Five cultivars of Plantago ovata Forsk. (medicinal plant) have been developed by different agricultural universities in India. Genetic variability of these cultivars was estimated using RAPD markers. The data were correlated to morphological characters and a dendrogram was obtained from Jaccard's coefficient.

Keywords: random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD); dendrogram
Subjects: cultivar and genotype differences, genetic variability estimation; dendrogram; genetic variability, estimation; isabgul, dendrogram; Plantago ovata; random amplified polymorphic DNA, dendrogram
