Abstract

Sorghum is a multifunction plant due to its high economic value as a source of food, feed and industrial raw material of biofuel. Sorghum improvement can be done through mutation breeding and this research was conducted to evaluate the power of mutation breeding by observing the difference between mutant and its original counterpart. Varieties of sorghum Durra, Zhengzu and their mutants B-100 and Zh-30 were arranged in completely randomized design. DNA extraction was done using a modified CTAB method. After purification, quantification, and dilution, PCR was carried out for RAPD analysis. The result showed that Durra and Zhengzu varieties were significantly different in plant height, number of leaves and seed colour, however the mutant and its original counterpart cannot be differentiated morphologically. RAPD can be used to differentiate mutant and its original counterpart by observing the specific band pattern from each primer.

Abstract

Tea plant has been categorized as self-incompatible crop. This is the reason behind the high genetic diversity. Natural pollination is possible to occur and the male parent is usually unknown, therefore, there is a need of method to identify male parent of hybrids through paternity analysis. Isozyme markers have been successfully used for paternity analysis due to their co-dominant polymorphism. This research aimed to predict male parents of hybrids by figuring out the mating system through isozyme banding patterns. In this experiment, seven enzyme systems were evaluated, of which only two of the enzyme systems i.e. esterase and shikimate dehydrogenase showing clear band pattern of Est-1, Est-2, and Shd-1 loci. The mating system of tea could be categorized as a mixed mating model, with high estimated out-crossing rate of 98.6 %. The pollen contributors were not always originated from the vicinity of the female parents.Key words: isozyme markers, paternity analysis, tea
