Genetic Differences among Rootstocks Derived from the Teleki's Seedlings

The real origin (crossing partners) of rootstocks and their clones derived from Teleki’s seedlings are still unknown. Therefore, as a first step, we aimed at determining the genetic similarities or differences among these rootstocks by molecular tools. We have analysed 38 different rootstocks at seven microsatellite loci (VVMD5, VVMD6, VVMD7, VVMD28, VVMD31, VVS2, and VVS29). The genetic relatedness among the analysed clones can be inferred from the results presented in this paper.
