Abstract:

 DNA markers are integrally connected to the success of molecular breeding and are fundamentally required by breeders to be able to, a. identify new gene sources in the available biodiversity, b. select parents in order to increase heterosis, c. decrease the number of backcross generations for gene introgression breeding programs, and d. carry out marker-assisted selection (MAS). The present research was conducted to examine the efficiency of anchored and non-anchored ISSR molecular markers for grouping 20 bread wheat cultivars introduced in a cold and moderate area of Iran. The results showed an average polymorphism of 82.69% and 75% for anchored and non-anchored ISSR markers, respectively. This result indicates that the anchored ISSR markers have a higher rate of efficiency compared to non-anchored ISSR markers. Therefore, simultaneous grouping of cultivars with the use of anchored and non-anchored ISSR markers can differentiate the cultivars of cold and moderate regions. When anchored and non-anchored ISSR markers were simultaneously applied for cluster analysis and grouping of the individuals, the pattern of genetic diversity aligned with the pattern of geographical distribution, and the cultivars attributed to identical geographical regions were allocated in one group. Based on applied clustering with two anchored and non-anchored markers, it was concluded that Pishtaz and Mahdavi cultivars had less genetic similarity compared to other cultivars.

Genetic Diversity of Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Genotypes Using RAPD and ISSR Molecular Markers

The importance of grain cultivation especially wheat is obvious in terms of providing human and animal food and its impact on the economy of human societies. The reduction of genetic diversity in cultivars prevents increasing yields in line with rising demand and consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the compatibility of them and increase their genetic extent. In the current, the g...

Assessment of Genetic Diversity of Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Cultivars using Microsatellite Markers

Determining the level of genetic diversity and relationships among genotypes is foundation for identifying the appropriate parents in different breeding objects. In present study, the genetic diversity of 22 wheat cultivars were tested using 22 pairs of SSR primers. Out of 24 detected alleles, 11 were able to show desirable polymorphism. In average 2.18 alleles per locus were generated, in whic...

A comparative analysis of ISSR and RAPD markers for studying genetic diversity in Iranian pistachio cultivars

Pistachio is one of the most important horticultural products of Iran. The best way to get the maximum yield is to have genetically pure and monotonous gardens. Thereby, study of genetic variation and providing genetic identifications, make this possible to have homogenous gardens with high performance genotypes. In the present study, genetic diversity of 19 Iranian pistachio cultivars was asse...

Evaluation of Genetic Diversity among Some Common Fig Using RAPD and ISSR Molecular Markers

The common fig (Ficus carica L.), one of the most important fruit species, belongs to Moraceae family and is widely distributed in Iran. In this study, genetic variations among some genotypes of common fig collected from six different regions of Ilam province (Iran) were evaluated based on RAPD and ISSR markers. A total of 73 and 29 alleles were produced by 14 RAPD (with their sizes ranging fro...
