GENETIC DISTANCE DETERMINATION IN SOME GENOTYPES OF ARNICA MONTANA L., BY RAPD TECHNIQUE

SUMMARY

Arnica Montana L. is one of the most important plants, protected by European laws. Yet, due to its curative properties, the plants from the wild flora are collected by unauthorized persons, having no education in the conservation of this species and thus its existence in Romania is endangered. On the other hand, there is no large scale cultivation technology for this plant. The aim of our studies is to find valuable ecotypes of this plant and to design an amelioration program, by creation of high value cultivars. For this, it is necessary to determine the characteristics of the germplasm, and this paper presents a method to organize this.
