Sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers were used to analyze and estimate the genetic variability, level of diversity, and relationships among 20 cultivars and strains of annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.). Eighteen SRAP primer combinations generated 334 amplification bands, of which 298 were polymorphic. The polymorphism information content ranged from 0.4715 (me10 + em1)...

genetic diversity of six populations of bartail flathead (platycephalus indicus linnaeus, 1758) was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp). a total of 118 reproducible bands amplified with ten aflp primer combinations were obtained from 42 fishes that were collected from six different locations in the northern part of the persian gulf. the percentage of polymorphic ban...

to evaluate the genetic variations in eleven fennel populations in iran, 55 accessions were analyzed by srap markers. twelve primer combinations produced 171 polymorphic bands. the cumulative dendrogram delineated fennel accessions into five major groups in accordance to the geographical regions from which the populations were originated. about 43.57% of total genetic variation was detected amo...

resistance gene analog polymorphism (rgap) markers linked to fusarium head blight resistance (fhb) and co-localize with qfhs.ndsu-3bs were identified using f3 plants and f3:5 lines derived from a ‘wangshuibai’ (resistant) / ‘seri82’ (susceptible) cross. the mapping populations were genotyped using 50 degenerate primers designed based on the known r genes. out of the 50 designed primer combinati...

Free-living protozoa are thought to be of fundamental importance in aquatic ecosystems, but there is limited understanding of their diversity and ecological role, particularly in surface-associated communities such as biofilms. Existing eukaryote-specific PCR primers were used to survey 18S rRNA gene sequence diversity in stream biofilms but poorly revealed protozoan diversity, demonstrating a ...

The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique has been used widely for purposes such as the construction of linkage maps, QTL analysis, evaluation of genetic diversity, and parentage tests. However, some minor bands of RAPD display a low reproducibility and low reliability. We describe a simple and efficient method for making minor RAPD bands clearer. The first step of this method is to...
