The polymorphism, similarities and relationships among Nicotiana tabacum L. cultivars were assessed with RAPD analyses. One hundred and forty-nine bands were detected, of which 94 were polymorphic (63.1 %). A primer distinguishing all of the tested cultivars was found. High similarity between cultivars was revealed, and cultivar relationships were estimated through cluster analysis (UPGMA) based on RAPD data.
