Twenty-four start codon targeted (SCoT) markers were used to assess genetic diversity and population structure of indigenous, introduced and domesticated ramie (Boehmeria nivea L. Gaudich.). A total of 155 genotypes from five populations were investigated for SCoT polymorphism, which produced 136 amplicons with 87.5% polymorphism. Polymorphism information content and resolving power of the SCoT...

PURPOSE The results from the published studies on the association between LEP (leptin) genetic polymorphism and cancer risk are conflicting. The common G2548A genetic polymorphism has been reported to be functional and may contribute to genetic susceptibility to cancers. However, the association between LEP G2548A genetic polymorphism and cancer risk remains inconclusive. METHODS To better un...

background: colorectal cancer is the third cause of cancer death in western countries. age, inadequate diet, obesity, inactivity and genetic changes are some of the risk factors of colorectal cancer. correlation of genetic diversity in homologous recombination repair system with cancer was evaluated in many recent studies. this study was done to investigate the correlation of t241m polymorphism...
