Genetic relationships of 16 cultivars of pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L) Millsp.) and its two wild relatives (C. albicans and C. lineatus) from different parts of the India were analysed using 22 random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) primers and 10 inter simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) primers. Twenty two RAPD primers yielded 151 polymorphic markers (71.2%) with an average of 6.8 polymorphic b...

Haplotypes, combinations of several phase-determined polymorphic markers, are extremely valuable for studies of disease association and chromosome evolution. Here we describe a technique called M1-PCR (M for "multiplex" and 1 for "single-copy DNA molecules") that enables direct molecular haplotyping of several polymorphic markers separated by as many as 24 kb. A genomic DNA sample first is dilu...

Spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) is an economically important leafy vegetable crop in many countries. This is the first case study of using SRAP markers to analyze genetic diversity of Iranian spinach accessions. Eight SRAP primer combinations generated 88 scorable bands ranging from 50 to 1000 bp, among which 73 were polymorphic, with an average of 82.9 polymorphic bands per primer combination a...

Molecular markers are used in plant science a variety of ways. The method molecular genome marking based on RAPD-PCR makes it possible to determine the genetic status populations and establish intrapopulation relationships. In this work, we studied polymorphism dandelion Taraxacum officionale using RAPD markers. Five random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) were diversity relationship between tw...

the japanese and english white quails are widespread strains and belongs to the galliformes order, phasianidae family, coturnix genus  and japonica species. these birds are likely to be well-adapted to the hard conditions and resistance to diseases as it has attained economic importance as an agricultural species. in the current study, the genetic variation of japanese and english white  quail ...

Dog Rose is one of the most important species in Rosaceae family used as a medicinal plant and a rootstock for ornamental roses. This species is native to Iran, therefore, identification of indigenous genotypes of this species is important for genetic preservation or breeding purposes. Genetic diversity estimation of plant materials is one of the important pre-breeding activities in breeding cr...

Development of informative polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers at a genome-wide scale is essential for efficient large-scale genotyping applications. We identified genome-wide 1835 SSRs showing polymorphism between desi and kabuli chickpea. A total of 1470 polymorphic SSR markers from diverse coding and non-coding regions of the chickpea genome were developed. These physically mapp...

genetic diversity of 36 genotypes of dwarf and semi-dwarf apple rootstocks along with seven iranian dwarf rootstocks were investigated by use of rapd dna markers. a set of 100 random primers was utilized in pcr reaction from which 10 primers resulted in good amplification with high polymorphism. among primers, 10 selected rapd primers produced 160 bands, in which, 136 were polymorphic. cluster ...
