The authors have previously reported an efficient in vitro system for mass micropropagation of Robinia ambigua 'idahoensis' (Idaho locust). Their method used enhanced branching of axillary buds from a single donor plant along with detection of somaclonal variation by the intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. Because ISSRs tend to be clustered to specific chromosomal regions in plant genomes, the extent and scope of the genomic variations and the sequences underlying the variation warranted further investigations. In this study, the authors analyzed the same set of 40 randomly selected micropropagated R. ambigua plants by a more general molecular marker— random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) using 34 selected primers. In addition, they sequenced some of the variable bands. Of the 260 reproducible RAPD bands scored, 70 were polymorphic among the 41 plants (40 micropropagated and one donor), corresponding to a polymorphism level of 26%. Cluster analysis revealed a genetic similarity ranging from 0.61 to 0.97. Of the 20 sequenced bands underlying the variations, eight showed significant homology to known or predicted functional cellular genes or retroelements. These results clearly indicated that micropropagation of R. ambigua, even by enhanced branching of axillary buds, can be accompanied by extensive genomic variations, which should be taken into account for commercial propagation of this plant by in vitro means. Robinia ambigua, commonly called Idaho locust, belongs to the legume family (Fabaceae), and is presumably a hybrid be- tween the black locust (R. pseudoacacia L.) and either the shrub bristly locust (R. hispida L.) or the clammy locust (R. viscosa Vent.). This tree has combined features of both parental species, including the higher plant stature of the black locust (15 m compared with 9-30 m) and the vivid coloring of the bristly locust (Fowells, 1965). Micropropagation through in vitro culture has been shown to be an efficient means for propagation of endangered or valuable plants (Osorio-Rosales and Mata-Rosas, 2005; Par- edes and Lavin, 2005). Recently, we have established an efficient in vitro culture system for the micropropagation of R. ambigua by using enhanced branching of axillary buds (Guo et al., 2006). Surprisingly, molecular analysis by the intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers showed genomic variations in these propagated plants (Guo et al., 2006). Nonetheless, because the ISSR markers often confine to specific chromosomal regions, such as the disease-resistance gene analogous clusters (Ratnaparkhe et al., 1998), in plant genomes, the extent and scope of the genomic variations and the sequences underlying these variations remain unknown. This study was aimed to address these issues by using a more general molecular marker, the randomly am- plified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), which is known to distribute and amplify unbiased loci throughout the genome (Sauve et al., 2005; Williams et al., 1990). We report that a high level of genomic variations indeed occurred in the R. ambigua var. idahoensis micro- propagated plants. Moreover, cellular genes and retroelements appeared to underlie a sub- stantial proportion of the variations.
