Molecular diversity analysis of eggplant (Solanum melongena) genetic resources

Authors: Z. Ali, Z.L. Xu, D.Y. Zhang, X.L. He, S. Bahadur and J.X. Yi

Eggplant (Solanum melongena), a vegetable that is cultivated worldwide, is of considerable importance to agriculture in China. We analyzed the diversity of this plant using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and RAPD procedures to subdivide 143 Chinese-cultivated eggplants based on coefficient of parentage, genetic diversity ..

Analysis of genetic diversity of Laeliinae (Orchidaceae) in the State of Sergipe using ISSR markers

Authors: M.F. Arrigoni-Blank, M.S. Santos, A.F. Blank, A.R.C. Rabbani, R. Silva-Mann, J.B. Santos, A.S. Costa and T.S.A. Menezes

The Orchidaceae represent one of the largest and most diverse families on the planet. However, this family is constantly threatened by predators and by the advancement of urban centers over its natural habitats. The objective of this study was to use inter-simple sequence repeat markers to evaluate the genetic diversity betwee.. Read More»

Genetic and morphological diversity of Moenkhausia oligolepis (Characiformes: Characidae) populations in the tributaries of the Araguaia River, Brazil: implications for taxonomy and conservation

Authors: T.J. Domingos, L.N. Moraes, R.M. Moresco, V.P. Margarido and P.C. Venere

Molecular genetic assessments that consider ecological information, in addition to endogamy levels, genetic diversity, and the genetic differentiation among species and populations, are particularly important for the conservation of biological diversity. Prime candidates for conservation genetic review are those subject to hum.. Read More»

Genetic diversity in wild sweet cherries (Prunus avium) in Turkey revealed by SSR markers

Authors: S. Ercisli, G. Agar, N. Yildirim, B. Duralija, A. Vokurka and H. Karlidag

Wild sweet cherry (Prunus avium) trees are abundant in the northern part of Turkey, including the Coruh Valley. We analyzed 18 wild sweet cherry genotypes collected from diverse environments in the upper Coruh Valley in Turkey to determine genetic variation, using 10 SSR primers. These SSR primers generated 46 alleles; the num.. Read More»

Genetic diversity in local and commercial dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) accessions based on microsatellite markers

Authors: P.D.S. Cabral, T.C.B. Soares, A.B.P. Lima, F.D. de Miranda, F.B. Souza and L.S.A. Gon?§alves

Dry beans are considered to be a crop of great socio-economic importance, because they are an inexpensive source of nutrients and because their cultivation requires considerable manual labor. Studies of genetic diversity have been very important for genetic improvement programs, because they give parameters for the identificat.. Read More»

Analysis of the genetic diversity of beach plums by simple sequence repeat markers

Authors: X.M. Wang, W.L. Wu, C.H. Zhang, Y.P. Zhang, W.L. Li and T. Huang

The purpose of this study was to measure the genetic diversity of wild beach plum and cultivated species, and to determine the species relationships using SSRs markers. An analysis of genetic diversity from ten beach plum germplasms was carried out using 11 simple sequence repeat (SSR) primers selected from 35 primers to generate distinct PCR products. Fr..

Analysis of genetic diversity among Chinese wild Vitis species revealed with SSR and SRAP markers

Authors: Z.B. Jing, X.P. Wang and J.M. Cheng

The genetic diversity among 80 Vitis materials including 62 indigenous accessions of 17 wild Vitis species in China and 7 interspecific hybrids, 10 V. vinifera L. cultivars, and 1 V. riparia Michaux were evaluated by simple sequence repeat and sequence-related amplified polymorphism markers. A total of 10 simple sequence repeat primers and 11 sequence-rel.. Read More»
