- Abstract
To differentiate the taxa at the specific and varietals levels a range of DNA fingerprinting techniques are being employed. The objective of the current study was to establish the genetic correlation between the morphologically comparable two Melilotus species i.e. Melilotus indica and M. alba by using five RAPD and ten CCMPs. The percentage polymorphism between the two studied species was 33.33 indicating that they are intimately related and symbolize novel incongruity. Owing to less significant level of genetic variation, detected through RAPD and CCMP, the differences between the two species could be attributed to gene mutation or minor chromosomal alterations.
