Abstract

The present study was undertaken to study genetic relationships of sixteen accessions of Dendrocalamus strictus Roxb. on the basis of morphological characters and RAPD markers. Considerable variability was found among the accessions analyzed, yet, no significant relationship exhibited between genetic variation estimated by morphological and RAPD characters. The analysis of genetic relationship in Dendrocalamus strictus using morphological and RAPD banding data can be useful for framing plant improvement, conservation and management strategies.
