Abstract:
Objective: To establish an optimum reaction system suitable for ISSR analysis of Astragalus membranaceus and to analyze the genetic diversity of wild populations in Inner Mongolia. Methods: A stable and reliable ISSR reaction system was set up combining the concentration gradient of the single factor test and orthogonal test. The genetic diversity of 30 A. membranaceus populations in nine zones of Inner Mongolia was analyzed using NTSYS2.1 software. Results: The optimal ISSR reaction system (20 μL) contained 10 × PCR buffer 2.0 μL, 1.5 mmol/L MgCl2, 0.4 mmol/L deoxyribonucleotide triphosphate (dNTP), 1.5 U Taq DNA polymerase, 0.5 μmol/L primer, and 40 ng template DNA. A total of 169 amplified loci were detected by 15 ISSR primers, in which 157 loci were polymorphic loci with the percentage of 75%~100%. The genetic distance amplitude ranged between 0.242 7-0.730 8. The clustering analysis showed that 30 A. membranaceus populations could be divided into two categories, and most of them corresponded to the geographical distribution. Conclusion: ISSR-PCR reaction system for A. membranaceus is stable and reliable. Wild resources of A. membranaceus in Inner Mongolia have higher genetic diversity. The genetic relationship of the populations is correlated with its geographic location.
