Abstract
The importance of involving genetic diversity in breeding has been emphasized for the sustainable and stable utilization of crop genetic resources and preparation for unpredictable future environments. The black raspberry fruit from the genus Rubus is highly consumed owing its flavor and health benefits, but the genetic basis of its cultivars is very limited with insufficient genetic information available. Therefore, breeding programs must focus on the exploitation of genetic diversity of wild crop relatives. We assessed the genetic diversity, population differentiation, and genetic structure of 11 wild relatives of R. coreanus Miq. using 10 microsatellite markers to collect valuable genetic information and propose enhanced strategies for development of breeding populations. The observed and expected heterozygosity were 0.493 and 0.520, respectively. Genetic differentiation among the populations was 0.109. The Mantel test confirmed that wild R. coreanus populations differentiated following isolation by distance. Moreover, Bayesian clustering analysis showed that R. coreanus populations consisted of three genetic clusters, distribution of those showed a geographical tendency. Based on the genetic diversity, private allele frequency, and genetic structure results, we suggest to preferentially include the Chiak, Hamyang, and Jeju populations for construction of a breeding population of the Korean black raspberry.

Horticulture, Environment, and Biotechnology (HEB) is the official journal of the Korean Society for Horticultural Science, was launched in 1965 as the "Journal of Korean Society for Horticultural Science".
HEB is an international journal, published in English, bimonthly on the last day of even number months, and indexed in Biosys Preview, SCIE, and CABI.
The journal is devoted for the publication of original research papers and review articles related to vegetables, fruits, ornamental and herbal plants, and covers all aspects of physiology, molecular biology, biotechnology, protected cultivation, postharvest technology, and research in plants related to environment.
