Abstract
A multi-disciplinary approach was used to characterize two
autochthonous lentil landraces from Molise region (Central Italy). Different
mature seed populations for each landrace were provided by the Molise
Germoplasm Bank at the University of Molise (Pesche, Italy), and analyzed
at the morphological and molecular (DNA and protein) levels. Nuclear ISSR
markers were used to assess genetic differences, whereas phenotypic
variability was detected by biochemical (proteomics) and morphological
analyses. The genetic and phenotypic diversity of the two lentil landraces
were well assessed in relation to their geographical provenance, supporting
further studies to identify landrace markers.
