Abstract

Two hundred 10-mer primers of arbitrary nucleotide sequence were used to study the genetic relationships among Muscat grapevines in Apulia. The coefficients of similarity of these genotypes were determined with 484 polymorphic RAPD bands (profiles). The bootstrap sampling analysis revealed that the number of RAPD bands was suitable to estimate the coefficients of similarity. The pattern of aggregation among genotypes (cluster analysis, principal coordinate analysis) indicates a diversity among the Muscats in Apulia except for Moscato Reale and Moscato Canelli, which were closely related.
