Creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) is an important species to the turfgrass industry because of its adaptation for use in high quality turf stands such as golf course putting greens, tees, and fairways. Creeping bentgrass is a highly outcrossing allotetraploid, making genetic marker development dif!cult. Genetic markers anchored to miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITE...

The ancient tea plant germplasm is an important resource for breeding new varieties and has great economic value. However, due to man-made natural disturbances, it become endangered. In order have a better management of the conserved germplasm, requirement understand genetic phenotypic diversity. aim this study was evaluate diversity 145 resources from five populations in Sandu County Guizhou p...

to evaluate the genetic diversity of native populations of crown imperial (fritillaria imperialis l.) in zagross region, issr molecular along with 32 morphological traits were employed. a number of 160 samples corresponding to eight zagross populations distributed in six provinces were collected and assessed. using six primers, 57 bands were totally produced from which 49 were polymorphic. mean...

to study the genetic relationships among iranian onion landraces and to compare them with those in some foreign cultivars, fifteen microsatellite (ssr) primer pairs were employed. based upon the results of the obtained band pattern, 12 pairs of ssr primers in 18 onion landraces and five foreign cultivars form a polymorphic and scorable pattern. there were two to six alleles with an average of 3...

this study was performed for assessment of correlation of 11 morphological traits with rapd molecular markers in 15 cultivars of date palm collected from the south and south west of iran as population analysis by stepwise regression method. the results of simple and multiple regressions showed that in sum 84 rapd markers had significant association with at least one of the traits. the coefficie...

In the present investigation 28 genotypes of soybean were analysed using 37 start codon targeted (SCoT) markers and primers produced 260 DNA fragments with an average 7.03 bands per primer. From these primers, SCoT 33 65 wos most polymorphic, where 10 polymorphic amplification products detected. The lowest number amplified (2) was detected by 8, 14, 19, 31 59. Of bands, 200 (77.27 %) 5.41 To de...

linseed is an important oilseed and fibre crop predominantly grown in india. the aim of the present research was to evaluate genetic diversity and patterns of relationships among the 58 genotypes through 10 morphological traits and 12 polymorphic microsatellite (ssr) markers. euclidean analysis of agro-morphological traits grouped the 58 genotypes into four clusters of which cluster i was the l...

This paper uses Shannon’s information theory to give a quantitative definition of information flow in systems that transform inputs to outputs. For deterministic systems, the definition is shown to specialize to a simpler form when the information source and the known inputs jointly determine all inputs uniquely. For this special case, the definition is related to the classical security conditi...

Members of the primary gene pool of the chickpea, including 38 accessions of Cicer arietinum, six of C. reticulatum and four of C. echinospermum grown in India were investigated using 100 SSR markers to analyze their genetic structure, diversity and relationships. We found considerable diversity, with a mean of 4.8 alleles per locus (ranging from 2 to 11); polymorphic information content r...
