Zusammenfassung: | [Objective] The aim was to carry out RAPD analysis on genetic diversity of Varanus salvator. [Method] 20 random primers were used for PCR amplification of genomic DNA of 36 individuals of V. salvator. [Result] 10 primers could produce highly reproducible RAPD bands. A total of 2 952 DNA fragments were successfully amplified. Each individual got 82 amplified bands on average, 47 of which showed polymorphism. The polymorphic locus percent was 57.32%. The genetic distance among 36 individuals ranged from 0.035 9 to 0.335 9 with an average of 0.135 9. The Nei’s gene diversity index (H) and Shannon’s information index (I) were 0.1819 and 0.2630, respectively, indicating that V. salvator had greater genetic diversity. [Conclusion] The phylogenetic tree was inferred by using UPGMA analysis, it was found that the 36 individuals could be classified as one group, and there was no obvious population differentiation. |
