Abstract
IntroductionCurcuma isolates from different agroclimatic zones in Chhattisgarh have been found to possess a varied spectrum of Curcumin, we set out to learn more about their genetic diversity by molecular fingerprinting in the present study. MethodsUsing SSR primers, the genetic variability of 25 Curcuma genotypes has been analyzed. These included the fingerprints of Curcuma longa, Curcuma aromatica, and Curcuma caesia. 13 inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) primers amplified 107 unique fragments across all kinds, whereas 11 simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers amplified 51 unique fragments across all varieties, with 97 % and 86 % showing polymorphism, respectively. ResultsA total of 1080 ISSR and 567 SSR loci were amplified across all genotypes; among these, 5 monomorphic and 102 polymorphic alleles were produced in ISSR primers. However, SSR data showed 47 polymorphic and 4 monomorphic alleles. A panel of ISSR and SSR markers calculated DNA fingerprinting, genetic similarity, and distance estimates between Curcuma genotypes. In order to examine the diversity in different Curcuma genotypes, UPGMA data scoring methods were used. DiscussionCurcuma species demonstrate significant genetic variability, which is essential for breeding initiatives focused on creating better cultivars with desirable characteristics such as increased productivity, resistance to diseases, and improved medicinal capabilities.
