Abstract

The understanding of genetic relationships among germplasm collections is essential in effective resource management. This has been studied in Sumatra Bioscience SumBio oil palm Elaeis guineensis Jacq. material using ISSR and AFLP methods in determining genetic relatedness within and between oil palm breeding material and wild material from Ghana. A major objective is to understand deficiencies and duplications in the current breeding materials and the opportunities for germplasm enhancement through the introduction of exotic material. The Ghana samples represent a collection from in and around the centre of diversity for oil palm and are expected to exhibit wide genetic variation including novel variation with future breeding potential. The data show that AFLPs produce more polymorphisms than ISSRs but each give similar patterns of diversity with respect to groupings of similar and dissimilar material. A more robust data set was produced by combining the ALFP and ISSR data. It was concluded that the Ghana wild oil palm material has low similarity with SumBio commercial material and has a greater genetic range.
