Comparison of RAPD and ISSR markers for assessment of genetic diversity among endangered rare Dalbergia oliveri (Fabaceae) genotypes in Vietnam

Authors: D.T. Phong, V.T.T. Hien, T.T.V. Thanh and D.V. Tang

Dalbergia oliveri is a leguminous tree of the Fabaceae family. This species is popular and valuable in Vietnam and is currently listed on the Vietnam Red List and on the IUCN Red List as endangered. Two PCR techniques using RAPD and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to make a comparative analysis of genetic.. Read More»

Authors: R. Domingues, M.A. Machado, R.C. Forzza, T.D. Melo, S. Wohlres-Viana and L.F. Viccini

Pitcairnia albiflos is a Bromeliaceae species endemic to Brazil that has been included as data-deficient in the extinction risk list of Brazilian flora. We analyzed genetic variability in P. albiflos populations using RAPD markers to investigate population structure and reproductive mechanisms and also to evaluate the actual e.. Read More»

Two genetic stocks of Steindachneridion melanodermatum living in sympatry in nature and genetic variability of wild parents and F1 generation

Authors: D.A. Matoso, M. da Silva, M.C.S. Cortinhas, M.M. Cestari, M.C. de Almeida, M.R. Vicari and R.F. Artoni

Steindachneridion melanodermatum is a large Brazilian catfish, highly prized for sport fishing and for its meat. Specimens of this species, both caught in nature from Iguacu River and F1 fish born in captivity, were analyzed with regard to patterns of RAPD molecular markers. Genetic similarity ranged from 0.57 to 0.95; two gro.. Read More»

Genetic variation among quince(Cydonia oblonga Mill.) genotypes sampled from the Coruh valley in Turkey

Authors: E. Orhan G. Nardemir, G. Agarand S. Ercisli

Turkey has very rich quince genetic resources, and the country currently dominates world quince production. In particular, the northeastern part of the country has notable Cydonia oblonga Mill. germplasm. Authenticating the identity of germplasm resources of C. oblonga Mill. would be of great value for breeding practices. In t.. Read More»

Molecular characterization of the pathogenic plant fungus Rhizoctonia solani (Ceratobasidiaceae) isolated from Egypt based on protein and PCR-RAPD profiles

Authors: M.A. Mahmoud S.A. Al-Sohaibani A.M.M. Abdelbacki M.R. Al-Othman A.R.M. Abd El- Aziz K.K. Kasem M.S. Mikhail K.K. Sabet M.R. Omar E.M. Hussein

Twenty-one isolates of Rhizoctonia solani were categorized into three anastomosis groups consisting of AG-4-HG-I (eight isolates), AG-2-2 (nine isolates) and AG-5 (four isolates). Their pathogenic capacities were tested on cotton cultivar Giza 86. Pre-emergence damping-off varied in response to the different isolates; however, the differences were not signif.. Read More»

Analysis of Antarctic proteobacteria by PCR fingerprinting and screening for antimicrobial secondary metabolites

Authors: L.-H. Lee, Y.-K. Cheah, A.M. Nurul Syakima, M.S. Shiran, Y.-L. Tang, H.-P. Lin and K. Hong

Fifty-seven proteobacterium species were successfully isolated from soils of Barrientos Island of the Antarctic using 11 different isolation media. Analysis of 16S rDNA sequencing of these isolates showed that they belonged to eight different genera, namely Bradyrhizobium, Sphingomonas, Methylobacterium, Caulobacter, Paracoccu.. Read More»

RAPD fingerprint construction and genetic similarity of Mesona chinensis (Lamiaceae) in China

Authors: G.F. Zhang J.M. Guan X.P. Lai J. Lin J.M. Liu H.H. Xu

Mesona chinensis is an economically important agricultural crop, primarily cultivated for making grass jelly. It was originally discovered in South China. We examined 18 cultivars, including cultivars from Guangdong, Fujian, and Guangxi, China, Taiwan, and Indonesia, and a hybrid (a cross between cultivars from Indonesia and Guangdong), based on RAPD mark..

Genetic characterization and evaluation of anthropogenic impacts on genetic patterns in cultured and wild populations of mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) from Greece

Authors: I.A. Giantsis N. Kravva A.P. Apostolidis

Despite the great commercial and economic importance of mussels, Mytilus galloprovincialis (Bivalvia, Mollusca) in Greece, little information is available concerning their population genetic structure. We used RAPD markers to examine genetic differentiation and potential impact of aquaculture practices and other anthropogenic activities on the genetic str.. Read More»
