Peanut is an allotetraploid derived from a single recent polyploidization. Polyploidization has been reported to have caused significant loss in genetic diversity during the domestication of cultivated peanuts. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based markers such as cleaved amplified polymorphic sequences (CAPS) derived from next-generation sequencing (NGS) have been developed and widely applied for breeding and genetic research in peanuts. This study aimed to identify the genetic diversity and population structure using 30 CAPS markers and 96 peanut accessions from five different origins. High genetic dissimilarities were detected between the accessions from Korea and those from the other three South American origins generally regarded as the origin of peanuts, while the accessions from Brazil and Argentina presented the lowest genetic dissimilarity. Based on the results of the present study, accessions from Korea have unique genetic variation compared to those from other countries, while accessions from the other four origins are closely related. Our study identified the genetic differentiation in 96 peanut accessions from five different origins, and this study also showed the successful application of SNP information derived from re-sequencing based on NGS technology.

AFLP(Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) analysis was conducted to cultivars of tobacco, Nicotiana tabacum in order to select the cultivar-specific markers. AFLP results using 12 primer sets revealed genetic diversity among 12 field grown tobacco cultivars. Polymorphic fragments amplified by PCR was purified and cloned to identify their nucleotide sequences. From the sequences of them, 40 primer sets were designed to select cultivar-specific markers. When genomic DNA isolated from tobacco were used as PCR template, a set of primers, BrSF/BrSR showed Burley-specific band patterns. The results indicate that AFLP technique used in this experiments is useful for identifying tobacco cultivars in a rapid manner.

This study was conducted to assess the genetic diversity and population structure of 70 amaranth accessions collected from South and Southeast Asia using 14 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. In total, 67 alleles were detected, with an average of 4.79 per locus. Rare alleles comprised a large portion (46.3%) of the detected alleles, and 29 unique alleles associated with rice accessions were also discovered. The mean major allele frequency (MAF), genetic diversity (GD) and polymorphic information content (PIC) of the 14 SSR loci were 0.77, 0.36, and 0.34, respectively. A model-based structural analysis revealed the presence of three subpopulations. The genetic relationships revealed by the neighbor-joining tree method were fairly consistent with the structure-based membership assignments for most of the accessions. All 70 accessions showed a clear relationship to each cluster without any admixtures. We observed a relatively low extent of genetic exchange within or among amaranth species from South and Southeast Asia. The genetic diversity results could be used to identify amaranth germplasms and so facilitate their use for crop improvement.

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is a herb primarily distributed throughout in the world. We have used the inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) technique to investigate the phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity of C. tinctorius. Of all germplasms, 88.7% were polymorphic among all germplasms. Mean genetic diversity within germplasms was very low (0.048). The Turkey germplasm had the highest expected diversity (0.082) and Australia germplasm was the lowest (0.020). These values indicate that most of the genetic diversity of safflower is found among germplasms and there is a high among-germplasm differentiation. We found eight phenetic bands for determining the specific marker of germplasm with SCAR markers. The regions of the Mediterranean Sea and India may be the most probable candidates for the origin of safflower. The tree showed four major clades: (1) European germplasms, (2) Azerbaijan, Egypt, and Ethiopia, (3) Australia, and (4) America.

The genetic diversity and the genetic relationship among 30 genetic resources of T. officinale and T. coreanum collected from 20 regions in Korea were evaluated by using ISSR markers. Out of 127 loci detected overall, 122 were identified to be polymorphic with a rate of 96.0% at the 30 individuals. The intraspecific polymorphism between T. officinale and T. coreanum was 92.6% and 88.2%, respectively. The genetic similarity matrix (GSM) revealed a wide range of variablility among the 30 accessions, spanning from 0.179 to 922. According to the clustering analysis, different species T. officinale and T. coreanum, were divided into independent groups and all of the accessions could be classified into 7 categories. Especially, all of the mountain collected accessions belonged to independent groups. The study findings indicate that T. officinale and T. coreanum accessions have a high genetic diversity and accordingly carry a germ-plasm qualifying as good genetic resources for breeding.

