“…It includes both annual and perennial herbaceous plants. Some of the species are economically important as a source of food, beverage, fiber, medicines and other species as ornamentals (Wilson and Menzel, 1964;Mohamad et al, 2005;Bolade et al, 2009).…”

The PCR based RAPD analysis was used to study genetic relationship among roselle and kenaf accessions. Extraction of genomic DNA samples of nine roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) and seven kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) accessions were successfully performed by Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB) method. RAPD analysis using two chloroplast primers and one mitochondrial primer produced about 62 bands of different sizes. Most of the fragments were polymorphic where 2-3 fragments were monomorphic in each primer. Sixteen accessions were classified into two main groups A and B through dendogram generated using RAPD polymorphism. Five kenaf accessions were included in group A, whereas nine roselle accessions and two kenaf accessions were included in group B. A group was formed with a range of similarity coefficients of 0.5333 to 0.8780 having all roselle accessions. Bengkalis was different from Hibiscus sp but it was close to roselle accessions. Noonsoon was very close to roselle accessions having a range of jaccard similarity coefficients of 0.5000 to 0.6326. It was evident from jaccad similarity coefficient of 0.8780 that the roselle varieties UKMR 1 and UKMR 2 were genetically closer to each other. On the other hand, V36 and Thainung showed the highest similarity coefficient (0.7878) among kenaf accessions in group A. This study has successfully differentiated between two species by using chloroplast and mitochondrial markers which was due to high level of polymorphism. However, the chloroplast primers were more effective than M13 to study the genetic variation between roselle and kenaf.

“…Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.), an annual or biennial plant belonging to the family Malvaceae, is cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions for stem fibers, paper pulp or edible calyces, leaves and seeds (Wilson and Menzel, 1964;Adamson and O'Bryan, 1981). This species was probably brought to the western hemisphere by slaves from Africa and its use in Jamaica was noted as early as 1707 (Crane, 1949).…”

Two local varieties of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.), Jamaican Green and Jamaican Red, were grown to determine the amount of natural cross-pollination. Two planting arrangements (alternating rows; alternating individuals in a row) and two planting dates, a month apart, were used for the outcrossing experiments. Stem pigmentation, red (R-) vs. green (rr), was used as a genetic marker in the estimation of outcrossing. Homozygous dominant and recessive genotypes of Jamaican Red and Jamaican Green, respectively, were grown in both of the planting arrangements and dates. Seeds from open-pollinated capsules of randomly selected Jamaican Green plants were planted to score the frequency of cross-pollination. Estimates of natural cross-pollination ranged from 0.20 ± 0.09% to 0.68 ± 0.34%. Roselle outcrosses at a low rate in Jamaica.

“…A model for such a case exists in Lycopersicon esculentumn, Solanum lycopersicoides, and their diploid and allotetraploid F1 hybrids (Menzel 1962(Menzel , 1964. The pachytene chromosomes of L. esculentum are about half as long as those of S. lycoper sicoides; arm length ratios of 8 of the 12 chromosomes correspond in the two species but those of the other 4 do not.…”
