ABSTRACT
Genetic diversity studies among Gymnema sylvestre accessions were analyzed using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. A total of twenty random decamer primers were used to analyze the diversity studies among twenty four G.sylvestre accessions which generated a total of 140 bands. Jaccard’s similarity coefficient showed a wide range (00.12 to 0.95) of variability among all twenty four accessions. UPGMA cluster analysis grouped the G.sylvestre variants into two major clusters, cluster-A and cluster-B. RAPD studies revealed that 74% genetic similarity has been recorded among the accessions collected from different regions. This marker studies will be helpful in conservation of Gymnema species.
Key words: Gymnema sylvestre, anti diabetic, genetic diversity, molecular markers, RAPD markers.
