Eight accessions of olive trees from three common varieties in Palestine, Nabali Baladi, Nabali Mohassan and Surri, were genetically evaluated using five simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. A total of 17 alleles from 5 loci were observed in which 15 (88.2%) were polymorphic and 2 (11.8%) were monomorphic. An average of 3.4 alleles per locus was found ranging from 2.0 alleles with the primers ...

The genetic diversity study has paramount importance in breeding programs; hence, it allows selection and choice of the parental genetic divergence, which have the agronomic traits desired by the breeder. This study aimed to characterize the genetic divergence between 24 soybean genotypes through their agronomic traits, using multivariate clustering methods to select the potential genitors for ...

The tropical dry forest is a greatly endangered ecosystem, from which Jacaratia mexicana is a native tree. With the aim to assess the levels of genetic variation and population structure, four wild populations of J. mexicana were studied in the Sierra de Huautla Biosphere Reserve, Morelos, Mexico. For this, DNA was extracted from 159 individuals and were amplified with six random primers using ...

This paper presents a novel technique of document clustering based on frequent concepts. The proposed technique, FCDC (Frequent Concepts based document clustering), a clustering algorithm works with frequent concepts rather than frequent items used in traditional text mining techniques. Many well known clustering algorithms deal with documents as bag of words and ignore the important relationsh...

not ensure that their joint solutions do not interact. This is clearly an undesirable property that is not shared by methods that form groups based only on the spatial relationships of OTUs that are relatively close together. Classifications based on minimum spanning trees (e.g., by using the single-link clustering method) and the UPGMA clustering method are obvious examples of methods that do ...

Momordica cochinchinensis or gac fruit is a 'superfruit' that well-known in Vietnam. Gac an orange ovoid shape and has soft spiny texture. In Malaysia, new less known plant. This study aimed to characterize using morphological analysis involving both vegetative reproductive parts the genetic diversity by Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis. Four different accessions were collected from...
