Background: Indirect genetic diagnosis using polymorphic DNA markers can detect carriers of hemophilia A. This technique is preferable in developing countries because of its simplicity and cost effectiveness compared to direct mutation analysis. In the present study, we examined usefulness of intragenic marker BclI restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) at intron 18, for carrier detect...

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) represents an important genetic marker for manipulation to improve the health and productivity of cattle. It is closely associated with numerous disease susceptibilities and immune responses. Bovine MHC, also called bovine leukocyte antigen (BoLA), is considered as a suitable marker for genetic diversity studies. In cattle, most of the polymorphisms are lo...

Physical mapping of BACs by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to analyze the liguleless (lg-1) linkage group in sorghum and compare it to the conserved region in rice and maize. Six liguleless-associated rice restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers were used to select 16 homeologous sorghum BACs, which were in turn used to physically map the liguleless linkage gr...

ABSTRACT The barley cv. Bolivia carries two leaf rust (Puccinia hordei) resistance genes, Rph2 and Rph6, and is the only known source of the latter gene. A resistant line (Bolivia-Rph6) carrying Rph6 only was obtained in the F(4) generation of a cross between cv. Bolivia and the susceptible cv. Bowman via progeny testing with differential isolates of the leaf rust pathogen. Genetic analyses and...

A maximum likelihood approach of half tetrad analysis (HTA) based on multiple restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers was developed. This procedure estimates the relative frequencies of 2n gametes produced by mechanisms genetically equivalent to first division restitution (FDR) or second division restitution and simultaneously locates the centromere within a linkage group of RFL...

Sumba Ongole (SO) cattle are from India which were imported to Indonesia during the Dutch colonial era and well adapted on Island, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. known for high meat production. This research was conducted identify one point mutation of g.415C/A (F94L marker) in myostatin (MSTN) gene (exon 1) using PCR-RFLP method with TaqI restriction enzyme (T*CGA). DNA samples SO bulls cows (...

A combined RFLP and AFLP map was constructed for hexaploid oat (Avena spp.). The segregation of AFLP markers was scored in two hexaploid oat recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations, the 'Kanota' x 'Ogle' RFLP population, and a population derived from 'Clintland64' and 'IL86-5698', barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV)-sensitive and BYDV-tolerant lines, respectively. More than 300 AFLP markers were...

A 356-marker linkage map of Glycine max (L.) Merr. (2n = 20) was established by anchoring 106 RAPD markers to an existing RFLP map built with a large recombinant inbred line population (330 RILs). This map comprises 24 major and 11 minor linkage groups for this genome which is estimated to be approximately 3,275 cM. The RAPD markers show similar distribution throughout the genome and identified...
