Abstract

Estimates of population differentiation based on genotypes at enzyme loci were compared with estimates based on measurement characters for three predominately self-fertilizing plant species, Avena, batbata, Hordeum jubatum, and Hordeum vulgare, and the predominantly outcrosslng plant species, Clarkia williamsonil. Associations between the estimates were statistically significant in the three selfing species but not in C. williamsonil. This result suggests that enzyme marker loci may be useful tools for identifying desirable characteristics in predominantly self-fertilizing plant species.
