Genetic Characterization
Molecular insights of mitochondrial 16S rDNA genes of the native honey bees subspecies Apis mellifera carnica and Apis mellifera jementica (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Reem Alajmi, Rewaida Abdel-Gaber, Loloa Alfozana
The honey bee Apis mellifera is of major importance for the world’s agriculture and is also suitable for environmental monitoring. It includes several recognized subspecies distinguished by using morphological and morphometric variants. Here, 200 adult worker Apis mellifera honey bees were collected from Hail region, Saudi Arabia. Mitochondrial 16S .. Read More»

Genetic diversity assessment of Allium cepa L. cultivars from Bosnia and Herzegovina using SSR makers
Authors: Lutvija Kari??, Maryam Golzardi, Petar Glamo?lija, Jasmin ? utkovi??
The five most common cultivars from the genus Allium cepa L. in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) were analysed, focusing on Konjic onion. Seven SSR markers for genetic similarity analysis were used to address the genetic backgrounds. The polymorphic relationship between the SSR markers was analyzed by using Polymorphic Informatio..

Genetic characterization of Red Junglefowl (Gallus gallus), Thai indigenous chicken (Gallus domesticus), and two commercial lines using selective functional genes compared to microsatellite markers
Authors: P. Akaboot, M. Duangjinda, Y. Phasuk, C. Kaenchan and W. Chinchiyanond
Genetic characterization among Red Junglefowl (GS, Gallus gallus spadiceus), Thai indigenous chicken (TIC, Gallus domesticus) and commercial lines has been widely used for studies of genealogical origin, genetic diversity, and effects of selection. We compared the efficiency of genetic characterization of chicken populations t.. Read More»

Genetic characterization of green bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) genotypes from eastern Turkey
Authors: G. Sar?±kam?±??1, F. Ya??ar2, M. Bak?±r3, K. Kazan4 and A. Erg?¼l3
Green bean genotypes collected from eastern Turkey were characterized using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and morphological traits. Among 12 SSR markers, 10 produced successful amplifications and revealed DNA polymorphisms that were subsequently used to assess genetic relatedness of the genotypes. Based on the number of alleles generated and the pr.. Read More»

Genetic characterization of heat tolerant tomato (Solanum lycopersicon) genotypes by SRAP and RAPD markers
Authors: N. Comlekcioglu, O. Simsek, M. Boncuk and Y. Aka-Kacar
We employed RAPD and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers to evaluate polymorphisms in 15 tomato (Solanum lycopersicon) genotypes that were obtained from a tomato breeding program. Four local tomato genotypes selected from the Sanliurfa province (Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey), 10 heat-tolerant tomat.. Read More»

Genetic characterization of European-Zebu composite bovine using RFLP markers
Authors: Erica Perez Marson, Jos?© Bento Sterman Ferraz, Fl?¡vio Vieira Meirelles, J?ºlio C?©sar de Carvalho Balieiro, Joanir Pereira Eler, Lu?s Gustavo Girardi Figueiredo and Gerson Barreto Mour?£o
A population of 370 European-Zebu composite beef heifers, consisting of six different breed compositions (A-F), were characterized genetically, using RFLP markers of luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) and follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) genes. Our objectives were to genetically characterize this population and to .. Read More»

Development and significance of SCAR marker QG12-5 for Canarium album (Lour.) Raeusch by molecular cloning from improved RAPD amplification
Authors: J.L. Cheng, Z.C. Yin Z.Q. Mei, C.L. Wei, H.C. Chen, X.S. Wu and J.J. Fu
Sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) is a valuable molecular marker for the genetic identification of any species.This marker is mainly derived from molecular cloning of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). We have previously reported the use of an improved RAPD technique for the genetic characterization of different samples of Canarium albu.. Read More»

Genetic characterization of pea (Pisum sativum) germplasm from Turkey using morphological and SSR markers
Authors: G. Sar?±kam?±??, R. Yanmaz, S. Ermi??, M. Bak?±r and C. Y?¼ksel
The need for the conservation of plant genetic resources has been widely accepted. Germplasm characterization and evaluation yield information for more efficient utilization of these valuable resources. The aim of the present study was to characterize the pea germplasm conserved at the Aegean Agricultural Research Institute of.. Read More»
