Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RDNA) analysis was used to detect the genetic diversity of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) varieties and field bean (Glycine xoza Sieb. and Zucc.) Five soybean varieties and one field bean were analysed with random primers using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Nine primers of a total twenty random primer were selected to amplify DNA segments. A total of 74 PCR products were amplified and 67.6% of which were polymorphic. The size of DNA molecule is ranged 0.13~2.0Kb and typically generated four to eight major bands. Specific genetic marker were revealed in primer sequence 5'-CAG GCC CTT C-3', 5'-TGC TCT GCC C-3' and 5'-GTC CAC ACG G-3', respectively. Genetic similarity between each of the varieties were calculated from the pair-wise comparisons of amplification products and a dendrogram was constructed by an unweighted pair-group method with arithmethical means (UPGMA). The results indicate that intervarietal relationships of soybean have a narrow genetic base and between the varieties, Hwanggum-kong and Seckryang-bootkong is more closely related than the rest of varieties, and field bean is related quite distant.