This study used RAPD markers to assume genetic diversity and variation in selected populations of Hovenia dulcis var. koreana. Ratio of polymorphic RAPD markers were 93.4% in selected populations of Hovenia dulcis Thunb., difference of genetic structure among populations and within populations showed 16.45%, 83.55%, respectively in amount of total genetic variation of 4 populations. Total gene diversity($H_T$) that show genetic diversity appeared 0.313 and coefficient of gene differentiation($G_{ST}$) that compare genetic differentiation of populations appeared 0.1645, analysis of AMOVA for variation among populations and within populations was significantly different (P<0.001). Genetic diversity of whole populations showed that 12.44% difference among population and 87.56% difference within populations. As a result, difference within populations was larger than difference among populations in genetic diversity. Nei's genetic distance and cluster analysis appeared that mean genetic distance among populations was 0.076, thus dividing two main groups and geographic relationship did not show in populations.

The population structure of a domesticated species is influenced by the natural history of the populations of its pre-domesticated ancestors, as well as by the breeding system and complexity of breeding practices implemented by humans. In the genetic and population structure analysis of 122 South Asia collections using 29 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, 362 alleles were detected, with an average of 12.5 per locus. The average expected heterozygosity and polymorphism information content (PIC) for each SSR locus were 0.74 and 0.72,respectively. The model-based structure analysis revealed the presence of three clusters with the 91.8% (shared > 75%) membership, with 8.2% showing admixture. The genetic distances of Clusters 1-3 were 0.55, 0.56, and 0.68, respectively. Polymorphic information content followed the same trend (Cluster 3 had the highest value and Cluster 1 had smallest value), with genetic distances for each cluster of 0.52, 0.52, and 0.65, respectively. This result could be used for supporting rice breeding programs in South Asia countries.

The higher fragment sizes (>2,100 bp) are not observed in the two C. spp. populations. The six oligonucleotides primers OPA-11, OPB-09, OPB-14, OPB-20, OPC-14, and OPC-18 were used to generate the unique shared loci to each tonguesole population and shared loci by the two tonguesole populations. The hierarchical polar dendrogram indicates two main clusters: Gunsan (GUNSAN 01-GUNSAN 11) and the Atlantic (ATLANTIC 12-ATLANTIC 22) from two geographic populations of tonguesoles. The shortest genetic distance displaying significant molecular difference was between individuals' GUNSAN no. 02-GUNSAN no. 01 (genetic distance=0.038). In the long run, individual no. 02 of the ATLANTIC tonguesole was most distantly related to GUNSAN no. 06 (genetic distance=0.958). These results demonstrate that the Gunsan tonguesole population is genetically different from the Atlantic tonguesole population. The potential of PCR analysis to identify diagnostic markers for the identification of two tonguesole populations has been demonstrated. As a rule, using various oligonucleotides primers, this PCR method has been applied to identify polymorphic/specific markers particular to species and geographical population, as well as genetic diversity/polymorphism in diverse species of organisms.

The genetic diversity of two subpopulations of Corynandra chelidonii, one of terrestrial and the other of aquatic environments, was measured with molecular markers, such as start codon targeted (SCoT), inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR), and random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD). The traditional morphological traits such as habitat, habit, leaf morphology, the colour of the sepals and petals, number of stamens, and seed morphology formed the base for their realization as two varieties, C. chelidonii var. pallae and C. chelidonii var. chelidonii. The polymorphism between the two variants was 100% with the primers SCoT-2 and OPA-1 and 4, while maximum polymorphism was detected with ISSR-2, SCoT-3, and OPA-3. The study used, for the first time, more than one molecular marker to assess the genetic variation underscoring the morphological variation in Corynandra chelidonii (L.f.) Cochrane & Iltis. The study justifies the recognition of the two subpopulations of Corynandra chelidonii from aquatic and terrestrial environments as two distinct varieties, C. chelidonii var. pallae (Reddy & Raju) V.S.Raju and C. chelidonii var. chelidonii, respectively, based on the traditional taxonomic evidence.

The cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) marker uses a restriction enzyme recognition site resulting from single nucleotide polymorphisms and insertions and deletions on the DNA sequence. This technique does not require expensive equipment, the process is simple, and clear results can be obtained reliably. In this study, Agaricus bisporus cultivars SaeA, SaeDo, SaeHan, SaeYeon, SaeJeong, Dodam, Seolgang, Dahyang, Hogam, and Hadam developed in Korea were discriminated using four CAPS markers. Our results indicated that it is possible to distinguish the ten cultivars and determine the genetic diversity among them.
