Abstract
Analysis of the extent and distribution of genetic diversity in crop plants is essential for optimizing sampling and breeding strategies. Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA marker was used to assess genetic diversity in a selected group of maize inbred lines. A high level of polymorphism of 73.02 per cent was detected among the genotypes. The maximum genetic distance of 29.7 per cent was detected between CM-202 and KDMI-16. While, the minimum genetic distance of 12.8 per cent was observed between KDMI-04 and CI-05. The results indicated that variation can be attributed to use of random primers as well as variation that naturally occur in the genotypes. Therefore, the study indicated that RAPD marker are successful in identifying genetic diversity in maize inbred lines.
