Abstract:With a view to explore genetic diversity in crop wild relatives of AA-genome species of rice (Oryza sativa L.) in India, we analyzed 96 accessions of 10 Oryza species for 17 quantitative traits with 45 microsatellite markers. The morpho-quantitative traits revealed high extent of phenotypic variation within and between species. Shannon-Weiner's diversity index (H′) also con rmed the presence of high level of genetic variation for both within species, in O. nivara (H′=1.09) and O. ru pogon (H′=1.12), and betwee… Show more
