Genetic diversity of Phytophthora capsici (Pythiaceae) isolates in Anhui Province of China based on ISSR-PCR markers

Authors: P. Li S. Cao Y.L. Dai X.L. Li D.F. Xu M. Guo Y.M. Pan Z.M. Gao

Phytophthora capsici is a plant pathogenic oomycete that damages numerous crops worldwide. Consequently, interest in research on the genetic structure of this species has grown in recent decades. However, there is little information about P. capsici in eastern China. We investigated the genetic diversity of P. capsici isolates from three large regions of .. Read More»

Identification of microsatellite markers in coffee associated with resistance to Meloidogyne exigua

Authors: T.B. Pereira, T.A. Setotaw, D.N. Santos, A.N.G. Mendes, S.M.L. Salgado, G.R. Carvalho and R.M. Rezende

Meloidogyne species are destructive phytonematodes that result in reduced yields of coffee. The classic test for resistance to Meloidogyne exigua in coffee progenies is both expensive and time-consuming. The use of molecular marker techniques can assist the selection process when it is difficult to measure the phenotype, such as in cases of resistance to .. Read More»

Genetic variation in and spatial structure of natural populations of Dipterocarpus alatus (Dipterocarpaceae) determined using single sequence repeat markers

Authors: N.M. Tam, V.D. Duy, N.M. Duc, V.D. Giap and B.T.T. Xuan

Dipterocarpus alatus (Dipterocarpaceae) is widely distributed in lowland forests in central and southern Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand, and India. Due to over-exploitation and habitat destruction, the species is now threatened. The genetic variation within and among populations of D. alat.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of Toona sinensis Roem in China revealed by ISSR and SRAP markers

Authors: P.Y. Xing, T. Liu, Z.Q. Song and X.F. Li

Toona sinensis Roem has an important value as a type of traditional vegetable and Chinese medicinal herb, and is also a valuable source of wood in China. In this study, we used the inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers to assess the level and pattern of genetic diversity in five domesticated T. sine..

Development of microsatellite markers of vandaceous orchids for species and variety identification

Authors: S. Peyachoknagul, C. Nettuwakul, P. Phuekvilai, S. Wannapinpong and K. Srikulnath

Vandaceous orchids are a group of orchid genera in the subfamily Vandoideae. Among this group, Mokara, Phalaenopsis, and Vanda are the most popular and commercially important orchids in Thailand. Novel microsatellite markers were developed from Mokara, the intergeneric hybrid from 3 genera Vanda.. Read More»

QTL mapping of soybean oil content for marker-assisted selection in plant breeding program

Authors: D.C. Leite1, J.B. Pinheiro2, J.B. Campos2, A.O. Di Mauro1 and S.H. Un�ªda-Trevisoli1

The present study was undertaken to detect and map the quantitative trait loci (QTL) related to soybean oil content. We used 244 progenies derived from a bi-parental cross of the Lineage 69 (from Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho”/Faculdade de Ciências Agrárias e Veterinárias - Breeding Program)..

Simple sequence repeat-based assessment of genetic relationships among Prunus rootstocks

Authors: Z. Turkoglu, S. Bilgener, S. Ercisli, M. Bakir, A. Koc, M. Akbulut, R. Gercekcioglu, M. Gunes and A. Esitken

Ten SSR loci, previously developed for Prunus, were analyzed to examine genetic relationships among 23 rootstock candidates for sweet and sour cherries, of the species P. avium, P. cerasus, P. mahaleb, and P. angustifolia. Five genotypes of P. laurocerasus, not used as rootstock, were included in the molecular analysis. The nu.. Read More»

Crossbreeding of Phyllostachys species (Poaceae) and identification of their hybrids using ISSR markers

Authors: X.C. Lin, Y.F. Lou, J. Liu, J.S. Peng, G.L. Liao and W. Fang

Crossbreeding is an efficient means to increase production and quality in plants; however, hybridization is seldom reported in bamboo. We crossbred two bamboo species Phyllostachys kwangsiensis (female parent) and Phyllostachys bambusoides (male parent) for the first time, and obtained suspected bamboo hybrids. We identified t..

Genetic diversity of sea-island cotton (Gossypium barbadense) revealed by mapped SSRs

Authors: X.Q. Wang, C.H. Feng, Z.X. Lin and X.L. Zhang

In order to evaluate the genetic diversity of sea-island cotton (Gossypium barbadense), 237 commonly mapped SSR markers covering the cotton genome were used to genotype 56 sea-island cotton accessions. A total of 218 polymorphic primer pairs (91.98%) amplified 361 loci, with a mean of 1.66 loci. Polymorphism information conten.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of eggplant (Solanum melongena) germplasm from Turkey assessed by SSR and RAPD markers

Authors: K. Demir, M. Bak�±r, G. Sar�±kam�±�� and S. Acunalp

Eggplant is a major crop in Turkey, which produces more of this crop than all of Europe; consequently, germplasm resources are of concern for the country. Molecular characterization of eggplant genotypes collected from different geographical regions of Turkey was carried out using SSR and RAPD markers. With amplification of fi.. Read More»
