Utilization of Novel Perilla SSR Markers to Assess the Genetic Diversity of Native Perilla Germplasm Accessions Collected from South Korea.

ABSTRACT: The Perilla crop is highly regarded in South Korea, both as a health food and traditional food. However, there is still a lack of Perilla SSR primer sets (PSPSs) for studying genetic variation among accessions of cultivated and weedy types of Perilla crop (CWTPC) from South Korea. In this study, 30 PSPSs were newly developed based on transcriptome contigs in P. frutescens, and 17 of these PSPSs were used to study the genetic diversity, phylogenetic relationships and structure population among 90 accessions of the CWTPC collected from South Korea. A total of 100 alleles were detected from selected 17 PSPSs, with an average of 5.9 alleles per locus. The gene diversity (GD) ranged from 0.164 to 0.831, with an average of 0.549. The average GD values from the cultiva
