ABSTRACT

The genetic closeness of various species ofVandawas determined using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). Strap-leavedVandaspecies (includingVanda sanderiana) andAscocentrum miniatumwere more closely related to each other than to the terete-leavedVandaspecies studied. RAPD analysis supports the suggestion that terete-leavedVanda teresandVanda hookerianabe classified in the separate genusPapilionantheand thatVanda sanderianashould remain in the genusVanda.Copyright 1999 Annals of Botany Company.

Vanda, terete-leaved, strap-leaved,Euanthe sanderiana, Ascocentrum miniatum,RAPD.
