Helichrysum italicum (Roth) G. Don is a Mediterranean medicinal plant with great potential in the cosmetics, culinary and pharmaceutical fields due to its unique bioactive compounds. Its recent introduction into agroecosystems has enhanced the exploitation of genetic diversity in natural populations, although limited molecular markers have made this challenging. In the present study, primers were designed for all 43 SSRs (72.1% mononucleotide, 21% dinucleotide and 6.9% trinucleotide repeats) identified in the chloroplast genome. Populations from Cape Kamenjak (Croatia) and Corsica (France) were analyzed with ten carefully selected cpSSR markers. From the initial set of 16 cpSSRs amplified in all samples, 6 cpSSR markers were removed due to low-length polymorphisms, size homoplasy and nucleotide polymorphisms that could not be detected with allele length. Of the 38 haplotypes detected, 32 were unique to their geographic origin. The highest number of private haplotypes was observed in the Cape Kamenjak population (seven out of nine detected). Based on clustering analyses, the Kamenjak population was the most similar to the Capo Pertusato (south Corsica) population, although only one sub-haplotype was shared. Other Corsican populations were more similar to each other. A cross-species transferability test with Helichrysum litoreum Guss. and Helichrysum arenarium (L.) Moench was successfully conducted and private alleles were identified. |
