• Genetic diversity and relationship of three collections of walnut genetic resources, which are geographically located in Eastern Europe (Moscow, Crimea, and Kuban regions) was studied. • 12 SSR-markers were used for genotyping of 119 Russian walnut accessions along with 22 walnut varieties from several region of the world. • The level of polymorphism in the Russian subset of walnut genotypes was characterized as relatively high compared to the worldwide walnut germplasm . • The analysis of gen
