[Methods on construction of core germplasm collection of Scutellaria baicalensis by ISSR marker].

To build up primary core germplasm of Scutellaria baicalensis.The genetic diversity of 40 germplasm resources of Scutellaria baicalensis in different province were analyzed by ISSR, and the primary core germplasm were constructed with progressive sampling method of smallest genetic distance.15 primers, which showed good repetitive, special bands and distinct polymorphism, were selected from 51 random ISSR primers. Then the total 248 loci were amplified by these selected 15 primers, with a 97.17% polymorphic loci. The average of Shannon information index (I), Nei's genetic diversity (H), number of alleles and effective number of alleles (NE) by POPGENE 32 analysis were 0.4353, 0.2819, 1.9640 and 1.4617, respectively. It showed there was highly genetic diversity in the 40 germplasm resources. The result of analysis by NTSYS-PC software shows the genetic similarity (Gs) were among 0.64 and 0.80, and there was upper coherence between the clustering result and source core germplasm collection except individual germplasms. The result showed the percentage of polymorphic loci was obviously reduced and the Shannon's information index and Nei's genetic diversity were increased a little, but the index change of germplasm genetic diversity was less than that before sampling. The core germplasms from No. 3 sampling were most representative, whose sampling number was about 30% of the initial sampling, and the percentage of polymorphic loci was that of before sampling 96.8%.It was practicable that the methods would be used to construct core germplasm collection of Scutellaria baicalensis by ISSR marker.
