Genetic diversity analysis of nine varieties of wheat (Triticum aestivum) was evaluated using 14 SSR markers. A genetic relationship was studied by calculating the genetic distances using an un-weighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) subprogram of NTSYS-PC software. The cluster analysis shows that the most closely related varieties were V6 (GW1255) and V9 (GW366); V4 (GW11) and V8 (GW273), V1 (GW503) and V3 (GW451) respectively. V7 (GW173) and V3 (GW451) were the most distinct varieties among all the 9 varieties analyzed in this study. The cluster analysis results were further verified by calculation of the significance and correlation using Pearson correlation analysis. From the results, it was concluded that evaluation of genetic diversity and identification of wheat varieties by the Marker Assisted Selection technology is easy and early approach compared to conventional breeding approaches.
