Authors: M. Ben Mohamed, S. Zelasco, S. Ben Ali F. Guasmi, T. Triki, F. L. Conforti, G. Kamoun Naziha

Tunisia is one of the most important olive growing countries in the Mediterranean basin and it is classified in fourth rank on world scale in terms of olive oil production. Since the emergence of the modern oliviculture, the identification, the evaluation and conservation of the local genetic resources have been considered as .. 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 variability of Brazilian Indian landraces of Arachis hypogaea L.

Authors: F.O. Freitas, M.C. Moretzsohn, J.F.M. Valls

The Kayabi Indians who inhabit the Xingu Indigenous Park, located in West Central Brazil, have grown and managed peanuts for a long time. A great number of landraces are being maintained by these tribes and some of this germplasm has morphological traits that exceed the variation described in the taxonomic literature. Here, we..

Genetic relationships among Heliconia (Heliconiaceae) species based on RAPD markers

Authors: L.P. Marouelli, P.W. Inglis, M.A. Ferreira and G.S.C. Buso

The family Heliconiaceae contains a single genus, Heliconia, with approximately 180 species of Neotropical origin. This genus was formerly allocated to the family Musaceae, but today forms its own family, in the order Zingiberales. The combination of inverted flowers, a single staminode and drupe fruits is an exclusive charact.. Read More»

Genetic relationships among and within wild and cultivated olives based on RAPDs

Authors: M. Sesli and E.D. YeÃ?Â?enoÃ?Â?lu

We examined genetic relationships among wild and cultivated olives, which is a very important crop in the economy of the Aegean region. We used RAPD analysis to evaluate relationships among and within 22 olive subspecies from Manisa, Mugla and Izmir provinces in Turkey. Twelve of the subspecies were wild and 10 were cultivated..

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Cyclemys dentata and phylogenetic analysis of the major family Geoemydidae

Authors: Y.N. Huang, J. Li, Q.Y. Jiang, X.S. Shen, X.Y. Yan, Y.B. Tang, J. Huang, Y.F. Guo, G.Q. Lan and H.S. Jiang

In the present study, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genome of Cyclemys dentata was determined using PCR reactions. The structural organization and gene order of C. dentata were equivalent to those of most other vertebrates. The mt genome was 16,489 bp in length, has rich A+T content, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 22 trans.. Read More»

Molecular characterization and phylogenetic relationships among species of the genus Brycon (Characiformes: Characidae) from four hydrographic basins in Brazil

Authors: R.S.P. Antunes, V.N. Gomes, S.M.A.P. Prioli , R.A. Prioli, H.F. J�ºlio Jr., L.M. Prioli, C.S. Agostinho and A.J. Prioli

Brycon is one of the main genera of Neotropical freshwater fish. In Brazil, Brycon species have been found in many hydrographic basins, such as the Amazon, Paraná, Paraguay, and Araguaia-Tocantins basins. We examined the phylogenetic relationships among the species Brycon orbignyanus, B. hilarii, B. cf. pesu, B. cephalu.. Read More»

Association of SSR markers with contents of fatty acids in olive oil and genetic diversity analysis of an olive core collection

Authors: M. Ipek, A. Ipek, M. Seker and M.K. Gul

The purpose of this research was to characterize an olive core collection using some agronomic characters and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and to determine SSR markers associated with the content of fatty acids in olive oil. SSR marker analysis demonstrated the presence of a high amount of genetic variation between the olive cultivars analyzed. A UPG.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and molecular characterization of several Heliconia species in Colombia

Authors: L. Isaza M.L. Marulanda A.M. L�³pez

Researchers have classified the Heliconia genus as a group of highly variable and diverse plants. Species and cultivars are visually differentiated primarily on the basis of the color and size of inflorescence bracts. At taxonomic level, flower type (parabolic, sigmoid, or erect) and size are taken into account. The vast morphological diversity of helicon.. Read More»
