Finger millet is an important cereal crop in eastern Africa and southern India with excellent grain storage quality and unique ability to thrive in extreme environmental conditions. Since negligible attention has been paid to improving this crop to date, the current study used Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies to develop both Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) and Single Nucleotide Polymo...

Branchiostoma belcheri Gray is a second-class, nationally protected protochordate in China. We developed 10 novel polymorphic sites in B. belcheri, which were examined using a population of 30 wild individuals from Xiamen, China. The polymorphism information content ranged between 0.141 and 0.681, and the number of alleles varied from 2 to 5. The expected and observed heterozygosities varied be...

We present a general method for constructing extensional models for the Girard-Reynolds polymorphic lambda calculus the polymorphic extensional collapse. The method yields models that satisfy additional, computationally motivated constraints like having only two polymorphic booleans and having only the numerals as polymorphic integers. Moreover, the method can be used to show that any simply ty...

Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.), considered as the ancestor of cultivated trees in Arasbaran region, is a medicinally and economically plant species. However, little is known about genetic diversity, breeding programs, and population structure of this species in mentioned region. Keeping this in view, the main objectives of present study were to analysis the genetic diversity, phyloge...

Background and Objectives: Information ethics, according to Islam, equals observing human rights and morals in dealing with information transmission and provision, which must be based on honesty and truthfulness. As Islam highly values society and social issues, it believes that human behaviors and interactions are strongly interconnected in a society. Committing to ethical issues regarding inf...

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is an economically important plant, valued all over the world. The existing variation among 16 promising cultivars as observed through differential rhizome yield (181.9 to 477.3 g) was proved to have a genetic basis using different genetic markers such as karyotype, 4C nuclear DNA content and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). The karyotypic analysis re...

genetic drift of germplasm in cultivated wheat is good motivation for studying genetic diversity in its wild relatives. in this study, r-rap, a new retrotransposon-based marker, was applied to assess the structure and genetic diversity of 30 accessions of aegilops sp. originating from different geographical regions of iran. the 15 r-rap primer combinations revealed a total of 338 bands ranging ...

Allelic variation at 46 simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker loci well distributed across the sorghum genome was used to assess genetic diversity among 92 sorghum lines, 74 resistant and 18 susceptible to grain mould. Of the 46 SSR markers, 44 were polymorphic, with the number of alleles ranging from 2 to 20 with an average of 7.55 alleles per locus. Genetic diversity among the sorghum lines was...

The mandarin fish is a popular fresh water food fish in China. Fifty-three polymorphic microsatellite markers were isolated through construction of an enriched library of genomic DNA of Siniperca chuatsi (Percichthyidae). We found 2 to 7 alleles per locus. The observed and expected heterozygosity values varied from 0.059 to 1.000 and from 0.305 to 0.818, respectively. The polymorphic informatio...
