Genetic relationship between lodging and lodging components in barley (Hordeum vulgare) based on unconditional and conditional quantitative trait locus analyses

Authors: W.Y. Chen, Z.M. Liu, G.B. Deng1, Z.F. Pan, J.J. Liang, X.Q. Zeng, N.M. Tashi, H. Long and M.Q. Yu

Lodging (LD) is a major constraint limiting the yield and forage quality of barley. Detailed analyses of LD component (LDC) traits were conducted using 246 F2 plants generated from a cross between cultivars ZQ320 and 1277. Genetic relationships between LD and LDC were evaluated by unconditional and conditional quantitative tra.. Read More»

DNA barcoding and phylogenetic relationships in Timaliidae

Authors: Z.H. Huang and D.H. Ke

The Timaliidae, a diverse family of oscine passerine birds, has long been a subject of debate regarding its phylogeny. The mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene has been used as a powerful marker for identification and phylogenetic studies of animal species. In the present study, we analyzed the COI barcodes of 71 species from 21 genera .. Read More»

Genetic relationships of the Japanese persimmon Diospyros kaki (Ebenaceae) and related species revealed by SSR analysis

Authors: D.L. Guo and Z.R. Luo

Simple sequence repeat (SSR) molecular markers based on 18 primers were employed to study the genetic relationship of Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kaki) specimens. Two hundred and sixty-two bands were detected in 30 Japanese persimmon samples, including 14 Japanese and 10 Chinese genotypes of Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kak.. Read More»

Characterization and comparison of EST-SSR and TRAP markers for genetic analysis of the Japanese persimmon Diospyros kaki

Authors: C. Luo, F. Zhang, Q.L. Zhang, D.Y. Guo and Z.R. Luo

We developed and characterized expressed sequence tags (ESTs)-simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and targeted region amplified polymorphism (TRAP) markers to examine genetic relationships in the persimmon genus Diospyros gene pool. In total, we characterized 14 EST-SSR primer pairs and 36 TRAP primer combinations, which were amplified across 20 germplasms of .. Read More»

Assessing the genetic relationships of Curcuma alismatifolia varieties using simple sequence repeat markers

Authors: S. Taheri, T.L. Abdullah, N.A.P. Abdullah, Z. Ahmad, E. Karimi and M.R. Shabanimofrad

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 (SSRs) to elucidate genetic variation and relationships between five varieties of Curcuma (.. Read More»

Genetic background of Citrus nobilis Lour. �Gonggan� based on the chloroplast trnL gene

Authors: Y.-J. Guo, Q.-H. Ji, X.-Q. Zhou, Y.-P. Hu, L.-Y. Guo, H. Jiang and J.-W. Zeng

The genetic backgrounds of many Citrus varieties are quite complex. Classifications and phylogenetic relationships of Citrus species have become the focus of researchs. Some conserved genes of chloroplast genome’s research have been proven effective in determining the biosources of hybrids and phylogenetic analysis. Thus, we studied variations among.. Read More»

Genetic relationships between Lolium (Poaceae) species revealed by RAPD markers

Authors: X. Ma, X.-Y. Gu, T.-T. Chen, S.-Y. Chen, L.-K. Huang and X.-Q. Zhang

The genus Lolium is one of the most important groupings of temperate forage grasses, including about eight recognized species that are native to some temperate and subtropical regions of the northern hemisphere. We examined genetic relationships among 18 accessions representing all Lolium species using RAPD markers. Among 50 random primers that we screene.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and relationship of chicory (Cichorium intybus L.) using sequence-related amplified polymorphism markers

Authors: X.Y. Liang, X.Q. Zhang, S.Q. Bai, L.K. Huang, X.M. Luo, Y. Ji and L.F. Jiang

Chicory is a crop with economically important roles and is cultivated worldwide. The genetic diversity and relationship of 80 accessions of chicories and endives were evaluated by sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers to provide a theoretical basis for future breeding programs in China. The polymorphic rate wa.. Read More»

Application of DNA barcoding markers to the identification of Hopea species

Authors: Nguyen T.P. Trang, N.M. Duc, N.V. Sinh and L. Triest

Hopea chinensis (synonym: H. hongayensis) (Dipterocarpaceae) is a threatened species found so far in only two locations: Quang Ninh (Vietnam) and Guangxi (China). The species shares many morphological characteristics with H. mollissima and the two species are often confused. To overcome this problem of identification and to investigate the genetic relatio..

tRNALeu intron (UAA) of Ficus carica L.: genetic diversity and evolutionary patterns

Authors: G. Baraket,A.B. Abdelkrim and A. Salhi-Hannachi

Cytoplasmic chloroplast DNA was explored to establish genetic relationships among Ficus carica cultivars and elucidate the molecular evolution of the species. The results suggest the occurrence of haplotype and nucleotide diversity. Conserved group I intron sequence motifs were detected and showed a common secondary structure, despite the presence of some.. Read More»
