Genetic diversity of natural populations of Machilus thunbergii, an endangered tree species in eastern China, determined with ISSR analysis

Authors: J. Liu, H.G. Sun, J.M. Jiang, W.H. Shao and Q.F. Luan

The genetic diversity of 10 Machilus thunbergii populations in eastern China was analyzed using inter-simple sequence repeat markers. The populations showed high genetic diversity, with an overall population genetic diversity of 0.2343. Genetic diversity varied largely among populations, and populations with the highest genetic diversity were mainly from .. Read More»

Genetic diversity of Broussonetia papyrifera populations in southwest China

Authors: S.X. Liao, Z.H. Deng, K. Cui, Y.Z. Cui and C.H. Zhang

Broussonetia papyrifera is an important native tree species with high economic value in southwest China. Its resources are drastically reduced because of over-harvesting and habitat fragmentation. In this study, 17 natural populations of B. papyrifera were analyzed using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) ma.. Read More»

Biogeographic pattern of genetic diversity detected by RAPD and ISSR analysis in Gypsophila (Caryophyllaceae) species from Turkey

Authors: M. Korkmaz and N.Y. Dogan

Gypsophila L. is the 3rd-largest genus of Caryophyllaceae in Turkey, a country that includes 60 taxa belonging to 56 species of the 126 recognized in the genus. A total of 35 taxa are endemic to Turkey, with an approximately 60% endemism ratio. In this study, the genetic diversity of 14 Gypsophila species from Turkey was analyzed using random amplificatio..

Phenotypic and genotypic variation among Capsicum annuum recombinant inbred lines resistant to bacterial spot

Authors: S.O. Moreira, R. Rodrigues, H.S. Oliveira, A.M. Medeiros, C.P. Sudr?© and L.S.A. Gon?§alves

A breeding program carried out under Brazilian growing conditions to obtain Capsicum annuum cultivars with disease resistance to bacterial spot (BS) produced 8 promising recombinant inbred lines (RILs). The present study aimed to characterize these RILs using phenotypic descriptors and molecular markers (inter-simple sequence repeat) and to confirm their .. Read More»

Molecular diversity analysis of eggplant (Solanum melongena) genetic resources

Authors: Z. Ali, Z.L. Xu, D.Y. Zhang, X.L. He, S. Bahadur and J.X. Yi

Eggplant (Solanum melongena), a vegetable that is cultivated worldwide, is of considerable importance to agriculture in China. We analyzed the diversity of this plant using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and RAPD procedures to subdivide 143 Chinese-cultivated eggplants based on coefficient of parentage, genetic diversity ..

Analysis of genetic diversity of Laeliinae (Orchidaceae) in the State of Sergipe using ISSR markers

Authors: M.F. Arrigoni-Blank, M.S. Santos, A.F. Blank, A.R.C. Rabbani, R. Silva-Mann, J.B. Santos, A.S. Costa and T.S.A. Menezes

The Orchidaceae represent one of the largest and most diverse families on the planet. However, this family is constantly threatened by predators and by the advancement of urban centers over its natural habitats. The objective of this study was to use inter-simple sequence repeat markers to evaluate the genetic diversity betwee.. Read More»

Genetic and morphological diversity of Moenkhausia oligolepis (Characiformes: Characidae) populations in the tributaries of the Araguaia River, Brazil: implications for taxonomy and conservation

Authors: T.J. Domingos, L.N. Moraes, R.M. Moresco, V.P. Margarido and P.C. Venere

Molecular genetic assessments that consider ecological information, in addition to endogamy levels, genetic diversity, and the genetic differentiation among species and populations, are particularly important for the conservation of biological diversity. Prime candidates for conservation genetic review are those subject to hum.. Read More»
