Development and characterization of chloroplast microsatellite markers in a fine-leaved fescue, Festuca rubra (Poaceae)1
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Chloroplast microsatellite markers were developed for Festuca rubra to examine its population genetic characteristics, taxonomy, and coevolution with its endophyte Epichloë festucae. • METHODS AND RESULTS Thirteen polymorphic markers were identified from the chloroplast genome of a F. ovina accession and intergenic chloroplast sequences of F. rubra accession...
متن کاملA Preliminary Experiment on Agrobacterium tumefaciens-Mediated Transformation of the P5CS1 GENE in Tall Fescue
Abiotic stress conditions can be imposed on plants through either poor water quality or adverse climate condition. These types of stress affect plant growth and development throughout their life cycle. Plants that are tolerant to drought are therefore valuable, and turf grasses have the potential to grow tolerant. Turf grasses provide ground cover and offer multiple benefits, from their aesthet...
متن کاملInterpolating Genetic Variation in Natural Populations: A Case Study of Plains Rough Fescue (Festuca hallii)
Characterization of individual genetic variation within a plant population is an important component of plant conservation and evolutionary genetics. Here we present a marker-based approach to interpolating individual genetic information from a sample of plants to the whole population. The effectiveness of the approach was demonstrated by applying AFLP markers to estimate genetic distinctivenes...
متن کاملInbreeding and inbreeding depression in endangered red wolves (Canis rufus).
In natural populations, the expression and severity of inbreeding depression can vary widely across taxa. Describing processes that influence the extent of inbreeding and inbreeding depression aid in our understanding of the evolutionary history of mating systems such as cooperative breeding and nonrandom mate selection. Such findings also help shape wildlife conservation theory because inbreed...
متن کاملA DNA marker for the duplicated cytosolic PGI genes in sheep's fescue (Festuca ovina L.).
Active duplicate PgiC genes in sheep's fescue, Festuca ovina, are associated with a PCR marker of specific length (about 370 bp, of which 231 are in an intron). Using this marker, the frequency of plants with duplicate genes is estimated to be about 10% in a population from southern Sweden. The close molecular similarity between the electrophoretically different duplicated genes is in accordanc...
