Characterization of Capsicum species using anatomical and molecular data
Authors: G.B. Dias, V.M. Gomes, T.M.S. Moraes, U.P. Zottich, G.R. Rabelo, A.O. Carvalho, M. Moulin, L.S.A. Gon�§alves, R. Rodrigues and M. Da Cunha
Capsicum species are frequently described in terms of genetic divergence, considering morphological, agronomic, and molecular databases. However, descriptions of genetic differences based on anatomical characters are rare. We examined the anatomy and the micromorphology of vegetative and reproductive organs of several Capsicum species. Four Capsicum acces.. Read More»

Molecular characterization of accessions of Cratylia argentea (Camaratuba) using ISSR markers
Authors: G.A. Luz, S.O. Gomes, R.B. Araujo Neto, M.S.C.B. Nascimento and P.S.C. Lima
Cratylia argentea (Desv.) Kuntze (Fabaceae) is a drought-tolerant, perennial legume found primarily in Brazil, Bolivia, and Peru. The shrub is well adapted to acid soils and exhibits high productivity and nutritional value, characteristics that would favor its use as a dry season animal forage supplement in semiarid r..

Genetic diversity of Cajazeira (Spondias mombin L.) in three geographic regions
Authors: B.M. Silva, A.A.B. Rossi, A.V. Tiago, K.F.M. Schmitt, J.F.E. Dardengo and S.A.M. Souza
Cajazeira (Spondias mombin L.), of the family Anacardiaceae, is a species of fruit tree found in the Amazon region with fruits that have excellent prospects for commercial use. We aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity within and among natural populations of S. mombin, with natural occurrence in northern Mato Grosso State, by.. Read More»

Genetic dissimilarity of putative gamma-ray-induced �Preciosa - AAAB-Pome type� banana (Musa sp) mutants based on multivariate statistical analysis
Authors: R.K.N. Pestana, E.P. Amorim, C.F. Ferreira, V.B.O. Amorim, L.S. Oliveira, C.A.S. Ledo and S.O. Silva
Bananas are among the most important fruit crops worldwide, being cultivated in more than 120 countries, mainly by small-scale producers. However, short-stature high-yielding bananas presenting good agronomic characteristics are hard to find. Consequently, wind continues to damage a great number of plantations each year, leadi..

Characterization of maize genotypes for genetic diversity on the basis of inter simple sequence repeats
Authors: R.W. Muhammad, A. Qayyum, M.Q. Ahmad, A. Hamza, M. Yousaf, B. Ahmad, M. Younas, W. Malik, S. Liaqat, E. Noor
Genetic diversity in crops is essential to make improvements related to superior germplasms. Implementation of molecular markers to identify suitable genotypes speeds up the breeding progress by enhancing selection efficiency. This study was carried out to probe genetic diversity among 21 maize genotypes using 20 inter simple .. Read More»

RAPD and ISSR markers in the evaluation of genetic divergence among accessions of elephant grass
Authors: R.S.N de Lima, R.F. Daher, L.S.A. Gon�§alves, D.A. Rossi, A.T. do Amaral J�ºnior, M.G. Pereira and F.J.S. L�©do
Considering the expected genetic variability of elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum), due to its cultivation in different continents, we characterized and estimated the genetic divergences between 46 accessions of elephant grass with different edaphoclimatic adaptations, using RAPD and ISSR markers. We evaluated, comparativel.. Read More»

Genetic variability and diversity of the main resources of lily assessed via phenotypic characters, pollen morphology, and ISSR markers
Authors: J.M. Wang, S.L.Y. Ma, W.Q. Li, Q. Wang, H.Y. Cao, J.H. Gu and Y.M. Lu
Lily (Lilium spp), which belongs to Lilium, is one kind of monocotyledon. As a perennial ornamental plant with extremely high esthetic, edible, and medicinal value, lily has gained much favor due to its mostly showy flowers of various colors and elegant shape. In this research, we studied experimental materials in a sample of .. Read More»
