Abstract


Celtis australis L. and Celtis occidentalis L. are deciduous ornamental trees, grown in
Egypt. This study presents a comparative investigation of the botanical features of the stems, stem
barks and leaves of both plants. Furthermore, the DNA of both plants was extracted from leaf samples
and analyzed using 10 decamer random primers. A total of 159 random amplified polymorphic
DNA (RAPD) markers were identified. Seed protein profiling was also performed and revealed low
variation in both plants’ SDS–PAGE profiles.
