Abstract
The conventional method of classifying CMS lines on fertility restoration atterns is cumbersome and time consuming. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFL P ) of mitochondria1 (mt) DNA provides a rapid and effective method to assess heterogeneity among male-sterile
cytoplasms. With this objective, six isonuclear A-lines (81A, with Tift 23A, cytoplasm, ICMA 88001 (= 81 A,) with violaceum cytoplasm, 81 A (= 81 A ) with monodii = violaceum cytoplasm, Pb 310A, and Pb 31 1A, with A, cytoplasm, a n $ ~ b4 06a with A cytoplasm), nine male-sterile lines from Large-seeded Genepool ( LSGP 6, LSGP 14, ~ G17P, LS GP 22, LSGP 28, LSGP 36, LSGP 43, LSGP 55 and LSGP 66) and two CMS lines each from Early Genepool (EGP 1 and EGP 2) and Population Varieties (PV 1 and PV 2) were characterized for variation in their mitochondrial genomes following Southern blot hybridizations using homologous (pearl millet 13.6 kb, 10.9 kb, 9.7 kb and 4.7 kb clones) and heterologous (maize atp6 and cox1 clones) mtDNA
probes. Based on RFLP banding pattern we identified seven cytoplasmic groups from the LSGP. Of the LSGP cytoplasms, LSGP 43, LSGP 55 and LSGP 66 were most diverse......
