Mating system and intrapopulational genetic diversity of Copernicia prunifera (Arecaceae): a native palm from Brazilian semiarid
Authors: R.A.R. Silva, C.G. Fajardo and F.A. Vieira
The aim of this study was to investigate the mating system and genetic diversity of the palm Copernicia prunifera using inter-simple sequence repeat markers. We found that the C. prunifera has multiple inflorescences with hermaphroditic flowers and pollen viability of 62%. Outcrossing rates at the population level (N = 267) pr.. Read More»

Genetic diversity and population structure analysis in Perilla frutescens from Northern areas of China based on simple sequence repeats
Authors: S.J. Ma, K.J. Sa, T.K. Hong and J.K. Lee
In this study, 21 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were used to evaluate the genetic diversity and population structure among 77 Perilla accessions from high-latitude and middle-latitude areas of China. Ninety-five alleles were identified with an average of 4.52 alleles per locus. The average polymorphic information conten.. Read More»

Molecular mapping and candidate gene analysis for resistance to powdery mildew in Cucumis sativus stem
Authors: P.N. Liu, H. Miao, H.W. Lu, J.Y. Cui, G.L. Tian, T.C. Wehner, X.F. Gu and S.P. Zhang
Powdery mildew (PM) of cucumber (Cucumis sativus), caused by Podosphaera xanthii, is a major foliar disease worldwide and resistance is one of the main objectives in cucumber breeding programs. The resistance to PM in cucumber stem is important to the resistance for the whole plant. In this study, genetic analysis and gene map.. Read More»

Analysis of genetic variability of commercial melon cultivars using SSR molecular markers
Authors: N. Carvalho, F.M. Canela, P.H.S. Leite, M.A. Ferreira, V.R. Oliveira, M.F. Santos, N.O.S. Souza and G.S.C. Buso
Taking into account the scenario of melon production (Cucumis melo L.) in Brazil, it is notable the importance of the culture in the fruit market. The preference of the national market is concentrated in the fruits of the yellow type. Therefore, it is possible that the genetic base of the commercial cultivars is relatively nar.. Read More»

Internal amplification control of PCR for the Glu1-Dx5 allele in wheat
Authors: H.N. Heim, E.S.N. Vieira, L.R.T. Polo, N.K. Lima, G.J. Silva, G.A. Linde, N.B. Colauto and I. Schuster
One of the limiting factors in using dominant markers is the unique amplification of the target fragment. Therefore, failures in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or non-amplifications can be interpreted as an absence of the allele. The possibility of false negatives implies in reduced efficiency in the selection process in gene.. Read More»

Authors: R.B. Feitosa-Alcantara, A.V.C. Silva, A.F. Blank, C.S. Almeida, S.V. Alvares-Carvalho and M.F. Arrigoni-Blank
Hyptis pectinata, popularly known as ‘sambacaitá’ or ‘canudinho’, is a medicinal and aromatic species widely used in the Brazilian Northeast. In Sergipe, the excessive extraction of natural resources may reduce the genetic variability of native plants. Thus, molecular markers have frequently been.. Read More»
