Abstract
Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique with 15 arbitrary primers was used to identify and reveal relationships of the accessions comprising 4 species ofLolium-Festuca complex. Altogether 252 RAPD markers were considered in statistical treatment, 60 of which could be identified as potentially taxon-specific. All analyzed taxa were fully distinguishable using RAPD markers.Lolium-Festuca relationships based on RAPD data were evaluated using cluster analysis (UPGMA) and principle coordinate analysis (PCO). The results of UPGMA as well as PCO performed on data pooled from all RAPD profiles support separation of the two generaLolium andFestuca.
