[Genetic diversity and differentiation of cultivated Fagoyrum tataricum populations from three counties in south Liangshan Automomous Prefecture of Yi Nationality, Sichuan, China].
Genetic diversity and differentiation among 8 cultivated populations of Fagopyrum tataricum from the counties of Jinyang, Leibo and Miyi in south Liangshan Autonomous Prefecture of Yi Nationality, Sichuan Province, China were investigated using allozyme electrophoresis. The allozymic diversity is roughly correlated with agrobiological features. The results suggest that genetic diversity of F. tataricum is quite high. The mean number of alleles per locus A is 1.8; the percentage of polymorphic loci P is 46.6%, and the mean observed heterozygosities Ho and the mean expected heterozygosities He are 0.187 and 0.218 respectively, the ratios of gene diversities of heterozygosities Fsr is 0.22, which indicates that there is 22 percent of genetic differentiation among populations, and suggests that for protecting genetic resources all the populations should be included in.
