Abstract
Arthrocnemum macrostachyum, is a perennial halophytic shrub typical of Mediterranean salt marshes. The present study aims to investigate some combinations of inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers applied in real PCR. Thereby, the potential of R-ISSR markers to detect new genomic loci in 3 genotypes of A. macrostachyum grown in the Western coast of Syria was examined. Different combinations of RAPD and ISSR primers produced bands that were absent when single ISSR or RAPD primers were used. The results have demonstrated that ISSR primer (AG)8TC gave more informative pattern when combined with different RAPD primers comparing to other tested primers. In contrast, the tested ISSR primer (GACA)4 gave less informative pattern when used alone. These combinations were successfully applied in real PCR to detect new genomic variability in A. macrostachyum genotypes.
