used to assess the number of distinct genotypes and the extent of clonality, and the total genetic diversity of a population [22].…”
