Genetic diversity and population structure: implications for conservation of wild soybean (Glycine soja Sieb. et Zucc) based on nuclear and chloroplast microsatellite variation.

Wild soybean showed a relatively high population diversity ( H E = 0.426), which is similar to the result from previous studies [ 31 , 32 ], Considering life form and breeding system have a highly significant influence on genetic diversity [ 33 ], we compared genetic diversity of wild soybean with other predominantly self-pollinated wild species, such as wild emmer ( Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides ) ( H E = 0.19) [ 34 ], wild barley ( Hordeum spontaneum ) ( H E = 0.138) [ 35 ], and officinal wild rice ( Oryza officinalis ) ( H E = 0.22) [ 36 ].
