Genetic variability and diversity of the main resources of lily assessed via phenotypic characters, pollen morphology, and ISSR markers

Authors: J.M. Wang, S.L.Y. Ma, W.Q. Li, Q. Wang, H.Y. Cao, J.H. Gu and Y.M. Lu

Lily (Lilium spp), which belongs to Lilium, is one kind of monocotyledon. As a perennial ornamental plant with extremely high esthetic, edible, and medicinal value, lily has gained much favor due to its mostly showy flowers of various colors and elegant shape. In this research, we studied experimental materials in a sample of .. Read More»

Chemical and genetic diversity of high-seed-yield sorghum (Sorghum bicolor M.) germplasms

Authors: J. Ryu, S.B. Im, S.J. Kwon, J.W. Ahn, S.W. Jeong and S.Y. Kang

This study evaluated the chemical and genetic diversity of high-seed-yield sorghum germplasms from Korea, the United States, and South Africa. We identified significant differences in the chemical contents of whole plants at the heading stage in all cultivars, including differences in crude protein, fat, fiber, ash, neutral de.. Read More»

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»

Construction and characterization of a bacterial artificial chromosome library for the allotetraploid Gossypium tomentosum

Authors: F. Liu, Y.H. Wang, H.Y. Gao, C.Y. Wang, Z.L. Zhou, X.Y. Cai, X.X. Wang, Z.S. Zhang and K.B. Wang

Gossypium tomentosum is a wild allotetraploid species with the (AD)5 genome. It is characterized by many useful traits including finer fiber fineness, drought tolerance, and Fusarium and Verticillium resistance. We constructed the first bacterial artificial chromosome library for Gossypium tomentosum. With high quality and broad coverage, this library inc.. Read More»

Genetic diversity in wild sweet cherries (Prunus avium) in Turkey revealed by SSR markers

Authors: S. Ercisli, G. Agar, N. Yildirim, B. Duralija, A. Vokurka and H. Karlidag

Wild sweet cherry (Prunus avium) trees are abundant in the northern part of Turkey, including the Coruh Valley. We analyzed 18 wild sweet cherry genotypes collected from diverse environments in the upper Coruh Valley in Turkey to determine genetic variation, using 10 SSR primers. These SSR primers generated 46 alleles; the num.. Read More»

Analysis of the genetic diversity of beach plums by simple sequence repeat markers

Authors: X.M. Wang, W.L. Wu, C.H. Zhang, Y.P. Zhang, W.L. Li and T. Huang

The purpose of this study was to measure the genetic diversity of wild beach plum and cultivated species, and to determine the species relationships using SSRs markers. An analysis of genetic diversity from ten beach plum germplasms was carried out using 11 simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers selected from 35 primers to generate distinct PCR products. Fr..

Genetic diversity and morphological characterization of half-sib families of Heliconia bihai L., H. chartacea Lane ex Barreiros, and H. wagneriana Peterson

Authors: F.R.A. Pereira, R.M. Moraes Filho, L.S.S. Martins, A.V.V. Montarroyos and V. Loges

The Neotropical Heliconia genus contains highly diversified plants and up to 220 species have been reported from the north of Mexico to the South of Brazil. Heliconia are cultivated as ornamental garden plants and as cut flowers. All species can be propagated by seeds or vegetatively, through rhizomes. Depending on the species.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of turmeric germplasm (Curcuma longa; Zingiberaceae) identified by microsatellite markers

Authors: M.S. Sigrist, J.B. Pinheiro, J.A. Azevedo Filho and M.I. Zucchi

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a triploid, vegetatively propagated crop introduced early during the colonization of Brazil. Turmeric rhizomes are ground into a powder used as a natural dye in the food industry, although recent research suggests a greater potential for the development of drugs and cosmetics. In Brazil, little is k.. Read More»
