Characterization of Hypericum perforatum L. Plants from Various Accessions by RAPD Fingerprinting

Pages 163-169 | Published online: 12 Oct 2008
 

SUMMARY

RAPD fingerprints of individual plants of Hypericum perforatum from different accessions are discussed in this paper. From a wild population, 10 offspring were investigated by genome analyses. The results obtained revealed that the collection included significantly polymorphic genotypes. Whereas 7 of the individuals displayed identical fingerprints, obviously representing the dominant genotype of this accession, a deviating but also identical genotype was shown by 2 plants and a third genotype was represented by another plant. Additionally, genome characterization of progenies from individual plants of 4 further accessions were performed. The results show that most of the fingerprints from each accession indicated an identical mode of reproduction for H perforatum. Nevertheless, non-identical progenies could be discovered as a minor event by RAPD analyses.
