Abstract:
A fast and accurate genetic purity test of F₁ hybrid plants is essential for seed production and accelerating advanced breeding generations in breeding programmes. DNA technology has great potential for enhancing purity assessment of hybrids. Genetic purity of three F₁ chili hybrids was determined using two molecular marker techniques RAPD and ISSR. RAPD analysis successfully detected all three F₁ hybridity, while ISSR detected only two. This was due to the RAPD marker system producing a greater number of markers than the ISSR system.
