Abstract
Plantago major plants from several Scottish and Dutch locations were s urveyed for their genetic variation using PCR markers, namely RAPD ana lysis, anchored inter-SSR PCR, and chloroplast PCR followed by RFLP an alysis. The RAPD and inter-SSR markers showed a differentiation betwee n the two subspecies of P. major. These results are discussed in relat ion to earlier results using allozyme electrophoresis, DNA fingerprint ing, and chloroplast RFLP analysis.
