Abstract

A genetic variation of Lepista nuda and two genus Lepista species (L. irina and L. sordida) were analyzed by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis. In the resulting RAPD analysis, 22 out of 40 random primers amplified polymorphic RAPD fragment patterns, the amplified bands were 355, and DNA fragment sizes were 200-400bp. Intraspecific genetic dissimilarity of the 10 L. nuda strains were calculated to range from 0% to 21.60%, L. sordida from 16.93% to 24.82%, L. irina were 20.62% to 25.54%, and intraspecific genetic dissimilarity of L. sordida and L. irina was 23.49%. The 673 base pairs were sequenced during the analysis of the ITS I and II region; six L. nuda strains intraspecific genetic dissimilarities ranged from 1.58% to 11.47%, L. nuda and L. sordida from 3.83% to 12.88%, L. nuda and L. irina from 7.11% to 15.61%, and intraspecific genetic variation between L. sordida and L. irina was 4.79%. The findings showed that RAPD and ITS sequencing could be used for developing molecular genetic markers and screening of unidentified genus Lepista species.
