Abstract
Calamus travancoricus Bedd. ex Becc. is a dioecious rattan species of commercial importance used in the furniture and handicraft industry. In order to develop genetic improvement and restoration programmes, it is essential to identify sex at seedling stage. In the present study, we have identified molecular markers linked to sex determination using RAPD markers. Of the twenty random primers standardised, the primer OPAU 02 yielded a unique amplicon specific to female genotypes. It is feasible to identify sex at the early stages of plant life, which is beneficial for improving further breeding programs in C. travancoricus.
