Fly diversity revealed by PCR-RFLP of mitochondrial DNA.
In this article, we describe an inexpensive, two-session undergraduate laboratory activity that introduces important molecular biology methods in the context of biodiversity. In the first session, students bring tentatively identified flies (order Diptera, true flies) to the laboratory, extract DNA, and amplify a region of the mitochondrial gene NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1. In the second sessi...
متن کاملSibling Species within Paramecium jenningsi Revealed by PCR-RFLP
Paramecium jenningsi Diller et Earl, 1958 is classified in the so-called “aurelia” subgroup. The original assumption of the monomorphic status of P. jenningsi (Sonneborn 1970) has been repeatedly challenged over the years with the application of increasingly sophisticated methods and knowledge of the geographic distribution of particular strains of this species. Investigations concerning geneti...
متن کاملCharacterization of the screwworm flies Cochliomyia hominivorax and Cochliomyia macellaria by PCR-RFLP of mitochondrial DNA.
The primary screwworm fly Cochliomyia hominivorax (Coquerel) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) is one of the most important insect pests of livestock in neotropical regions, whereas Cochliomyia macellaria (Fabricius) (Diptera: Calliphoridae), the secondary screwworm, is of medical and sanitary importance because of its role in the dissemination of pathogens. These two species share morphological similar...
متن کاملA high genetic diversity revealed between commercial rose cultivars by RAPD-PCR technique
Genetic diversity between fifteen commercial cultivars of rose were evaluated, using Ten decamer primers (A-J). All primers detected polymorphism among the cultivars. In total, 126 bands were produced, 73 of which were polymorphic. Primers E and F produced the highest, while primer H produced the lowest number of bands. The percentage of polymorphic bands ranged from 37% to 81% with an average ...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of Iranian melon cultigens revealed by AFLP markers
Iran is a part of the secondary centre of origin of melons, and therefore, there is a wealth of genetic variation of these species in this country. The Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) marker was applied to investigate the genetic variations among five major Iranian melon cultigens (Cucumis melo) and ‘Ananasi’ as a general well-known cultivar. Ten primer pairs were used on 90 indiv...
