Twenty arbitrary oligonucleotide primers used in the RAPD</span><span>?</span><span>PCR produced a total of 584 different marker bands with an average of 29.2 bands per primer.

A total of 15 unique bands were amplified from the genome of the 11 tomato varieties. The values of pair</span><span>?</span><span>wise genetic distances ranged from 0.1838 </span><span>- </span><span>0.9049, indicating the presence of wide genetic diversity. The dendogram constructed based on phylogenetic relationship analysis revealed that the highest genetic diversity (0.9049) found between the variety BARI Tomato 8 and RATAN whereas the lowest (0.1838) between the variety BARI Tomato 9 and MADHURI. The dendogram has segregated the 11 tomato varieties into two major clusters. RATAN and SPECIAL</span><span>?</span><span>OP formed cluster 1 and rest 9 varieties </span><span>viz</span><span>., ROMA</span><span>?</span><span>VF, MARGLOBE, MADHURY and BARI Tomato 9, 2, 6, 14, 8 and 3 have constituted the second cluster.</span></p><div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><div class="page" title="Page 1"><div class="layoutArea"><div class="column"><p><span>Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. </span><span>23</span><span>(1): 49</span><span>?</span><span>57, 2013 (June)</span></p><p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ptcb.v23i1.15559">http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ptcb.v23i1.15559</a></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>}, number={1}, journal={Plant Tissue Culture and Biotechnology}, author={Tabassum, Nadra and Sony, Sonia Khan and Bhajan, Sujay Kumar and Islam, Mohammad Nurul}, year={2013}, month={Jul.}, pages={49?57} }
