Overview

This study evaluates genetic diversity in 200 maize inbred lines, highlighting SSR markers' efficacy for classification.

Key Points

  • Phenotypic analysis grouped maize inbred lines into four distinct clusters based on agronomic traits.
  • SSR markers resulted in 230 polymorphic alleles with a mean PIC of 0.70, indicating high genetic variability.
  • Molecular analysis revealed distinct genetic clusters, differing from phenotypic classification patterns.
  • SSR-based clustering proved more reliable than phenotypic methods for genetic discrimination in maize germplasm.
