Mangrove (Avicennia marina) in south Sinai is the most prevailing vegetation. In some sites, it is completely terrestrial and totally lost their pneumatophores (aerial roots) and formed high terrestrial dune on the coastal marsh (Sabkha). Thus, the population of the seaside (intertidal) mangroves and the landside (terrestrial) mangrove were investigated to examine the potential genetic variation related to these phenotypic changes. Mangrove was screened in 6 populations collected from 2 sites in Nabq protectorate (Abo Zabad and Rowasisa). Genetic variations were examined by RAPD analysis to explore the genetic diversity among mangrove population of the landside (terrestrial) and seaside (intertidal) areas, and results of the RAPD analysis were supported by DNA sequencing and analysis. DNA sequencing identified all tested samples as A. marina, and RAPD banding pattern revealed significant genetic diversity among all tested mangrove populations by 68.33% of polymorphic band. Genetic differences were revealed between the populations of the terrestrial mangrove and intertidal mangroves in each site. These finding suggest that mangroves have moved landward up to 500 meters on land with the effect of wind and erosion, and the genetic variations supported mangrove for a gradual environmental adaptation to the terrestrial land topography, and totally lost their pneumatophores (aerial roots). © 2018 Friends Science Publishers
