Abstract
The results of analysis of 26 grain sorghum varieties selected in the Institute of Grain Crops of NAAS on four microsatellite loci (markers Sb4-32, Sb4-121, Sb6-57, Sb6-84) are represented. 33 alleles, in average 8.3 alleles per locus, were identified indicating a high level of genetic diversity of the studied varieties. Index of polymorphism information content of the given SSR-markers for the array of studied samples ranged from 0.42 to 0.73. Identified allelic status of the microsatellite loci is recommended for application in breeding process for certification, identification and registration of grain sorghum varieties of national selection.
