The Aspergillus genus belongs to a filamentous fungal group characterized by wide dispersion in the environment. Some species are associated with diseases, especially in immunocompromised patients, while others are of economical importance due to aflatoxin production or biotechnological applications. Its species identification is nowadays performed by traditional techniques combined with molecu...

genetic diversity is one of principle factors to succeed in breeding programs, so its determination is vital in the using of plant genetic resources. with the aim of evaluation of genetic diversity among safflower landraces, 20 lines (14 iranian and 6 foreign lines) were studied for phenotypic and genotypic variations using agro-morphological traits and rapd markers. field study was conducted i...

Molecular characterization of eleven clones of C. winterianus collected from eleven districts of West Bengal was carried out with 10 RAPD and 9 ISSR primers. The RAPD primers developed 81 robust loci, which revealed 74.07% polymorphism and 61 ISSR markers generated 47.50% polymorphism. Out of the different anchored primer combinations, ISSR primers with AG and GA motifs produced clear and maxim...

Abstract. Hasanah Y, Mawarni L, Hanu, H, Lestami A. 2022. Genetic diversity of shallots (Allium ascalonicum L.) from several locations in North Sumatra, Indonesia based on RAPD markers. Biodiversitas 23: 2405-2410. Shallot is one the leading horticultural and spice commodities Indonesia. Assembling shallot varieties to get a good seed quality requires high genetic which can be analyzed using mo...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation of expression of phosphorylated methyl-CpG binding protein 2-Ser421 (MeCP2-S421) and VEGF in the membranes of patients with PDR. We examined the expression of phospho-MeCP2-S80, S421, VEGF and PEDF in surgically excised PDR membranes from 33 patients with diabetes, and idiopathic epiretinal membranes from 11 patients without diabetes, us...

Genetic diversity amongst 21 induced mutant clones tolerant to salinity along with one non-irradiated sensitive clone of banana (Musa acuminata cv. Dwarf Cavendish (AAA)) were studied using morphological and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Out of the 30 phenotypic indices screened, 23 were polymorph and two traits, leaf habit and blotches color, were differentiated by non-irrad...

Rust, incited by Uromyces appendiculatus^ is a major disease in common bean {Phaseolus vulgaris L,). Plant growth habit is also an important trait. Indeterminate growth habit was first reported to be controlled by a single dominant gene (Fin) (Lamprecht, 1935). Molecular markers such as isozymes, RFLP, and RAPD, have been used to tag genes for many traits, particularly disease resistance in sev...
