โœฆ Synopsis


Taxonomic and phylogenetic determinations within the genus Musa are established using a numerical, morphology-based scoring system. However, within this system, the classification and relationships of some types are disputed. The application of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis to Musa taxonomy provided valuable, supplemental information about the classification of, and relationships between, Musa species and subspecies. Whole-cell DNA was extracted from lyophilized Musa leaf-blade tissue and digested with various restriction enzymes, Southern blotted onto nylon membranes, and probed using radioactively labeled heterologous orchid cpDNA fragments. Phylogenies were inferred from cpDNA RFLP patterns using PAUP software. The relationships between most species examined were as expected; however, some species (M. beccarii and M. basjoo) did not conform to the conventional morphology-based phylogeny.

RFLPs were used to study genome evolution and phylogeny in Brassica and related genera. Thirtyeight accessions, including 10 accessions of B. rapa (syn. campestris), 9 cultivated types of B. oleracea, 13 nine-chromosome wild brassicas related to B. oleracea, and 6 other species in Brassica and allie

Preliminary analysis using nuclear RFLPs provided evidence that subspecies within Brassica rapa originated from two different centers. One center is in Europe, represented by turnip and turnip rape from which the oilseed sarson was derived. A second center is in South China containing a variety of C
