Abstract
The main objective of the present study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of 17 (10 dent and 7 flint) inbred lines of maize in relation to yield performance of 70 hybrids produced according to North Carolina II design “dent × flint”. To assess genetic divergence among 17 inbred lines, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) molecular markers were used. Twelve different, primers consisting of 18 nucleotides were used to produce a total of 404 reproducible amplification DNA fragments, the majority of which were polymorphic. The values of genetic distance were calculated according to Nei & Li method (1979). The genetic distance among pairs of inbred lines ranged from 0.29 to 0.72. A dendrogram was constructed by an unweighted pair-group method using arithmetic averages (UPGMA). Cluster analysis divided the inbred lines into three groups: one including the flint lines only, and two groups composed of the dent type lines. The average value of genetic distance for pair comparison between the dent lines was higher (GD = 0.56) than that for the flint lines (GD = 0.46). Regression of hybrids grain yield on a genetic distance of their parental inbred lines showed very low correlation. The method used in this research is useful to allocate lines into a heterotic group rather than predict hybrid yield performance.
