Abstract:Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was applied to eight populations of wild soybeans (Glycine soja ) from five different latitudes and five populations within Jinhua, Zhejiang Province respectively. Cluster analysis based on genetic distance generated from the RAPD data showed that there were high genetic variations among G. soja populations from different latitude and within Jinhua area. There were some evidences showing noticeable correlation existed between the variations and the geograph...
