Abstract

The genetic variation study among 96 samples of wax tree (Rhus succedanea L.) was used five suitable primers of SCoT (Start Codon Targeted) markers, SCoT46, SCoT47, SCoT48, SCoT52 and SCoT55.  It could be generated 36 bands of 800 to 3,000 bp.  Thirty-four bands (94.44) were polymorphic.  Heterozygosity (H) ranged from 0.21 to 0.39 with the average of 0.28.  Polymorphic information content (PIC) ranged from 0.299 to 0.375.  The coefficient of genetic differentiation (Gst) average was 0.275. The dendrogram was constructed using unweighted pair group method with arithmetic average (UPGMA) based on Jaccard’s similarity coefficients that were 0.130 to 0.923 and classified into 10 groups.  This result demonstrated that genetic variation of wax tree L. was high.  It could be used as a genetic database for wax tree improvement, domestication and genetic resource conservation in the future.
