“…The genetic diversity in Passiflora has been studied with different molecular techniques, such as random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) (Oluoch et al, 2018;Vieira et al, 2019); however, simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers are the most used techniques for the characterization of germplasm in different crops since they are highly polymorphic, reproducible and co-dominant, with wide genome coverage (Gramazio et al, 2018). Among the microsatellite markers, inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR), which combines characteristics of the RAPD and microsatellites techniques, facilitates multilocus genomic analysis with a single primer based on regions of SSR, presents good reproducibility, has a low cost, is simple, does not need previous genome information (Morillo et al, 2018), and has proven to be polymorphic and informative in studies on genetic diversity in Passiflora (Santos et al, 2011;Sousa et al, 2015;Batista et al, 2017;Oliveira et al, 2019;Vianna et al, 2019).…”
