   Abstract
 

Identification of “Saccharum officinarum × Erianthus fulvus” F1 hybrids was performed with random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Of 280 RAPD primers used, two primers, OPA-19 and OPN-11, were found to be the most suitable for identification of the hybrids. And the hybrids facticity-check-out rate was 70.6 and 68.3%, respectively.

 

Key words: Sugarcane hybrids, identification, RAPD.
