Abstract

Random amplified polymorphic DNA obtained with 10 different primers and peroxidase isoenzymes of Riesling, Silvaner and Müller-Thurgau were analyzed for genetic relationships between these grapevine varieties. It can be concluded that Müller-Thurgau is not a progenitor of a cross Riesling x Silvaner as generally assumed, but of Riesling and an unknown cultivar.
