Rapd
Genetic diversity in a germplasm bank of Oenocarpus mapora (Arecaceae)
Authors: E.F. Moura M.S.P. de Oliveira
Oenocarpus mapora is an Amazonian palm species commonly used by native populations for food and in folk medicine. We measured genetic variability, using RAPD markers, of material kept in a germplasm bank composed of accessions sampled from the Brazilian Amazon. These included 74 individuals from 23 accessions sampled from 9 localities in three States of t.. Read More»

Study of genetic divergence among wheat genotypes through random amplified polymorphic DNA
Authors: Iqbal A, Khan AS, Khan IA, Awan FS, Ahmad A and Khan AA
The degree of genetic divergence was estimated in seven wheat genotypes, six exotic genotypes and one local variety, through random amplified polymorphic DNA methodology. A total of 112 DNA fragments were generated by the 15 random primers, with an average of about 7.4 bands per primer. Among the 112, 50 fragments showed polym.. Read More»

Detection of two morphologically cryptic species from the cursor complex (Akodon spp; Rodentia, Cricetidae) through the use of RAPD markers
Authors: G.M. Yazbeck, R.L. Brand�£o, H.M. Cunha and A.P. Paglia
The cursor complex is a group within the Akodon genus of South American rodents, formed by Akodon cursor and A. montensis. Correct distinction between these two species is of great importance since they can harbor different Hantavirus strains. These species are only distinguishable by means of karyotypic or internal anatomic f.. Read More»

Evaluation of genetic diversity in Piper spp using RAPD and SRAP markers
Authors: Y. Jiang and J.-P. Liu
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) analysis were applied to 74 individual plants of Piper spp in Hainan Island. The results showed that the SRAP technique may be more informative and more efficient and effective for studying genetic diversity of Piper spp than the RAPD te.. Read More»

RAPD analysis of selected local Turkish grape cultivars (Vitis vinifera)
Authors: H. KarataÃ?Â? and Y.S. AÃ?Â?aoÃ?Â?lu
Turkey is very rich in local grape varieties. The solution to the problem of identifying local cultivars, which is considered an important deficiency for the region, will only be possible when they can be defined with molecular markers. Forty-nine local grapevine cultivars from Ã?Â?anlÃ?±urfa (Turkey) were characterized with .. Read More»

Genetic relationships between selected Turkish mulberry genotypes (Morus spp) based on RAPD markers
Authors: E. Orhan and S. Ercisli
Mulberry (Morus spp, Moraceae) is an important horticultural crop in Turkey, which is one of the main world producers of mulberry fruit. We evaluated the genetic relationships among 26 mulberry genotypes selected for agronomic characteristics, using RAPD markers. A total of 367 DNA markers were generated with 34 random primers..

Comparison of similarity coefficients used for cluster analysis based on RAPD markers in wild olives
Authors: M. Sesli and E.D. Yegenoglu
Five different similarity coefficients (Jaccard, Sorensen-Dice, simple matching, Rogers and Tanimoto, and Russel and Rao) were evaluated and 10 wild olives analyzed with RAPD markers. The influence of the similarity coefficients on wild olives clustering was investigated. Forty-five primers were used on samples from 10 wild ol.. Read More»

Application of RAPD for molecular characterization of plant species of medicinal value from an arid environment
Authors: I.A. Arif, M.A. Bakir, H.A. Khan, A.H. Al Farhan, A.A. Al Homaidan, A.H. Bahkali, M. Al Sadoon and M. Shobrak
The use of highly discriminatory methods for the identification and characterization of genotypes is essential for plant protection and appropriate use. We utilized the RAPD method for the genetic fingerprinting of 11 plant species of desert origin (seven with known medicinal value). Andrachne telephioides, Zilla spinosa, Cayl.. Read More»

Genetic diversity analysis with RAPD linked to sex identification in the sugar cane borer Diatraea saccharalis
Authors: C. Heideman, R.E.F. Munhoz, J.R. Pattaro J�ºnior and M.A. Fernandez
Diatraea saccharalis is an insect that causes considerable losses in the sugar cane crop. Our aim was to contribute to the knowledge of the biology of D. saccharalis, with the report of DNA fragments involved in the differentiation between the male and female of this species using the RAPD sex molecular marker GyakuU-13, which..

Genetic polymorphism, molecular characterization and relatedness of Macrobrachium species (Palaemonidae) based on RAPD-PCR
Authors: A.L. Guerra, A.V.B. Lima, F.G. Taddei and L. Castiglioni
The prawn genus Macrobrachium belongs to the family Palaemonidae. Its species are widely distributed in lakes, reservoirs, floodplains, and rivers in tropical and subtropical regions of South America. Globally, the genus Macrobrachium includes nearly 210 known species, many of which have economic and ecological importance. We .. Read More»
