Authors: D.L. Guo and Z.R. Luo
Simple sequence repeat (SSR) molecular markers based on 18 primers were employed to study the genetic relationship of Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kaki) specimens. Two hundred and sixty-two bands were detected in 30 Japanese persimmon samples, including 14 Japanese and 10 Chinese genotypes of Japanese persimmon (Diospyros kak.. Read More»

Genetic divergence and admixture of ancestral genome groups in the sugarcane variety �RB867515� (Saccharum spp
Authors: G.B. Maranho, R.C. Maranho, R. Desordi, A.F. das Neves, C.A. Mangolin and M.F.P.S. Machado
We analyzed 80 plants of the sugarcane (Saccharum spp) variety ‘RB867515’ in order to investigate its diversity and genetic structure at the molecular level. Four simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci (UGSM51, SMC1237, SEGMS1069, and UGSM38) and five expressed sequence tag (EST)-SSR loci (ESTA68, ESTB92, ESTB145, ESTC6.. Read More»

Bulk segregant analysis (BSA) for improving cold stress resistance in maize using SSR markers
Authors: M.Q.U. Farooqi, K.J. Sa, T.K. Hong and J.K. Lee
In this study, eight inbred maize lines with high or low tolerance to cold temperature were investigated using bulk segregant analysis (BSA). Genetic diversity and genetic relationships were investigated using 100 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers linked to cold tolerance in maize. A total of 319 alleles were identified. Am.. Read More»

Molecular characterization and population structure study of cambuci: strategy for conservation and genetic improvement
Authors: D.N. Santos, C.F. Nunes, T.A. Setotaw, R. Pio, M. Pasqual and G.M.A. Can�§ado
Cambuci (Campomanesia phaea) belongs to the Myrtaceae family and is native to the Atlantic Forest of Brazil. It has ecological and social appeal but is exposed to problems associated with environmental degradation and expansion of agricultural activities in the region. Comprehensive studies on this species are rare, making its.. Read More»

Recycling of superfine resolution agarose gel
Authors: T.-Y. Seng, R. Singh, Q.Z. Faridah, S.-G. Tan and S.S.R.S. Alwee
Genetic markers are now routinely used in a wide range of applications, from forensic DNA analysis to marker-assisted plant and animal breeding. The usual practice in such work is to extract the DNA, prime the markers of interest, and sift them out by electrically driving them through an appropriate matrix, usually a gel. The gels, made from polyacrylamid.. Read More»

Linkage and mapping analyses of the normal marking gene +P in the silkworm (Bombyx mori) using SSR markers
Authors: G.Q. Wei, L. Yu, C.L. Liu, B.J. Zhu and H.J. Ding
In the silkworm, Bombyx mori, normal markings are mainly controlled by the +P gene, which is located on the second chromosome. Due to a lack of crossing over in females, reciprocal backcrossed F1 (BC1) progenies were used for linkage analysis and mapping of the +P gene based on an SSR linkage map using silkworm strains P50 and H9, which are normal marking..

Increased relatedness among the neighboring plants from seedling to adult stages in carna�ºba wax palm
Authors: F.A. Vieira, R.F. Sousa, C.G. Fajardo and M.M. Brand�£o
The objective of this study was to assess the spatial genetic structure (SGS) at different life stages (cohorts) in a remnant population (N = 101) of Copernicia prunifera in the semiarid region of northeastern Brazil. Using seven inter-simple sequence repeat molecular markers, we were able to analyze 93 loci with 100% polymorp.. Read More»

Polymorphism analysis of multi-parent advanced generation inter-cross (MAGIC) populations of upland cotton developed in China
Authors: D.G. Li, Z.X. Li, J.S. Hu, Z.X. Lin and X.F. Li
Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is an important cash crop that provides renewable natural fiber worldwide. Currently limited genetic base leads to a decrease in upland cotton genetic diversity. Multi-parent advance generation inter-cross (MAGIC) populations can be used to evaluate complex agronomic traits in crops. In th.. Read More»

Evaluation on the germplasm of maize (Zea mays L.) landraces from southwest China
Authors: F.B. Chen, Q.L. Yao, H.F. Liu and P. Fang
Because of their local adaptation and economic factors that limit the adoption of commercial hybrids, farmer-saved maize landraces are still grown over a considerable area concentrated in southwest China. To evaluate the potential of using maize landraces, the germplasm characteristics of 96 landraces from southwest China were.. Read More»
