Authors: L.O.S. Anjos, R.F. Peixoto Jr, D.M.S. Chanquinie, L.R. Pinto,S.A. Creste, L.L. Dinardo-Miranda, M.G.A. Landell, E.V. Tambarussi and R. Vencovsky
Cotesia flavipes (Cameron) is a parasitoid wasp used in the biological control of the sugarcane borer (Diatraea saccharalis) (Fabr., 1794). Studies on the genetic diversity of C. flavipes are hampered by the lack of highly polymorphic molecular markers. In this report, a set of 11 microsatellite loci were developed from an enr..

Effect of fragmentation on the natural genetic diversity of Theobroma speciosum Willd. ex Spreng. populations
Authors: T.L. Varella, A.A.B. Rossi, J.F.E. Dardengo, G.F. Silveira, M.D.A. Souza and M.L.S. Carvalho
t fragmentation reduces the effective size of natural populations, isolates individuals in the landscape, and, consequently, changes species’ mating systems by increasing the degree of relatedness between individuals and inbreeding. Investigating the impact of habitat degradation on forest fragments helps to assess the g.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and differentiation in Camellia reticulata (Theaceae) polyploid complex revealed by ISSR and ploidy
Authors: B.-Y. Wang and Z.-Y. Ruan
Camellia reticulata is a well-known ornamental and oil plant that is endemic to southwest China. This species shows three cell ploidies, i.e., diploidy, tetraploidy and hexaploidy. We made the first investigation of genetic diversity and differentiation of natural populations of C. reticulata, and 114 individuals from 6 popula.. Read More»

Polymorphisms in different EST-SSR types derived from the Chinese bayberry (Myrica rubra, Myricaceae) transcriptome
Authors: S.Y. Zhang, C. Feng, C.J. Xu, C.Q. Zhu and K.S. Chen
Most plant expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeats (EST-SSRs) are not polymorphic, and it is important to learn the characteristics of highly polymorphic EST-SSRs. In this study, 357 compound and 5557 non-compound EST-SSRs, identified from the transcriptome of the Chinese bayberry (Myrica rubra ‘Biqi’), were divided into 11 types based .. Read More»

Evaluation of wheat landrace genotypes for salinity tolerance at vegetative stage by using morphological and molecular markers
Authors: A. Shahzad, M. Ahmad, M. Iqbal, I. Ahmed and G.M. Ali
Identification of new sources of salt tolerance is particularly important to develop crop varieties suitable for saline soils. We evaluated 129 Pakistani and 58 exotic wheat landraces/cultivars grown in Hoagland’s hydroponic nutrient solution, under control (tap water equivalent to 10 mM salt) and salt stress (200 mM NaC..

Genetic diversity analysis of barley landraces and cultivars in the Shanghai region of China
Authors: Z.-W. Chen, R.-J. Lu, L. Zou, Z.-Z. Du, R.-H. Gao, T. He and J.-H. Huang
We analyzed the genetic diversity of 115 barley germplasms, including 112 landraces and three new barley cultivars grown in the Shanghai region, using a set of 11 SSR markers. Sixty-six alleles were observed at the 11 SSR loci, ranged from three to ten, with a mean of six alleles per locus. The polymorphism information content ranged from 0.568 to 0.853, .. Read More»

Genetic diversity analysis of Bt cotton genotypes in Pakistan using simple sequence repeat markers
Authors: I. Ullah, A. Iram, M.Z. Iqbal, M. Nawaz, S.M. Hasni and S. Jamil
The popularity of genetically modified insect resistant (Bt) cotton has promoted large scale monocultures, which is thought to worsen the problem of crop genetic homogeneity. Information on genetic diversity among Bt cotton varieties is lacking. We evaluated genetic divergence among 19 Bt cotton genotypes using simple sequence.. Read More»

Analysis of quantitative trait loci for main plant traits in soybean
Authors: D. Yao, Z.Z. Liu, J. Zhang, S.Y. Liu, J. Qu, S.Y. Guan, L.D. Pan,D. Wang, J.W. Liu and P.W. Wang
Plant traits are important indices for regulating and controlling yield ability in soybean varieties. It is important to comprehensively study the quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping for soybean plant traits, cloning related genes, and marker assistant breeding. In this study, 236 F2 generation plants and a derivative group were constructed by using J.. Read More»

Intra-specific genetic diversity in wild olives (Olea europaea ssp cuspidata) in Hormozgan Province, Iran
Authors: Z. Noormohammadi, H. Samadi-Molayousefi and M. Sheidai
Wild olive (O. europaea ssp cuspidata) plants grow in various regions of Iran and are expected to have considerable genetic diversity due to adaptation to the various environmental conditions. We examined the genetic diversity of four populations of wild olive growing in Hormozgan Province located in southern Iran by using 30 .. Read More»

Authors: E. Kayesh, N. Bilkish, G.S. Liu, W. Chen, X.P. Leng and J.G. Fang
Among different classes of molecular markers, expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are a new resource for developing simple sequence repeat (SSR) functional markers for genotyping and genetic mapping in F1 hybrid populations of Vitis vinifera L. Recently, because of the availability of an enormous amount of data for ESTs in the publ.. Read More»
