Molecular diversity analysis on 8 hybrids of tomato generated 27 polymorphic markers. The major allele frequency for the marker SSR1- and was least. The polymorphic information content value (PIC) ranged from () to () with an average PIC value of per marker indicating more diversity at DNA level. Alleles ranged from 1-8 per locus with an average of alleles per locus. Cluster analysis resulted into 3 main clusters and 4 subclusters. The diverse genotypes can be used for hybridization programmes. | Assessment of genetic diversity in hybrids of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) using SSR markers
