A total of 49 reproducible and scorable amplification products were generated across 16 cultivars (Tab. 1) and these were in the size range of 350 to 1800 bp. The number of amplification products generated by each primer varied from 4 (OPB-04) to 11 (OPD-11) with an average of 8.2 bands per primer. Out of 49 bands, 33 (67.35%) were found to be polymorphic for one or more cultivars ranging from 4 to 9 fragments per primer. Primers OPB-04 and OPA-12 gave the highest percentage of polymorphic bands, while the minimum polymorphism was observed using OPH-20 primer
