Diversidade genética de isolados de Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense em helicônia utilizando ARDRA e RAPD

Abstract

Heliconias are the most cultivated flowers in tropical floriculture of the Brazil northeast, due to its characteristics like beauty, exotic, exuberant colors and rusticity, but its yield has being affected by Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense. The present study had how objective to determine the genetic diversity existing between the isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. cubense collected in heliconia and banana through the ITS region of rDNA using ARDRA (Amplified Ribossomal DNA Restriction Analysis), markers like RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA). In the ARDRA analysis products amplified by ITS1 and ITS4 primers were digested by restriction enzymes Hae III, Xho I, Hind III and Eco IV by 37ºC. But only enzyme Hae III showed to be efficient a molecular marker, to analysis genetic diversity of F. oxysporum f. sp. cubense to RAPD marker was realized the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) using tenoligonucleotides follow arbitrary up, only seven oligonucleotides generated a total 44 bands polymorphic with fragments varying from 100 pb to 700 pb. The two techniques used in the study genetic diversity showed high genetic variability of fungal, don’t related to with geographical region where were colleted the isolates.
