Abstract/Contents:"Smooth bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss.) is classified into three ecotypes; northern, intermediate and southern. The objective of this study was to analyze the genetic relationships of cultivars belonging to the three ecotypes using AFLP markers. The seven AFLP primer combinations used produced 176 polymorphic markers. The grouping of cultivars was more closely related to their pedigrees (breeding history) than the ecotype to which they belonged. The more recently developed southern type cultivars (Badger, Alpha and Radisson) were grouped closely with the intermediate type cultivars (Magna and Signal). The northern type cultivars (Carlton, Jubilee and S-7133) grouped loosely with the above cluster. The older southern type cultivars, Baylor, Lincoln. Beacon and Blair, grouped distantly from the rest of the cultivars. The distant clustering of the older southern type cultivars from those more recently developed may indicate introgression of northern ecotype germplasm into the latter. This study shows that AFLP markers can be used to differentiate phenotypically similar smooth bromegrass cultivars according to their breeding history."
