چکیده

Seven kinds of hypervariable DNA probes, which recognize hypervariable loci, were applied for individual identification of human bloodstains. Allelic frequencies and their confidence intervals among unrelated Japanese individuals were previously reported from our laboratory, and codominant segregation of the polymorphism was confirmed in family studies. One-month-old bloodstains from ten individuals were investigated in the present study. The probability of matching was calculated using the database among Japanese population. Cumulative probability of matching from 7 kinds of hypervariable DNA probes was 1.1 x 10(-11), which was 4.5 x 10(9) times higher than that from 6 kinds of common blood group markers such as ABO, MN, Rh-Hr, P1, Hp and PGM1. Accordingly, DNA polymorphism is considered to be informative enough for individual identification of bloodstains.

PCR-based markers for identification of some allelic variation at Glu-1 and Glu-3 loci in common wheat

Marker assisted selection (MAS) is a tool for breeding, screening, and genetic characterization of germplasm. Allelic variation of both high and low molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW/LMW-GS) is associated with the rheological properties of wheat flour. In this study, we investigated glutenin pattern using SDS-PAGE and their PCR based on DNA markers in 60 advanced wheat lines and cultivars...

Two rare novel polymorphisms in the D8S1179 and D13S317 markers and method to mitigate their impact on human identification.

AIM Two rare polymorphisms were identified at the primer annealing sites of the short tandem repeat (STR) loci D8S1179 and D13S317 for a commercial multiplex STR system commonly used for human identification. These polymorphisms resulted in weak amplification from the affected alleles. Therefore, alternative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) thermal cycling conditions were developed that promoted...

Quantitative analysis of species identification tests of bloodstains using anti-human serum.

Immunological reactions of bloodstains of human and animals to anti-human serum were analysed quantitatively to determine which technique is the most effective to differentiate human bloodstains from those of animals. The lower threshold of counter-electrophoresis was 10-25 micrograms protein/ml and increased only slightly with increasing age of the bloodstains, while that of the ring test and ...

IDENTIFICATION OF MOLECULAR MARKERS LINKED TO LEAF CURL VIRUS DISEASE RESISTANCE IN COTTON

The identification of molecular markers linked to leaf curl virus (CLCuV) disease resistance in cotton has the potential to improve both the efficiency and the efficacy of selection in cotton breeding programs. Genetic analysis suggested that CLCuV resistance is controlled by a single dominant gene. In this study, an interspecific F2 population derived from a cross of Gossypium barbadense and G...

Two hypervariable minisatellite DNA binding proteins.

Hypervariable minisatellite DNA sequences are short, tandemly repeated sequences present at numerous loci in eukaryotes. They stimulate intermolecular homologous recombination up to 13-fold in human cells in culture and may be specific sites for the initiation of recombination in the eukaryotic genome (Wahls, W.P., Wallace, L.J., & Moore, P.D. (1990) Cell 60, 95-103). Reported here is the detec...
