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»

Genetic diversity and population structure of Eucommia ulmoides Oliver, an endangered medicinal plant in China
Authors: J. Yu, Y. Wang, L. Peng, M. Ru and Z.S. Liang
Eucommia ulmoides Oliver, one of the tertiary relict species found only in China, is the only extant species of Eucommiaceae. Using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers, we studied the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of 187 accessions from 17 E. ulmoides populations throughout it..

Development and characterization of SSR markers from Pinus massoniana and their transferability to P. elliottii, P. caribaea and P. yunnanensis
Authors: Y.H. Feng, Z.Q. Yang2, J. Wang, Q.F. Luo, and H.G. Li
Pinus massoniana (Masson’s pine) is a widespread tree species in central and southern China and northern Vietnam; it is valued for rosin and paper production. Despite the significant economic value of Masson’s pine, little work has been done on its molecular genetics. We developed 318 SSR primers from genome sequences of P. massoniana, and we .. Read More»

Isolation and characterization of polymorphic microsatellite loci from aerial yam (Dioscorea bulbifera L.)
Authors: Q.Q. Yan, Y. Li, X.Q. Sun, J.L. Guo, Y.Y. Hang and M.M. Li
Dioscorea bulbifera L. is widely distributed in pantropical regions along the equator. The taxonomic treatment of this species is ambiguous due to its extreme polymorphic morphological characters. In order to provide tools to facilitate the study of genetic diversity, population structure, patterns of gene flow, and the mating.. Read More»

Estimation of diversity and combining abilities in Helianthus annuus L. under water stress and normal conditions
Authors: M. Saba, F.A. Khan, H.A. Sadaqat and I.A. Rana
Sunflower cannot produce high yields under water-limiting conditions. The aim of the present study was to prevent the impediments on yield and to develop varieties with high-yield potential under water scarce conditions. For achieving this objective, it is necessary to detect parents with desirable traits that mainly depend on.. Read More»

Development and characterization of microsatellite loci in Excentrodendron hsienmu (Chun & How) H.T. Chang & R.H. Miau
Authors: W.H. Shen, Z.H. Li, Y.H. Peng, M.H. Yang, Z.Q. Tan and W. Zheng
Microsatellite markers were isolated using dual-suppression-PCR for the endangered species Excentrodendron hsienmu (Tiliaceae) to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structure of this species. A total of 11 polymorphic microsatellite loci were characterized in E. hsienmu. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 9, with an average of 5.2.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of Ceratoides arborescens, a species endemic to China, detected by intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR)
Authors: P.C. Wang, L.L. Zhao, B.T. Mo, Y. Zhang, J. Chen and L.B. Wang
In order to investigate genetic diversity and population structure of Ceratoides arborescens, six populations were selected from different steppe types in Inner Mongolia grasslands of China. Intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to assess the genetic diversity within and among natural populations of C. arborescens. Thirteen ISSR primers gen.. 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»
