Microsatellite enriched library of Hyriopsis cumingii was constructed according to the strong affinity between biotin and streptavidin. One hundred clones with foreign inserts were sequenced and 65 clones were screened for usable microsatellites, of which 36 were deemed unique, of sufficient length (more than 8 repeats) and possessed adequate flanking regions for primer designment. Among 36 pri...

the light of the Genius Loci theory. The theory has been verified in many studies by the traditional-Islamic philosophers. Proving the closeness of these two viewpoints in extent and type of the environmental influences on disposition can open a venue for applying the theory of Genius Loci to establish a basis for environmental design in regions with Islamic and traditional cultures. This re...

body weight (bw) and carcass traits are complex and important economic traits that may benefit from the implementation of mas. the objective of the current study was to identify qtl associated with bw and carcass traits in an experimental half-sib cross of japanese quails selected for bw at 4 weeks of age. body weight and carcass traits were measured in the f2 population. total f2 individuals a...

Iranian bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) is an endangered livestock breed with distribution in northwest of Iran. Microsatellites are a powerful marker for animal genetic and cell line identification and population genetic study. In this study, after producing more than 40 Camelus bactrianus fibroblast cell lines, microsatellites loci from the genome of Iranian Camelus bactrianus cell lines ...

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) is bases of genomic selection, genomic marker imputation, marker assisted selection (MAS), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, parentage testing and whole genome association studies. The Particular alleles at closed loci have a tendency to be co-inherited. In linked loci this pattern leads to association between alleles in population which is known as LD. Two metr...

Aim: To analyze the allelic sharing and a set of preferable short tandem repeats (STRs) loci among Madurese full siblings. Materials Methods: This was an observational analytical study. The research subjects were determined from 20 families that originated Madura Island, Indonesia consisting father, mother, two biological children. blood samples collected, kinship relationship examined by using...
