Abstract:

In this study,68 EST-SSR primers were used to analyze the genetic diversity, population structure and genetic differentiation of 144 tea germplasm resources, which were divided into three groups by different altitude ranges and species: Gro1 represented the tea population of Camellia tachangensis(F.C.Zhang) and over 1 500 m altitude, Gro2 represented the tea population of Camellia sinensis(L.) O. Ktze and altitude from 1 000 to 1 300 m, and Gro3 represented a population whose altitude and species are not obvious. The tea germplasmresources were analyzed according to species, zones and altitude ranges, Gst was 0.079 7, 0.067 7, 0.047 0, Nm was 5.774 1, 6.885 2, 10.134 8, respectively, which showed that genetic variation existed among different individuals within populations, and there were strong gene communication among different populations.The greater the altitude gap was,the farther the genetic distance was.This study further explained the altitude effect on the tea germplasm distribution in Guizhou,laid the foundation for further study on the evolution and distribution law of tea germplasm resources in Guizhou.

Key words: tea germplasm, population structure, genetic diversity
