Abstract

To study the transferability of rice ( Oryza sativa L.) genome data, we used amplified consensus genetic markers to analyze the phylogenetic relationships among several species and genera in Gramineae. Ten accessions representing five grass genera ( Oryza, Zea, Setaria, Triticum, and Phyllostachys) were used. According to the genetic distances, a cluster tree was constructed. The relationships among the five genera could be simply described as (( Oryza + ( Zea + Setaria)) + Triticum) + Phyllostachys. The results suggest that the genetic distance between rice and maize ( Z. mays L.) or rice and millet ( Setaria italica L.) is closer than that between rice and wheat ( Triticum aestivum L) or rice and bamboo.
