O. dos S. aGenetic diversity of mango accessions (Mangifera indica) using new microsatellite markers and morphological descriptors.h[electronic resource] c2016 aGenetic diversity estimates based on morphological and molecular data can provide different information on the relationship between cultivars of a species. This study aimed to develop new microsatellite markers as additional tools in genetic studies on mangoes (Mangifera indica L.), and to analyze the genetic variability of 20 mango cultivars based on morphological descriptors and microsatellite markers. We aimed to better understand the cultivars enhanced breeding histories and to support crossbreeding planning. Positive clones were selected from a DNA library enriched for microsatellite regions for sequencing and primer design. Four plants of each of the 20 accessions were used for observations, based on 48 morphological descriptors. Twenty accessions were analyzed using 27 microsatellite markers, of which 16 were developed during this study. The clusters, based on the morphological descriptors by Ward - MLM strategy and the microsatellite markers, suggested that Brazilian mango cultivars have extensive genetic diversity and are related to cultivars with different provenances, demonstrating their different enhanced breeding histories. aManga aMangifera Indica aMarcador molecular aDiversidade genética aGenetic breeding aMango aMelhoramento genético aMolecular marker aSSR aVariabilidade genética aWard-MLM1 aLIMA NETO, F.
