Three different DNA-based techniques, Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR) and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) markers, were used for fingerprinting Dactylis glomerata genotypes and for detecting genetic variation between the three different subspecies. In this study, RAPD assays produced 97 bands, of which 40 were polymorphic (41.2%). The I...

Contamination routes of Listeria monocytogenes were examined in a chilled food processing plant that produced ready-to-eat and ready-to-reheat meals during an 8-year period by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis. A total of 319 L. monocytogenes isolates were recovered from raw materials (n = 18), the environment (n = 77), equipment (n = 193), and products (n = 31), and 18 dif...

the genetic diversity of a large number of pistachio genotypes grown in iran is not exactly known. most of the studies on genetic diversity of iranian pistachio varieties are based on morphological characteristics or isozyme markers. in the present study, the genetic diversity of selected pistachio cultivars along with some wild species were evaluated by amplified fragment length polymorphism (...

Phoenix dactylifera L. is a flowering plant species commonly known as the date palm and widely cultivated in most Middle East countries, including Libya. The present study analysed biochemical genetic diversity of fully mature eight Libyan cultivars grown different regions using amplified fragments length polymorphism (AFLP) technique. Six pairs AFLP molecular marker combinations were utilised ...

Abstract Background Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is an acute, rare and potentially lethal disease typically occurring in the third trimester pregnancy. So far, there no effective means prevention. Therefore, this study, we retrospectively analyzed clinical features AFLP patients for a better understanding. Meanwhile, first time, genetic background associated with onset was discussed by...

We report here the first combined amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis of genomic DNA fingerprinting data and cluster analysis of the exo-polysaccharide glycosyl linkage data of 10 regionally different strains of Lentinula edodes to compare their genetic and structural similarities and differences. In addition, the monosaccharide compositions, molecular weights, glycosyl struc...

The present work was conducted to evaluate AFLP (Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) and SSR (Simple Sequence Repeat) marker systems for their ability to detect genetic diversity within a set of 29 common bean accessions spanning both the Andean and Mesoamerican gene pools and to compare the efficiency of these two marker types in the classification of accessions according to the gene pools...

Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis was used for genetic typing of 88 Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni and 4 Campylobacter coli isolates. Restriction endonucleases HindIII and HhaI were used in combination with the selective PCR primers HindIII+A and HhaIII+A. Selectively amplified PCR products were separated in an ABI 310 genetic analyser. After normalization, pattern simi...

Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu) is one of the most important types of citrus grown world-wide, especially in China and Japan. It is also produced in California from mid-October to January. Several new Satsuma mandarin cultivars, originally from Japan or China, were introduced into California in the past few years. We intend to identify different Satsuma mandarin cultivars in California using A...
