molecular characterization of 19 jatropha accessions that included 15 accessions of j.curcas and 4 different species was carried out using 3 different markers systems. highest polymorphism (96.67%) was recorded by rapd followed by damd (91.02%) and issr (90%). polymorphism information content (pic) was higher for damd (0.873) and almost equal for rapd (0.863) and issr (0.862) markers, whereas r...

expressed sequence tags simple sequence repeats (est-ssrs) are important sources for investigation ofgenetic diversity and molecular marker development. similar to genomic ssrs, the est-ssrs are usefulmarkers for many applications in genetics and plant breeding such as genetic diversity analysis, molecularmapping and cross-transferability across related species and genera. in spite of low polym...

Sequence Related Amplified Polymorphism (SRAP) molecular technique was used for assessing the genetic diversity of eight Egyptian bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes. Five SRAP primers combinations were able to expose polymorphism between studied The percentage (P %) ranged from 40 79.90 %. Furthermore, Polymorphic Information Content (PIC) values combination varied 0.11 0.31 with an a...

The genetic diversity of four protected indigenous chicken breeds was evaluated with 25 microsatellite markers. Polymorphism information content (PIC), heterozygosity with the estimator of genetic differentiation FST and Nei’s genetic distance were evaluated. The results showed that these four protected local chicken populations showed high levels of diversity. The proportion of inter-populatio...

Genetic study of pistachio, especially male genotypes due to the effects of pollen on nut quality and quantity and next generation characterizations, help to improve its management and breeding programs. We studied the genetic diversity among 20 male and 36 female pistachio genotypes using ISSR marker. In total 178 DNA frgments were proliferated using 12 primers that 169 fragments were polymorp...

The current study was carried out with a set of 44 mulberry accessions in order to evaluate the degree distinctiveness and relatedness among selected germplasm accessions. A total 40 microsatellite markers were on basis earlier studies, which 26 primers yielded 182 polymorphic bands. PIC (polymorphism information content) values above 0.5. Based clusters obtained from unweighted pair group meth...

To detect genetic variations among different Simmondsia chinensis genotypes, two gene targeted markers, start codon targeted (SCoT) polymorphism and CAAT box-derived polymorphism (CBDP) were employed in terms of their informativeness and efficiency in analyzing genetic relationships among different genotypes. A total of 15 SCoT and 17 CBDP primers detected genetic polymorphism among 39 Jojoba g...

Using 20 pairs of SSR primers situated on each chromosome the maize genetic makeup, 27 drought-tolerant genotypes obtained from Germplasm Unit International Institute Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Ibadan, Nigeria, were examined for diversity. The samples' genomic DNA (gDNA) was extracted using CTAB procedure specified by CIMMYT (2005). All markers used in this investigation extremely polymorphic...

The orangeback flying squid, Sthenoteuthis pteropus, is a species of significant potential value that widely distributed in the tropical and temperate waters Atlantic Ocean. There have been no reports population genetics effective molecular markers for this due to lack reliable information regarding its genetic structure many individual differences, as well complex changeable life history. Ther...
