The Effects of Background and Interference Selection on Patterns of Genetic Variation in Subdivided Populations.
It is well known that most new mutations that affect fitness exert deleterious effects and that natural populations are often composed of subpopulations (demes) connected by gene flow. To gain a better understanding of the joint effects of purifying selection and population structure, we focus on a scenario where an ancestral population splits into multiple demes and study neutral diversity pat...
متن کاملGenetic Variation and Inheritance of Early Growth Characteristics in Three Wild Pistachio Populations
Pistacia atlantica is the most important tree species for the economy of many rural areas in west of Iran, but no effort has been made for the genetic improvement of this species. The aim of this investigation was to study the genetic variation and inheritance of early growth traits in P. atlantica. For this purpose, three wild pistachio populations comprising 60 randomly selected adult trees f...
متن کاملEffects of Selection on Genetic Parameters of Secale montanum Based on Seed Storage Protein Marker
Secale montanum is one of the important perennial grasses growingnaturally in arid to semiarid pastures and rangelands, with a typical Mediterraneanclimate, in northern and western Iran at altitudes of 800-2900 m. In this paper, seedstorage protein profiles of nine wild populations of S. montanum from differentregions of Iran and their phenotypically superior progenies as well as a multi-origin...
متن کاملAltitudinal Genetic Variations Among the Fagus orientalis Lipsky Populations in Iran
Nuclear simple sequence repeats (nSSRs), together with 16 different enzyme loci, were used to analyzegenetic diversity and differentiation among beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) populations along two altitudinalgradients in Hyrcanian forests of Iran. Both enzymes and nSSR analyses revealed a high level ofgenetic diversity in natural populations of F. orientalis. The genetic div...
متن کاملDiversity Evaluation of Trigonella foenum-graecum Populations Using DNA Markers and Phytochemical Characteristics
Background: Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is an important medicinal plant that is a source of diosgenin, trigonelline and other valuable components. Fenugreek seeds is used for its pharmaceutical and nutraceutical properties. Objective: The aim of present study was to investigate the genetic diversity within and between different populations of Trigonella foenum-graecum using DNA ma...
