Abstract
Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) analysis was used to generate informative DNA fingerprints from Magnolia denudata, M. liliiflora, and pu tative cultivars of their hybrid cross, i.e., M. x soulangeana, M. x soulan geana 'Lennei', M. x soulangeana 'Rustica Rubra' ' M. x soulangeana 'Alba', M. x soulangeana 'Ruby', and M x soulangeana 'San Jose'. A single specimen of unknown origin and representatives of the closely related M. campbellii and M. stellata were also included in the analysis. We show how this metho d may be used for distinguishing among cultivars.
