Abstract

In the National Center of Agricultural Health
(CENSA), seeds from six possible tomato radiomutants with
their respective donating varieties were sown in glasshouses,
with the objective of evaluating their genetic variability by
means of RAPD markers. The 14 primers used generated 80
polymorphic bands, determining a total of 90 bands. These
results suggest the existence of a great genetic diversity inside
the analyzed material, molecularly differing four genotypes
from their respective donating varieties.
