Abstract The characterisation of traditional barley varieties from North Africa is promising with respect to detect traits linked resilience drought. Nine Algerian comprising the economically relevant local landraces Saïda183 and Tichedrett were genotyped by random amplifying polymorphic DNA (RAPD) Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers get insight into their phylogenetic relationship compare eff...

We identified two genomic regions that affect the amount of pollen stored in honey bee colonies and influence whether foragers will collect pollen or nectar. We selected for the amount of pollen stored in combs of honey bee colonies, a colony-level trait, and then used random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers and interval mapping procedures with data from backcross colonies to identify t...

samples from five sturgeon species including persian sturgeon (acipenser persicus), russian sturgeon (a. gueldenstaedti), great sturgeon (huso huso),ship sturgeon (a. nudi-ventris) and stellate sturgeon (a. stellatus) were collected from the south caspian sea. dna was extracted from the fins, eggs and skeleton muscle of the five species. rapd markers were used for identifying different kinds of...

The NEW GIFT Nile tilapia is a national certificated new strain produced through 14 years and 9 generations selection from the base strain of GIFT Nile tilapia. From NEW GIFT Nile tilapia two strain-specific RAPD bands namely S304 and S36 were identified from the amplified bands of 50 and 80 10bp-oligo-nucleotide random primers separately after gel extraction cloning and sequencing of the strai...

Salix matsudana Koidz. cultivar 'Tortuosa' (corkscrew willow) is characterized by extensive stem bending and curling of leaves. To investigate the genetic basis of this trait, controlled crosses were made between a corkscrew female (S. matsudana 'Tortuosa') and a straight-stemmed, wild-type male (Salix alba L. Clone 99010). Seventy-seven seedlings from this family (ID 99270) were grown in the f...

micropropagated plantlets derived from three different grape rootstock genotypes namely, dogridge (vitis champini), so4 (v. berlandieri×v. rupestris) and ari-h-144 (v. vinifera×v. labrusca) were subjected to randomly amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) and inter simple sequence repeats (issr) analyses in order to evaluate their genetic stability and/or detect likely existing variations among in vi...
