Authors: A.P.C.G. Berilli, M.G. Pereira, L.S.A. Gon�§alves, K.S. da Cunha, H.C.C. Ramos, G.A. Souza Filho and A.T. do Amaral J�ºnior
We examined the effect of incorporation of molecular markers on variability between and within populations in order to maximize heterotic effects and longevity of a maize reciprocal recurrent selection program. Molecular variability was quantified by inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers between and within the maize popu.. Read More»

Genetic dissimilarity of putative gamma-ray-induced �Preciosa - AAAB-Pome type� banana (Musa sp) mutants based on multivariate statistical analysis
Authors: R.K.N. Pestana, E.P. Amorim, C.F. Ferreira, V.B.O. Amorim, L.S. Oliveira, C.A.S. Ledo and S.O. Silva
Bananas are among the most important fruit crops worldwide, being cultivated in more than 120 countries, mainly by small-scale producers. However, short-stature high-yielding bananas presenting good agronomic characteristics are hard to find. Consequently, wind continues to damage a great number of plantations each year, leadi..

Genetic variation of Sargassum horneri populations detected by inter-simple sequence repeats
Authors: J.R. Ren, R. Yang, Y.Y. He and Q.H. Sun
The seaweed Sargassum horneri is an important brown alga in the marine environment, and it is an important raw material in the alginate industry. Unfortunately, the fixed resource that was originally reported is now reduced or disappeared, and increased floating populations have been reported in recent years. We sampled a floating population and 4 fixed c.. Read More»

Genetic variability in Jatropha curcas L. from diallel crossing
Authors: D.O. Ribeiro, R. Silva-Mann, S.V. Alvares-Carvalho, E.M.S. Souza, M.C. Vasconcelos and A.F. Blank
Physic nut (Jatropha curcas L.) presents high oilseed yield and low production cost. However, technical-scientific knowledge on this crop is still limited. This study aimed to evaluate and estimate the genetic variability of hybrids obtained from dialell crossing. Genetic variability was carried out using ISSR molecular marker.. Read More»

Myrciaria dubia, an Amazonian fruit: population structure and its implications for germplasm conservation and genetic improvement
Authors: C.F. Nunes, T.A. Setotaw, M. Pasqual, E.A. Chagas, E.G. Santos,D.N. Santos, C.G.B. Lima, G.M.A. Can�§ado
Myrciaria dubia (camu-camu) is an Amazon tree that produces a tart fruit with high vitamin C content. It is probably the fruit with the highest vitamin C content among all Brazilian fruit crops and it can be used to supplement daily vitamin C dose. This property has attracted the attention of consumers and, consequently, encou.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of native populations of Croton tetradenius Baill. using ISSR markers
Authors: C.S. Almeida-Pereira, A.V.C. Silva, R.P. Alves, R.B. Feitosa-Alcantara, M.F. Arrigoni-Blank, S.V. Alvares-Carvalho, T.S. Costa, L.A.S. White, V.S. Pinto, T.S. Sampaio and A.F. Blank
Brazil has about 300 Croton species in different types of vegetation. Croton tetradenius Baill., which is endemic to the Northeast region and predominant in the Caatinga vegetation, stands out among the several species of this genus. Considering the importance of knowing the genetic variability of a species, the objective of t.. Read More»

Application of functional genomic information to develop efficient EST-SSRs for the chicken (Gallus gallus)
Authors: M.R. Bakhtiarizadeh, B. Arefnejad, E. Ebrahimie and M. Ebrahimi
Many years of domestication and breeding have given rise to the wide range of chicken breeds that exist today; however, an increasing number of local chicken breeds are under threat of extinction. A comprehensive characterization of chicken markers (especially type I markers) is needed to monitor and conserve genetic diversity.. Read More»

Development and characterization of nine polymorphic microsatellites for the small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus (Hemiptera: Delphacidae)
Authors: J.-T. Sun, J.-B. Li, X.-M. Yang and X.-Y. Hong
Nine microsatellite loci were isolated from the genome of Laodelphax striatellus (Homoptera: Delphacidae) by constructing (TC)6(AC)5 and (AG)6(AC)5 compound SSR-enriched libraries using suppression-PCR procedures. These loci were found to be highly polymorphic, with 13 to 30 alleles per locus in the three populations that we i.. Read More»

Analysis of genetic diversity and population structure of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) from China and Malaysia based on species-specific simple sequence repeat markers
Authors: L.X. Zhou, Y. Xiao, W. Xia and Y.D. Yang
Genetic diversity and patterns of population structure of the 94 oil palm lines were investigated using species-specific simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. We designed primers for 63 SSR loci based on their flanking sequences and conducted amplification in 94 oil palm DNA samples. The amplification result showed that a rela.. Read More»

Analysis of the genetic diversity of super sweet corn inbred lines using SSR and SSAP markers
Authors: W.R. Ko1*, K.J. Sa1*, N.S. Roy3, H.-J. Choi2 and J.K. Lee1
In this study, we compared the efficiency of simple sequence repeat (SSR) and sequence specific amplified polymorphism (SSAP) markers for analyzing genetic diversity, genetic relationships, and population structure of 87 super sweet corn inbred lines from different origins. SSR markers showed higher average gene diversity and Shannon’s information i.. Read More»
