RAPD and ISSR-assisted identification and development of three new SCAR markers specific for the Thinopyrum elongatum E (Poaceae) genome

Authors: G.H. Xu, W.Y. Su, Y.J. Shu, W.W. Cong, L. Wu and C.H. Guo

Diploid Thinopyrum elongatum, a wild relative of wheat, contains many agronomically desirable traits and has potential for increasing genetic variability and introducing desirable characters in this crop. Few molecular markers are available for rapid screening of T. elongatum genome segments in the wheat genetic background. We.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of Metrodorea nigra (Rutaceae) from a small forest remnant in Brazil assessed with microsatellite markers

Authors: M.C. Guidugli, R. Ferreira-Ramos, A.C.B. de Sousa, F.W. Cidade, T.G. Marconi, M.A. Mestriner, M. Groppo and A.L. Alzate-Marin

Metrodorea nigra (Rutaceae) is an endemic Brazilian tree of great ecological importance, frequently found in the submontane regions of ombrophilous dense and semideciduous forests. This tree is useful for reforesting degraded areas and the wood can be employed in construction. We developed 12 microsatellite markers from a geno.. Read More»

Variability of red rot-resistant somaclones of sugarcane genotype S97US297 assessed by RAPD and SSR

Authors: M.T.H. Shahid, F.A. Khan, A. Saeed and I. Fareed

Sugarcane breeding under climatic conditions of Pakistan is very difficult due to unavailability of viable fuzz (seed). Somaclonal variation can provide an alternative for improvement of existing genotypes. Six hundred and twenty-seven somaclones were developed from sugarcane genotype S97US297, and protocols for callogenesis a.. Read More»

Genetic distance estimates among single cross hybrids and correlation with specific combining ability and yield in corn double cross hybrids

Authors: M. Balestre, J.C. Machado, J.L. Lima, J.C. Souza and L. N�³brega Filho

The objective of the present study was to correlate the genetic distances (GD) of single cross hybrids with yield, heterosis and specific combining ability (SCA) in the double cross hybrid synthesis. For this, 10 single cross commercial hybrids were used from different companies, and all the possible double hybrids were synthesized by a complete dialell. .. Read More»

Characterization of chloroplast DNA microsatellites from Saccharum spp and related species

Authors: D.M. Melotto-Passarin, E.V. Tambarussi, K. Dressano, V.F. De Martin and H. Carrer

Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), and their flanking regions in chloroplast genomes (plastomes) of some species of the family Poaceae were analyzed in silico to look for DNA sequence variations. Comparison of the complete chloroplast DNA sequences (cpDNAs) of sugarcane (Saccharum hybrid cv. SP-80-3280 and S. .. Read More»

Transcriptome analysis of potential simple sequence repeat markers in Ammopiptanthus mongolicus

Authors: M. Jin, M.Y. Guo, L. Han, J.L. Li, S.Y Yang and Y.H. Su

Ammopiptanthus mongolicus, an evergreen broadleaf legume shrub, can survive under conditions of high and low temperature, extreme salinity, and drought. This attribute makes it an ideal model for studying mechanisms of stress tolerance in plants. However, simple sequence repeat (SSR) resources for this species are insufficient.. Read More»

Analysis of genetic distance by SSR in waxy maize

Authors: R.H. Yu, Y.L. Wang, Y. Sun and B. Liu

We examined the genetic diversity of 80 inbred waxy maize lines using 22 SSR molecular markers that could be used to achieve heterosis in waxy maize. Eighty inbred waxy maize lines with different phenotypes, 40 yellow, 25 white, 13 black, and two red lines were analyzed by SSR molecular marker fingerprint and cluster analysis... Read More»

Molecular characterization of the Andean blackberry, Rubus glaucus, using SSR markers

Authors: M. Marulanda, A.M. L�³pez and M. Uribe

The species Rubus glaucus, also known as the Andean or “Castilla” blackberry, is one of nine edible species of this genus that grow naturally in Central and South America. In Colombia, this species is the most important of all Rubus species for agricultural and commercial purposes. We used 20 SSRs developed for oth.. Read More»

Genetic relationships analysis of olive cultivars grown in China

Authors: M.M. Zhan, Z.Z. Cheng, G.C. Su, A.Y. Wang, H.P. Chen, Z.S. Yang, Z. Shan and Q.M. Huang

The olive tree is an iconic tree of the Mediterranean, and is used extensively to produce high-quality olive oil. Although the China olive industry has just begun to be valued, there were also existed mislabeling and synonyms in introduced cultivars. The aim of this study was to analyze genetic similarities among olive cultivars in China using SSR and ISS.. Read More»
