Development and characterization of microsatellite loci in Megalonibea fusca

Authors: Z.B. Li, Q.H. Li, Y.F. Ning, J.B. Shangguan, G. Dai, L.N. Chen, Y.Y. Cao and X.J. Chen

Megalonibea fusca is a commercially important large edible fish. In this study, the first set of 10 polymorphic microsatellite loci for M. fusca was developed and characterized. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to five, with the observed and expected heterozygosities ranging from 0.0667 to 0.7667, and from 0.0644 to 0.5828, respectively. Mo.. Read More»

Selection of an effective microsatellite marker system for genetic control and analysis of gerbil populations in China

Authors: X.Y. Du, W. Li, X.Y. Sa, C.L. Li, J. Lu, Y.Z. Wang and Z.W. Chen

Although gerbils have been widely used in many areas of biological research over many years, there is currently no effective genetic quality control system available. In the present study, we sought to establish a microsatellite marker system for quality control and conducted an optimized analysis of 137 microsatellite loci in two laboratory gerbil popula..

Microsatellite analysis as a tool for discriminating an interfamily hybrid between olive flounder and starry flounder

Authors: J.-H. Kang, Y.-K. Kim, J.-Y. Park, C.-M. An, M.-M. Nam, S.G. Byun, B.I. Lee, J.H. Lee and T.-J. Choi

An interspecific artificial hybrid was produced between two economically important aquaculture flatfish: olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) and starry flounder (P. stellatus). This hybrid displays the rapid growth characteristic of the former and tolerance to low temperatures and low salinity of the latter, but the geneti.. Read More»

Genetic evidence for panmixia of Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) populations in China

Authors: X.L. Gong, S.J. Ren, Z.K. Cui and L.J. Yue

The Japanese eel population has dramatically declined since the 1970s. In order to conserve this species, the background genetic structure affecting these populations should be well documented. Previous genetic studies of this species have produced seemingly conflicting results, ranging from no detectable heterogeneity to smal.. Read More»

Isolation and characterization of microsatellite markers for Axonopus compressus (Sw.) Beauv. (Poaceae) using 454 sequencing technology

Authors: X.-L. Wang, Y. Li, L. Liao, C.-J. Bai and Z.-Y. Wang

Axonopus compressus (Sw.) Beauv. is a perennial herb widely used as a garden lawn grass. In this study, we used Roche 454 pyrosequencing, combined with the magnetic bead enrichment method FIASCO, to isolate simple sequence repeat markers from the A. compressus genome. A total of 1942 microsatellite loci were identified, with 53,193 raw sequencing reads. O.. Read More»

Population genetics of the Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) in Korea inferred from microsatellite marker analysis

Authors: H.S. An J.W. Lee J.Y. Park

Populations of the Pacific abalone, Haliotis discus hannai, have been severely overexploited over the past few decades in Korea. Information regarding the levels of genetic variability and structure within populations is insufficient for the development of effective strategies for conservation of genetic diversity of this species. To assess the genetic statu.. Read More»

Analysis of the role of hMLH1 hypermethylation and microsatellite instability in meningioma progression

Authors: M.N. Chen P. Wang J. Zhang B.Y. Zhou Q. Mao Y.H. Liu

We investigated a possible role of hMLH1 hypermethylation and microsatellite instability in meningioma progression. Fifty meningomas were examined for methylation of hMLH1 using a methylation-specific PCR; 43 of them were analyzed for microsatellite instability using nine microsatellite markers. Loss of heterozygosity on chrom.. Read More»

Isolation and characterization of 24 polymorphic microsatellite loci in Sepioteuthis lessoniana

Authors: X.-D. Zheng Z.-R. Zuo X.-J. Su Q. Li

Owing to their codominant, multiallelic, and highly polymorphic nature, microsatellite markers have been used widely in population genetics and biological resource conservation studies. To investigate the genetic structure of Sepioteuthis lessoniana, we developed 24 microsatellite DNA markers and assessed the polymorphism of each locus in a wild S. lessonian.. Read More»

Development and characterization of DNA microsatellite primers for buriti (Mauritia flexuosa L.f.)Development and characterization of DNA microsatellite primers for buriti (Mauritia flexuosa L.f.)

Authors: Development and characterization of DNA microsatellite primers for buriti (Mauritia flexuosa L.f.)

Mauritia flexuosa L. (Arecaceae) is a palm tree species known as buriti that occurs in the Cerrado biome. It is characteristic of the vereda, a typical ecosystem of central Brazil. In this phytophysiognomy, M. flexuosa and other groups of arboreal-herbaceous species develop in open fields with very humid soils. M. flexuosa can be found in forest borders a.. Read More»
