Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz. is an oilseed crop which is native to Mediterranean and Central Asia. In the recent years, the Camelina oil became popular worldwide for human consumption, Omega-3 fatty acid content and possibility of the use as biodiesel fuel. The fact that it grows naturally in flora of Turkey, its competition power with the other plants in the growing field and the possibility of its cultivation without high amounts of nutrients make it as an alternative oil plant. Molecular characterizations of single plant, which was selected from thirty four Camelina accessions obtained from the US Gene Bank and from the Central Research Institute of Field Crops in Turkey, were used in this study. These seedlings were tested with seventy-three universal ISSR markers. Then eleven markers, which were highly polymorphic, were selected for characterization. According to characterization results, statistical analyses were performed in NTSYS-PC. Hence, genetic relationship between genotypes was shown on dendrogram which will be used in breeding purpose.
