Abstract :Several molecular markers have been developed to explore genetic diversity, resistance against biotic/abiotic stress, disease, biomarker and evolutionary relationships in different genomes. These markers could be classified as sequence, hybridisation, PCR and retrotransposon based techniques. In this study, procedure and applications of AFLP (Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism), ITS (Internal Transcribed Spacer), IRAP (Inter Retrotransposon Amplified Polymorphism), SSR (Simple Sequence Repeats), VNTR (Variable Number Tandem Repeats), SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism), CAPS (Cleaved Amplified Polymorphic Sequences), SCoT (Start Codon Targeted Polymorphism), SSCP (Single Strand Conformational Polymorphism) markers in plant, animal and human genomes were discussed.Keywords : AFLP, ITS, IRAP, SSR, VNTR, SNP, CAPS, SCoT, SSCP
