The simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers analysis was done to determine the allelic diversity and relationship among 23 rice varieties developed by Dr, B. S. K. K. V. Dapoli. A total of 35 SSR primer pairs were polymorphic and generated 184 alleles with an average of 5.26 alleles per primer pair. The number of alleles amplified for each primer pair ranged from 2 to 8. The polymorphic information content (PIC) values of each primer pair ranged from...
