Genetic diversity of a native population of Myrcia ovata (Myrtaceae) using ISSR molecular markers

Myrcia ovata Cambess. (Myrtaceae) is a medicinal and aromatic plant that has analgesic, bactericidal and fungicidal properties. Even though this plant has economic potential, nothing is known about the variability and genetic diversity of this species. This information is necessary to establish conservation strategies and allow prospection of natural resources. The .. Read More»

Varronia curassavica Jacq. is a medicinal and aromatic plant from Brazil with significant economic importance. Studies on genetic diversity in active germplasm banks (AGB) are essential for conservation and breeding programs. The aim of this study was to analyze the genetic diversity of V. curassavica accessions of the AGB of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants of the Federal University of Sergipe (U.. Read More»

atchouli [Pogostemon cablin (Blanco) Benth.] is an aromatic, herbaceous plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family native to Southeast Asia. Its leaves produce an essential oil regularly used by the perfume and cosmetics industries. However, since patchouli from the Philippines and India were described and named Pogostemon patchouli, there has been a divergence in the identity of these species. Th.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of native populations of Croton tetradenius Baill. using ISSR markers

    C.S. Almeida-Pereira, A.V.C. Silva, R.P. Alves, R.B. Feitosa-Alcantara, M.F. Arrigoni-Blank, S.V. Alvares-Carvalho, T.S. Costa, L.A.S. White, V.S. Pinto, T.S. Sampaio and A.F. Blank

Brazil has about 300 Croton species in different types of vegetation. Croton tetradenius Baill., which is endemic to the Northeast region and predominant in the Caatinga vegetation, stands out among the several species of this genus. Considering the importance of knowing the genetic variability of a species, the objective of this study was to analyze the genetic div.. Read More»

Genetic variability in Jatropha curcas L. from diallel crossing

Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) presents high oilseed yield and low production cost. However, technical-scientific knowledge on this crop is still limited. This study aimed to evaluate and estimate the genetic variability of hybrids obtained from dialell crossing. Genetic variability was carried out using ISSR molecular markers. For genetic variability, nine primers.. Read More»

Analysis of genetic diversity of Hyptis pectinata (L.) Poit. plants using ISSR markers

Hyptis pectinata, popularly known as ‘sambacaitá’ or ‘canudinho’, is a medicinal and aromatic species widely used in the Brazilian Northeast. In Sergipe, the excessive extraction of natural resources may reduce the genetic variability of native plants. Thus, molecular markers have frequently been applied to the characterization of gene..
