Abstract
Random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis was used to identify and differentiate the 13 strawberry cultivars of Quebec's certification program. DNA extracts from leaves of field plants were analyzed. Young and apparently healthy leaves were chosen to ensure a good quality of DNA. A selection of only two primers, in a test combination, was sufficient to attain the anticipated result. Key words: Strawberry (Fragaria spp.), random amplified polymorphic DNA, RAPD, cultivar identification
