Abstract: Genetic diven;ity of 20 maize landraces was analyzed with 28 SSR markers. 124 alleles in all were cletectedand the averse number of alleles was 4. 43. 2- 9 polymorphic fragments eramplified staldy by each SSR marker. Ge-netic dissimilarity coefficients ranged from 0. 56 to 0. 85. These maize germplasms could he clustered into 3 groups. The10 maize landraces from Shanxi Province were clustered into one group. Hvever, the other 10 maize landraces fromHenan provin cerwere detected in 3 groups, slxwing a high genetic diversity. The result indicated that these maize larrdraces could he conserved selectively and used in maize improvement.
