Conclusion
Reference
8 CAC SSRs
(2, 3, 4, 6, 8,
10, 11, 13)
Global
130 (75 tall and
55 dwarf ) of
94 ecotypes
8 SSRs could discriminate
116 out of 130
analyzed; 5 main
groups found with
either talls or dwarfs
[18]
12 CAC SSRs
Global
130 individuals
of 51 talls and
43 dwarfs
2 groups (first group with
talls of southeast Asia,
Pacific, west coast
of Panama, and all
dwarfs; second group
with other talls of
south Asia, Africa, and
Indian Ocean coast of
Thailand)
[19]
15 CAC SSRs
Florida,
USA
56 individuals of
5 populations;
54 individuals
of 9 cultivars,
1 hybrid
Identification of
population specific
alleles for genotypic
identification, especially
for Fiji dwarf
[20]
14 CnCir SSRs
India
102 palms of 10
landraces (8
talls; 2 dwarfs)
in 3 locations
of South India
Expected heterozygosity
highest in the 2
tall populations of
Pallikara but least in
2 dwarfs of Vayalar.
Landraces clustered by
geographical locations
and breeding behavior
[21]
41 SSRs CnZ
series; 8
SSRs in detail
Philippines
Initially 40
accessions;
10 tall and 10
dwarf cultivars
in detail
Dwarf cultivars grouped
separately from talls
and displayed less
genetic diversity
[22]
26 SSRs from
CAC, CNZ,
and CnCir
Hainan
Islands,
China
45 individuals of
10 accessions,
hybrids from
6 locations
Hybrids formed distinct
and homogenous
groups; high genetic
diversity; gene
exchange between
individuals was limited
[24]
13 CnCir SSRs
Dominican
Republic
13 accessions
from 9
locations of
Criollo local
tall cultivar;
2 hybrids
Criollo genetically close
to Atlantic tall of
Mexico and belong to
Indo Atlantic group
[25]
