   Abstract
 

The polymorphism and relationships among 51 Erianthus arundinaceum accessions were assessed with RAPDs. One hundred and twenty-seven bands were detected, of which 89 were polymorphic (70.07%). Accession relationships were estimated through cluster analysis (UPGMA) based on RAPD data.

 

Key words: Erianthus arundinaceum, genetic diversity, RAPD, UPGMA.
