The genetic diversity of Cymbidium by ISSR
兰属Cymbidium植物ISSR遗传多样性分析

ISSR was applied to detect the relationship between 16 Cymbidium species, and 836 bands were amplified with 15 primers, including 227 polymorphic bands. The polymorphic percentage is 27.2%. UPGMA results showed that the genetic distance were closest between C.goeringii (Rchb.f.) Rchb.f. and C. goeringii var. longibracteatum, and C.lancifolium Hook. was far away from the other 15 species. This result is quite similar to the traditional classification, indicating that the technique could supplement some information to traditional taxonomy in the molecular level.
