Genetic Diversity Analysis and Polyploid Induction Identification of <i>Idesia polycarpa</i>.

ABSTRACT: Idesia polycarpa from Sichuan is a valuable germplasm with high economic potential, but it faces variety scarcity. To address this, this study collected 16 varieties (lines), identifying IpHT1 as a promising parent due to its high oil content (38.5%) and red fruits. Polyploid induction via adding 0.50% colchicine to Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium yielded 520 IpHT1 mutagenized seedlings. Subsequently, flow cytometry (FCM) was performed on 401 morphologically variant seedlings which had been initially screened, resulting in the identification of 15 suspected triploids, 35 suspected tetraploids, and 3 chimeras. Furthermore, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis found that the probe (AG₃T₃)₃ had terminal signals at both ends of each chromos
