New microsatellite loci for water yam (Dioscorea alata, Dioscoreaceae) and cross-amplification for other Dioscorea species.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Dioscorea alata L. is one of the most widely distributed species of the genus in the humid and semihumid tropics and is associated with traditional agriculture. Only a few microsatellite markers have been developed so far for this and other Dioscorea species. METHODS AND RESULTS We isolated 14 codominant polymorphic microsatellite markers using a microsatellite-enriched g...
متن کاملAnti Diarrhoeal Activity of Dioscorea Oppositifolia L. (dioscoreaceae) Tubers
INTRODUCTION In developing countries, a majority of people living in rural areas almost exclusively use traditional medicine in treating all sorts of diseases including diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is a major health problem especially for children under the age of 5 and up to 17% of children admitted in the paediatrics ward die of diarrhoea. Worldwide distribution of diarrhoea accounts for more than 5-...
متن کاملNew microsatellite loci in the dwarf yams Dioscorea group Epipetrum (Dioscoreaceae).
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized from enriched genomic libraries of two taxa of the Chilean Epipetrum group of Dioscorea to assess their levels of genetic diversity and population differentiation. • METHODS AND RESULTS Eleven microsatellite loci were identified. Six out of nine microsatellites from D. biloba amplified in D. humilis, and th...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of microsatellites for the yam Dioscorea cayenensis (Dioscoreaceae) and cross-amplification in D. rotundata.
Dioscorea cayenensis and Dioscorea rotundata are among the most important yam species for the humid and sub-humid tropics. We isolated nine polymorphic microsatellite markers using a microsatellite-enriched genomic library technique. The nine primer pairs were validated in 22 D. cayenensis accessions, and were tested for transferability in 26 D. rotundata accessions. The number of bands ranged ...
