dCAPS markers developed for nitrate transporter genes TaNRT2L12s associating with 1 000-grain weight in wheat

Complex phylogeny and gene expression patterns of members of the NITRATE TRANSPORTER 1/PEPTIDE TRANSPORTER family (NPF) in wheat

NPF (formerly referred to as low-affinity NRT1) and 'high-affinity' NRT2 nitrate transporter genes are involved in nitrate uptake by the root, and transport and distribution of nitrate within the plant. The NPF gene family consists of 53 members in Arabidopsis thaliana, however only 11 of these have been functionally characterized. Although homologous genes have been identified in genomes of di...

Protein Network for Associating Genes with Dementia

Association between causal genes and their genetic diseases is an important problem concerning human health. Linkage analysis is such a method that can identify which unknown disease genes are located in chromosomal region out of hundreds of candidate genes according to their functions, interactions, and pathways which is good identification of genes associated with general/hereditary disorders...

Molecular markers for leaf rust resistance genes in wheat.

Over 100 genes of resistance to rust fungi: Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici, (47 Lr - leaf rust genes), P. striiformis (18 Yr - yellow rust genes) and P. graminis f. sp. tritici (41 Sr - stripe rust genes) have been identified in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and its wild relatives according to recent papers. Sixteen Lr resistance genes have been mapped using restriction fragments length polym...

Secondary Model Developed for Weight Selective in Evaluating the Efficiency of Cross-DEA with Fuzzy Data

Assessment of genetic diversity and identification of SSR markers associated with grain iron content in Iranian prevalent wheat genotypes

Iron is one of the most important nutrients in the human diet. According to the high consumption of staple foods such as wheat, the deficiency of iron in these crops would lead to nutritional disorders and related complications. To identify microsatellite markers associated with wheat grain iron content,38Iranian prevalent wheat genotypes were assessed using 30 pairs of genomic and EST microsat...
