Genetic analysis of Sesamum indicum L. germplasm using RAPD markers

Genetic Diversity of Sesame (sesamum Indicum L.) Germplasm from Pakistan Using Rapd Markers

Genetic diversity among 20 sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) accessions was examined at DNA level by means of random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Ten primers used produced a total of 93 RAPD fragments, of which 70 (75%) were polymorphic. Each primer generated 5 to 17 amplified fragments with an average of 9.3 bands per primer. Based on pair-wise comparisons of RAPD amplification product...

Comparative assessment of genetic diversity in Sesamum indicum L. using RAPD and SSR markers

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an ancient oilseed crop known for its nutty seeds and high-quality edible oil. It is an unexplored crop with a great economic potential. The present study deals with assessment of genetic diversity in the crop. Twenty two RAPD and 18 SSR primers were used for analysis of the 47 different sesame accessions grown in different agroclimatic zones of India. A total of ...

Assessment of genetic variation within Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.) germplasm using RAPD markers

Characterization of genetic diversity in Jatropha curcas L. germplasm using RAPD and ISSR markers

Jatropha curcas L. is a rapidly emerging biofuel crop attracting a lot of interest, triggering large investments and rapid expansion of cultivation areas. In the present investigation, the genetic relationships of 29 J. curcas accessions were assessed based on randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analyses. A total of 72 polymorphic primers (47 RAPD a...

Association Mapping of Seed Oil and Protein Content in Sesamum indicum L. Using SSR Markers

Sesame is an important oil crop for the high oil content and quality. The seed oil and protein contents are two important traits in sesame. To identify the molecular markers associated with the seed oil and protein contents in sesame, we systematically performed the association mapping among 369 worldwide germplasm accessions under 5 environments using 112 polymorphic SSR markers. The general l...
