Estimation of Genetic Diversity in Onion (Allium cepa L.)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The experiment was conducted at the field laboratory of the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University, Gazipur during November 2008 to March 2009 to estimate the genetic diversity of exotic and local onion. Ten genotypes of onion were evaluated for 16 characters in a randomized complete block design to study the genetic divergence through multivariate analysis. Ten genotypes formed three clusters. Cluster III contained maximum number of five genotypes. Cluster I and II contained three and two genotypes, respectively. The inter cluster distance was larger than the intra cluster distances. The inter cluster distance was maximum between the cluster II and III (6.336) and minimum between the cluster I and II (3.876). The intra cluster distance in the entire three clusters was more or less low, indicating that genotypes within the same cluster were closely related. Considering clustered distance and cluster mean, the intra cluster distance revealed that the genotypes Indian big (G1) and Patnai pink (G5) from the cluster II and genotypes Taherpuri, Indian medium (G1), Big single bulb (G7), Big double bulb (G8), Small single bulb (G9) and Small double bulb (G10) from the cluster III may be selected as parents for future breeding program.

Towards a Framework PCR-Based Map of Onion (Allium cepa L.)
Genetic analysis of onion has been hampered by a lack of portable codominant markers based on the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The public release of a relatively large set of non-redundant onion expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in 2003 has provided the opportunity to develop such markers for use in Allium research and industry. We have mined this collection for simple sequence repeats (SSRs) ...

Onion (Allium cepa) bulb from Liliaceae has antioxidant, spasmolytic and antihypertensive activities. The aim of present study was to investigate the antispasmodic effect of onion peel on rat ileum contractility. Onion peel powder was extracted by maceration in 70% alcohol for 72 h. A terminal portion of ileum from male Wistar rat was dissected and its contractions were recorded isotonically in...

To study the weed population indexes of onion (Allium cepa L.) monoculture systems in the Jiroft area, four onion continuous monocultures, including less 3 (S1), 3-5 (S2), 5-8 (S3), more than 8 (S4) years and long-term fallow (F) were sampled by systematic randomized method in three stages: before sowing, 60 days after planting and 30 days after harvest, during 2015-2016. Of the 28 weed species...
