Population structure of Annona crassiflora: an endemic plant species of the Brazilian Cerrado
Authors: R. Gwinner, T.A. Setotaw, F.A. Rodrigues, D.V.C. Fran�§a, F.A. da Silveira, L.A.S. Pio and M. Pasqual
Habitat fragmentation has numerous consequences, particularly to endemic species, and has a negative impact on the genetic diversity of neglected species, leading to genetic drift. Annona crassiflora Mart. is a species that is endemic to Brazil, and its incidence in the Cerrado biome has decreased. The identification and chara.. Read More»

Development and characterization of microsatellite primers in Pogostemon cablin (Lamiaceae)
Authors: S.S. Sandes, J.B. Pinheiro, M.I. Zucchi, M. Monteiro, M.F. Arrigoni-Blank and A.F. Blank
Microsatellite primers were developed and optimized for patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) to characterize the patchouli Active Germplasm Bank of Universidade Federal de Sergipe. Creation of a genomic library for patchouli enabled the design of 12 microsatellite primers. Six of these microsatellites were polymorphic, revealing two well-defined groups of indivi.. Read More»

Use of molecular markers to compare Fusarium verticillioides pathogenic strains isolated from plants and humans
Authors: S.C. Chang, D.P.C. Mac�ªdo, C.M. Souza-Motta and N.T. Oliveira
Fusarium verticillioides is a pathogen of agriculturally important crops, especially maize. It is considered one of the most important pathogens responsible for fumonisin contamination of food products, which causes severe, chronic, and acute intoxication in humans and animals. Moreover, it is recognized as a cause of localized infections in immunocompete.. Read More»

Morphological and genetic relationships between wild and domesticated forms of peppers (Capsicum frutescens L. and C. chinense Jacquin)
Authors: S.I.C. Carvalho, C.F. Ragassi, L.B. Bianchetti, F.J.B. Reifschneider, G.S.C. Buso and F.G. Faleiro
Capsicum chinense and C. frutescens peppers are part of the Brazilian biodiversity, and the Amazon basin is the area of greatest diversity for them, especially for that former species. Nevertheless, little is known about their evolutionary history. Aiming to identify genotypes with wild and domesticated chara.. Read More»

Genetic variability and diversity of the main resources of lily assessed via phenotypic characters, pollen morphology, and ISSR markers
Authors: J.M. Wang, S.L.Y. Ma, W.Q. Li, Q. Wang, H.Y. Cao, J.H. Gu and Y.M. Lu
Lily (Lilium spp), which belongs to Lilium, is one kind of monocotyledon. As a perennial ornamental plant with extremely high esthetic, edible, and medicinal value, lily has gained much favor due to its mostly showy flowers of various colors and elegant shape. In this research, we studied experimental materials in a sample of .. Read More»

Efficiency of RAPD versus SSR markers for determining genetic diversity among popcorn lines
Authors: A.A. Leal, C.A. Mangolin, A.T. do Amaral J�ºnior, L.S.A. Gon�§alves, C.A. Scapim, A.S. Mott, I.B.O. Eloi, V. Cordov�©s and M.F.P. da Silva
Using only one type of marker to quantify genetic diversity generates results that have been questioned in terms of reliability, when compared to the combined use of different markers. To compare the efficiency of the use of single versus multiple markers, we quantified genetic diversity among 10 S7 inbred popcorn lines using .. Read More»
