The allelic variations in a diversity panel of 353 potato accessions, including 256 accessions belonging to Solanum tuberosum sub spp. tuberosum, 49 andigena, and 48 Indian varieties were analysed using 25 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. SSR profiles revealed high levels polymorphism distinctness among the studied. A total 343 alleles markers observed highly diverse tetraploid accessions....

Rice Diversity PIC SSR marker Diversity at molecular level among thirty rice genotypes, selected based on earliness and morphometric diversity was evaluated through five SSR markers associated with days to heading. Three primers viz., RM147, RM167 and RM215 showed polymorphism for growth duration related traits. A total of 17 alleles were detected among the 30 rice genotypes with an average of ...

Genetic improvement mainly depends on the extent of genetic variability present in the population. The molecular marker is a useful tool for assessing genetic variations and resolving cultivar identities. The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic divergence of 12 rice land races using five SSR markers. A total of 11 alleles were detected in 12 land races and the number of alleles ...

Molecular confirmation of interspecific recombinants is essential to overcome the issues like self-pollination, environmental influence, and inadequacy of morphological characteristics during interspecific hybridization. The present study was conducted for genetic confirmation of mungbean (female) and mashbean (male) interspecific crosses using molecular markers. Initially, polymorphic random a...

Cultivar characterization for fruit trees certification requires fast, efficient and reliable techniques. Microsatellite markers (SSR) were used in the molecular characterization of 29 Prunus spp. rootstocks. The DNA from the rootstocks was analyzed using five pre-selected SSR primers (UDP96-005, UDP96-008, UDP96013, UDP96-18 and UDP98-414) and revealed 81 alleles, which allowed each genotype t...

Although Japanese morning glory (Ipomoea nil (L.) Roth.) has been used intensively for genetic studies, DNA markers have not been developed in Ipomoea nil sufficient to cover all chromosomes. Therefore, we conducted microsatellite (simple sequence repeats, SSR) marker development in I. nil for future genetic studies. From 92,662 expressed sequence tag (EST) sequences, 514 unique microsatellite-...

Forty genotypes (clones) of sugarcane, including elite lines, commercial cultivars of Saccharum officinarum and clones of S. barberi were fingerprinted with 50 SSR markers using a PCR-based marker assay. Nei's genetic distances for SSR data were determined and relationships between accessions were portrayed graphically in the form of a dendrogram. Genetic distance values ranging from 0.60 to 1....

Microsatellites are the markers of choice due to their high abundance reproducibility, degree of polymorphism and co-dominant nature. These are mainly used for studying the genetic variability in different species and Marker assisted selection. Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) serve as the main resource for Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs). The computational approach for detecting SSRs and developi...

Exploring elite alleles based on association analysis of economic traits will promote the breeding, development, and utilization Prunus sibirica resources. This study used 113 P. clones with diverse provenances to perform mapping 20 149 pairs highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. Population structure split into three subgroups. General linear model (GLM) mixed (MLM) identifie...
