Abstract

This articles deals with genetic diversity and parentage analysis (Bhagwa × Daru‐17), among 70 F 1 progenies using 17 hyper variable simple sequence repeats (SSR) primers. These markers yielded 49 alleles with an average of 2.29 alleles per marker. The average polymorphic information content (PIC; 0.49) and Shannon information index (0.73) indicated a high genetic diversity level in the F 1 offsprings. Out of 17 SSRs, ten markers showed high PIC values > 0.5, i.e., HvSSR9, HvSSR12, HvSSRT413, HvSSRT408, HvSSRT868, HvSSRT259, HvSSRT298, HvSSRT465, HvSSRT609, and HvSSRT605. The fixation index of
