Functional molecular markers (EST-SSR) in the full-sib reciprocal recurrent selection program of maize (Zea mays L.)
Authors: K.S.C. Galv�£o, H.C.C. Ramos, P.H.A.D. Santos, G.C. Entringer, J.C.F. Vettorazzi and M.G. Pereira
This study aimed to improve grain yield in the full-sib reciprocal recurrent selection program of maize from the North Fluminense State University. In the current phase of the program, the goal is to maintain, or even increase, the genetic variability within and among populations, in order to increase heterosis of the 13th cycle of reciprocal recurrent se..

Genetic diversity, population structure, and association mapping of agronomic traits in waxy and normal maize inbred lines
Authors: K.J. Sa, J.Y. Park, S.H. Choi, B.W. Kim, K.J. Park and J.K. Lee
Understanding genetic diversity, population structure, and linkage disequilibrium is a prerequisite for the association mapping of complex traits in a target population. In this study, the genetic diversity and population structure of 40 waxy and 40 normal inbred maize lines were investigated using 10 morphological traits and 200 simple sequence repeat (S..

Genetic divergence through joint analysis of morphoagronomic and molecular characters in accessions of Jatropha curcas
Authors: C.N. Pestana-Caldas, S.A. Silva, E.L. Machado, D.R. de Souza,E.C. Cerqueira-Pereira and M.S. Silva
The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic divergence between accessions of Jatropha curcas through joint analysis of morphoagronomic and molecular characters. To this end, we investigated 11 morphoagronomic characters and performed molecular genotyping, using 23 inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) primers in 46 acce.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of the endemic flat-needle pine Pinus krempfii (Pinaceae) from Vietnam revealed by SSR markers
Authors: D.T. Phong, T.T. Lieu, V.T.T. Hien and N.T. Hiep
Pinus krempfii Lecomte (Pinaceae) is an endemic tree to Vietnam with restricted habitats at higher altitudes in the highlands. In this study, genetic variation of four populations of P. krempfii was assessed using 17 microsatellite markers (single sequence repeats). Of these 17 markers, eight were polymorphic, and among the 42 putative alleles amplified, .. Read More»

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»

Development and characterization of novel EST-SSR markers and their application for genetic diversity analysis of Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.)
Authors: T. Mornkham, P.P. Wangsomnuk, X.C. Mo, F.O. Francisco, L.Z. Gao and H. Kurzweil
Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) is a perennial tuberous plant and a traditional inulin-rich crop in Thailand. It has become the most important source of inulin and has great potential for use in chemical and food industries. In this study, expressed sequence tag (EST)-based simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers we.. 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»

Characterization and identification of ISSR markers associated with oil content in sea buckthorn berries
Authors: J. Ding, C.J. Ruan, Y. Guan, J.Y. Shan, H. Li and Y.H. Bao
Bioactive oils extracted from sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) berries contain highly nutritional and medicinal compounds; however, the oil contents of sea buckthorn berries are very low. Thirteen inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) primers were used to identify markers associated with oil content of dry pulp in 51 cultivars and lines, which clustered.. Read More»
