Abstract:

Genetic variation and linkage disequilibrium in a disease resistant seed orchard of Pinus elliottii Engelm were investigated by using RAPD markers in this paper. The results showed that the effective number of alleles per locus ranged between 1.047 and 1.996, averaging 1.449; Estimates of gene diversity per locus ranged between 0.0449 and 0.499, averaging 0.2781;and the Shannon's information index ranged between 0.1095 and 0.6922, averaging 0.4327. The order of these three measures per locus was the same. Out of 5356 pairs of RAPD loci in 104 segragating loci, 355 pairs showed significant deviations from linkage equilibrium. These results indicated that high genetic variation and linkage disequilibrium were harbored in this seed orchard.
