Abstract
Salinity is an important limiting factor in the production of more plants, including rice. Due to the limited amount of cultivated area, identification of tolerant genotypes to environmental stresses and especially salinity is very important. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic diversity among 114 recombinant lines derived from the intersection of local Tarom × Khazar cultivars under non stress conditions and salinity levels of 8 dS/m in reproductive stage in a completely randomized design. Combined analysis of variance showed that the differences between lines was significant for all traits. Genotypic variation coefficients also showed that the highest genetic variation among the evaluated recombinant lines was related to the number of panicles per plant. In contrast, days to 50% flowering showed the least genetic variation among these lines. In non stress and stress conditions, the highest genotypic and phenotypic correlation coefficient was observed between grain yield and number of fill grain in seedlings. Based on the cluster analysis of grain yield, the lines were classified into four groups under normal conditions and were classified into three groups under salinity conditions. The third-party lines in both cases had a higher average than the overall average. In general, the results of this study showed that there is a significant genetic variation between the studied lines in terms of salt tolerance and this variety can be used in subsequent corrective programs. Accordingly, lines 83, 81, 56, 39, 37 and 89 were the most sensitive lines and lines 107, 101, 16, 100, 84, 98, 47, 32, 14, 29, 95, 63, 5, 49, 92 and 10 were the most tolerant lines to salinity stresses of 8 dS/m and they also had higher yields and yield components. Strained lines are proposed directly for cultivating saline or for transferring salt tolerance to commercial cultivars through future breeding programs.

Abstract
Violet plants (Viola sp.) belonging to the Violaceae family are ornamental plants that could be used for drug design due to their cyclotidic compounds. In this study, 21 different ecotypes of violets were collected from the northern regions of Iran. After DNA extraction, the genetic diversity of ecotypes was investigated using the iPBS molecular marker. Twelve iPBS primers used during the present investigation resulted in 214 bands. The average percentage of observed polymorphism, polymorphic information content (PIC), and marker index (MI) were calculated to be 31.92%, 0.35%, and 5.64% respectively. The Nei genetic distance index ranged between 0 and 0.66. The results of this study indicated a considerable genetic diversity among the violet ecotypes and the efficiency of the iPBS marker in detecting polymorphism. The population genetic analysis showed that 61% of the diversity was associated with intra-species diversity. The species V. odorata and V. alba exhibited the greatest degrees of polymorphism, effective allele number, Shannon index value, and heterozygosity ratios. Also, the dendrogram depicted the close genetic relationship between these two species, as evidenced by Nei's genetic distance measurements. In general, considering the existing taxonomic information and the results obtained from this experiment, it can be concluded that the use of the iPBS marker was highly effective in systematic studies of the genus Viola. The results of this experiment led to the appropriate differentiation of ecotypes and species, which could be used in further breeding studies.
