Abstract
Plant morphogenesis is a useful tool for physiological, biochemical, and molecular studies. The diversity in plant form is produced mainly because different parts of the plant grow at different rates. Furthermore, the growth of an individual structure is different in various dimensions. Such differential growth rates are very well determined by genetic factors. Understanding the relationships among wild cranberry morphologic and genetic characteristics may provide insights for better utilizing germplasm. The objectives of this research were to determine the relationships between genotype and development of morphologic features. Eleven morphologic characteristics (vegetative stage, flowering time, ripening start and ending, mass, volume and size of berry, berry form, leaf shape, steepness of upright) of 56 morphologically diverse genotypes from the 4 Lithuanian bogs were analyzed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) classifications. To compare wild cranberry (Vaccinium oxycoccus) morphologic characteristic 213 RAPD bands were used. Comparing wild cranberry genetic and morphologic features were found some significant variations.
