Genetic diversity and population structure of ancient Platycladus orientalis (Cupressaceae) in the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor revealed by SSR

Authors: Yao Xu1, Jiantao Zhao, Sheng Zhang, Zhong Zhao

Ancient trees can serve as genetic reservoirs for special genes, and they are of significance in genetic applications dealing with forest fragmentation, climate change and drought. The Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor in Shaanxi China has the largest number of ancient Platycladus orientalis trees. Here, Simple sequence repeat (SSR) technique was used to st.. Read More»

Genetic relationship among Labisia pumila (Myrsinaceae) species based on ISSR-PCR

Authors: E. Karimi, H.Z.E. Jaafar, M.A. Aziz, S. Taheri and R. AzadiGonbad

The genus Labisia (Myrsinaceae) is a popular medicinal plant in Malaysia. We examined the genetic relationship among three varieties of L. pumila var. pumila, L. pumila var. alata, L. pumila var. lanceolata and Labisia paucifolia using an ISSR assay. Fifty-eight primers were tested, among which 18 gave reliable polymorphic ban.. Read More»

Molecular phylogenetic relationships among members of the family Phytolaccaceae sensu lato inferred from internal transcribed spacer sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA

Authors: J. Lee, S.Y. Kim, S.H. Park and M.A. Ali

The phylogeny of a phylogenetically poorly known family, Phytolaccaceae sensu lato (s.l.), was constructed for resolving conflicts concerning taxonomic delimitations. Cladistic analyses were made based on 44 sequences of the internal transcribed spacer of nuclear ribosomal DNA from 11 families (Aizoaceae, Basellaceae, Didiereaceae, Molluginaceae, Nyctagin..

Genetic diversity and relationships among accessions of five crested wheatgrass species (Poaceae: Agropyron) based on gliadin analysis

Authors: S.Y. Chen, X. Ma, X.Q. Zhang, L.K. Huang and J.N. Zhou

Agropyron Gaertn. is the most important genus in Triticeae (Poaceae), which includes many forage grasses with high economic value. The genetic diversity and relationships of 36 accessions from five crested wheatgrass species were analyzed by gliadin markers. A total of 54 product bands were detected after acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE), .. Read More»

Genetic diversity and population structure of Chinese pony breeds using microsatellite markers

Authors: L.X. Xu, S.L. Yang, R.Y. Lin, H.B. Yang, A.P. Li and Q.S. Wan

China is one of the principal origins of ponies in the world. We made a comprehensive analysis of genetic diversity and population structure of Chinese ponies based on 174 animals of five indigenous Chinese pony breeds from five provinces using 13 microsatellite markers. One hundred and forty-four alleles were detected; the mean number of effective allele.. Read More»

Genetic relationships among five varieties of Curcuma alismatifolia (Zingiberaceae) based on ISSR markers

Authors: S. Taheri T.L. Abdullah N.A.P. Abdullah Z. Ahmad

The genus Curcuma is a member of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae) that has recently become popular for use as flowering pot plants, both indoors and as patio and landscape plants. We used PCR-based molecular markers (ISSRs) to assess genetic variation and relationships between five varieties of curcuma (Curcuma alismatifolia) cultivated in Malaysia. Sixteen.. Read More»

Genetic relationships in a germplasm collection of Camellia japonica and Camellia oleifera using SSR analysis

Authors: Y. Zhao, C.J. Ruan, G.J. Ding and S. Mopper

Camellia japonica produces different color and bigger flowers, widely being used for gardening green in southern China. However, cultivars were introduced from different regions, but their origin and pedigree information is either not available poorly documented, causing problems in authentication. Many low-yield trees in Came.. Read More»
