UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Microsatellite markers were developed for the plant species Elaeagnus angustifolia to assist in future investigations of genetic variability in its native and invasive ranges and the precise origins of the United States/Canada invasion. • METHODS AND RESULTS Eleven polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed. The number of alleles observed for each loc...

Shepherdia × utahensis ‘Torrey’ (hybrid buffaloberry) is an actinorhizal plant that can form symbiotic nodules with the actinobacterial genus Frankia . However, little research has been conducted to investigate presence of in their and effects on growth. In this study, plants were grown a Metro-Mix ® 820 substrate inoculated soils collected from Mohave County, AZ, or low organic-matter North Lo...

Species of genus Hippophae commonly called Sea buckthorn grow in more than 30 countries of the world. Belonging to the family of Elaeagnaceae, each and every part of the plant is a source of about 190 bioactive substances which include many antioxidants. Different populations of Hippophae rhamnoides L. growing in Kargil district of Ladakh region of J&K (India) were subjected to the quantificati...

Hippophae tibetana is a small, dioecious wind-pollinated shrub endemic to the Tibetan-Qinghai Plateau. It is one of the shrubs that occur at very high elevations (5250 m a.s.l.). The Himalayan mountains provides a significant geographical barrier to the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, dividing the Himalayan area into two regions with Nepal to the south and Tibet to the north. There is no information o...

The aim the research formation professional activity future competitive specialist educational process universities for system-structural organization training biology students. analysis wide range various works aimed at pedagogical specialists leads to conclusion that its structure, content and can...

This study was performed out genetic diversity of some Elaeagnus angustifolia L. populations growing in İzmir province by using ISSR markers. In the study, PCR 15 primers. products were run agarose gel and visualized under UV light. Amplified scored as follows. A total 46 bands produced from primers, which 27 polymorphic. The proportion polymorphic evaluated approximately 58.7%. Genetic distanc...

Frankia sp. NRRL B-16219 was directly isolated from a soil sample obtained from the rhizosphere of Ceanothus jepsonii growing in the USA. Its host plant range includes members of Elaeagnaceae species. Phylogenetically, strain NRRL B-16219 is closely related to "Frankia discariae" with a 16S rRNA gene similarity of 99.78%. Because of the lack of genetic tools for Frankia, our understanding of th...

The occurrence and diversity of Frankia nodulating Elaeagnus angustifolia in Tunisia were evaluated in 30 soils from different regions by a Frankia-capturing assay. Despite the absence of actinorhizal plants in 24 of the 30 soils, nodules were captured from all the samples. Eight pure strains were isolated from single colonies grown in agar medium. On the basis of 16S rRNA and GlnII sequences, ...
