This paper describes the results of marker-mediated screening apple varieties for QTL FBF7 fire blight resistance. We detected at least one marker out three in 12 (85.7%) and two markers 5 (35.7%). The target fragments studied Antonovka obiknovennaya Galarina are missing. Indicating presence (GE-8019, AE10-375 CH-F7-Fb1) were identified Bylina, Rozhdestvenskoe, Uspenskoe Charodeyka varieties, w...

Sugarcane mosaic virus (SCMV) is one of the most damaging viruses infecting sugarcane, maize and some other graminaceous species around the world. To investigate the genetic diversity of SCMV in Iran, the coat protein (CP) gene sequences of 23 SCMV isolates from different hosts were determined. The nucleotide sequence identity among Iranian isolates was more than 96%. They shared nucleotide ide...

apple scar skin viroid (assvd) is one of the most destructive viroid diseases in pome fruits orchards which can cause significant economic losses. symptoms of this viroid including scaring, distortion and dappling were seen in some apple orchards in east-northern of iran. sampling was carried out from apple and pear orchards. the rna was extracted by silica capture method from leaves. assvd was...

Breeding new cultivars is a slow and expensive process, but genetic screening tools exist to improve efficiency. We employed the marker-assisted breeding (MAB) Pipeline approach to facilitate routine use of MAB in the Washington apple breeding program. This study traced the journey of one marker-locus-trait (M-L-T) association from publication through high-throughput PCR-based genetic testing t...

Apple (Malus × domestica) is a main fruit crop of cold temperate regions and traded globally. Despite being comparatively well documented plant cultigen, available germplasm in many remote still unexplored threatened. Increasing market demands for modern cultivars farmers’ preference high yields may lead to the gradual loss indigenous varieties. Gilgit-Baltistan northern Pakistan – mountainous ...

OBJECTIVES Considering the positive effects of certain nutrients on depression, increasingly prevalent in the contemporary societies, we investigated the nutritional content of prescribed and prohibited foodstuffs for depressed patients in Iranian Traditional Medicine resources. MATERIALS AND METHODS In order to conduct the study, credible sources of Iranian Traditional Medicine were primaril...
