Genetic purity, as one of the important characteristics of the quality of seed lots, has been considered in the national standards of certified seed producing countries to achieve desirable and stable characteristics of agricultural cultivars. According to the national standard, determining the other speciese in the seed sample is considered as one of the important tests of seed quality. This feature is checked with an emphasis on recognizable characteristics in the seed analysis laboratory. The research has investigated the characteristics and differences in appearance and genetics of seeds off- type of chickpea seeds. The results showed that the seeds that were considered as off- type morphologically differed from the control in at least one of the measured traits. These seeds were different from the original seed in terms of color, shape seed surface roughness and seed groove, also the selected indices were similar in the first and second generation seeds. The results of the molecular test also confirmed the results of the morphological investigations. In Adel, Mansour, Arman cultivars, the samples that in morphological studies were considered as off-type, in molecular studies using microsatellite markers H3F09, H3C11 and H1A06 showed that the molecular profile was not uniform and allele diversity was greater than the main allele of cultivars. In the process of seed certification program, microsatellite markers are a suitable and complementary tool to the use of morphological markers to determine the genetic purity of chickpea seed samples.

In the national standard for canola seed production, wild mustard is considered an illegal weed. Although canola and wild mustard can be distinguished by the morphological traits, it is not possible to distinguish the seeds of two species, especially the coated seeds. The present study was conducted to optimize the identification and detection of wild mustard seeds in rapeseed lots by morphological, chemical and molecular methods. The other seed count test was performed according to the rules of international seed test in rapeseed sampling. Chemical test design was performed under KOH treatment. The results of the chemical test were presented in five different status. Three specific markers of DA, DC and 5S rDNA were used, respectively. The Cruc marker is thought to be an internal control. Multiple polymerase chain reaction show amplification patterns of wild-mustard seed-specific markers with 5S rDNA amplified 190 bp that did not amplify in canola seeds. DA and DC markers in canola seeds amplified 239 and 625 bp, respectively, which did not amplify in wild mustard. According to molecular specific Profile and comparison with different status of rapeseed. Morphological limitation features and similarity of expression states of seed-related traits in wild mustard and rapeseed and factors such as seed coverage and chemical treatment restriction of wild mustard from rapeseed masses according International seed testing will not be possible, in which case DNA-based molecular tools will provide reliable results.
