Preliminary DNA fingerprinting of the turf grass <i>Cynodon dactylon</i> (Poaceae: Chloridoideae)

Abstract: Identification of different cultivars of turf grasses is often very difficult. In a preliminary attempt to identify different cultivars o f Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.. random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analyses of some well-known cultivars used in South Africa, i.e. Bayview. Cape Royal, Florida. Hamsmith. Silverton Blue. Skaapplaas and Titdwart. as well as 10 potential new cultivars, were done. These results were used to determine the genetic distances among cultivars. Only five primers w ere needed to … Show more

“…For instance, RAPD provides a simple PCR-based molecular tool for the evaluation of genetic variation, but its poor consistency and low reproducibility limit its use (Welsh and McClelland 1990;Roodt et al 2002). Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technology is now widely used for genomic fingerprinting (Zhang et al 1999;Karaca et al 2002) due to its high multiplexing ratio (Vos et al 1995).…”

“…Modern techniques using DNA makers have been extensively used in studies of the genetic diversity of C. dactylon. Roodt et al (2002) used the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique to determine the genetic relationship among C. dactylon cultivars in the South Africa. Caetano-Anollés et al (1997) and Caetano-Anollés (1998) used DNA fingerprinting techniques to investigate the genetic relationships among C. dactylon and the DAF method to analyze the genomes of 2 varieties of Tifgreen and Tifdrawf.…”

“…Isoenzyme electrophoresis was used to identify clonal forage bermudagrass cultivars (Dabo et al, 1990). In recent years, DNA markers, including DNA amplifi ed fi ngerprinting (DAF) (Caetano-Anolles et al, 1995;Ho et al, 1997;Anderson et al, 2001;Yerramsetty et al, 2005), random amplifi ed polymorphic DNA (RAPD) (Roodt et al, 2002), amplifi ed fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) (Zhang et al, 1999;Capo-chichi et al, 2005), and sequence-related amplifi ed polymorphism (SRAP) (Wang et al, 2009) have been used to evaluate and characterize bermudagrass genetic diversity and relatedness.
