in order to investigate genetic diversity of two flax species, 50 genotypes were evaluated. the results showed that there was significant difference between two subspecies and also among different regions in subspecies for some seed yield components and us subspecies was superior than md for number of capsules/plant but md subspecies had more 1000 seed weight. genetic variation in each region w...

having knowledge about genetic relationships among accessions is necessary for developing breeding strategies to produce improved cultivars. in present study, genetic diversity and inter-relationship among 29 genotypes of citrus were comparatively analyzed using morphological and rapd markers. significant variability was observed among citrus genotypes for 61 quantitative and qualitative morpho...

available genetic variation for ascochyta blight resistance in genus cicer has prompted interest in the development and use of autumn sown resistant chickpea cultivars. a thorough understanding of the mode of inheritance of resistance to ascochyta blight in chickpea would assist the breeding efforts. in order to determine the number of genes, as well as to evaluate heritability and action of ge...

Sorghum ranks fifth in worldwide economic importance among cereal crops and is one of the most important summer annual grasses of Pakistan. As it is a very diverse crop, sorghum genetic fingerprinting requires an efficient marker system. We estimated genetic divergence among 29 sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) genotypes, including approved varieties and local and exotic lines collected from different ...

olive cultivars with specific characteristics have been developed thanks to iran’s particular climatic conditionsand long-term olive cultivation. the genetic variation and relationships among 40 olive cultivars, as well as 17 unknown genotypes from the national olive collection orchard at tarom research station, zanjan, iran, were evaluated using ssr markers. using 10 microsatellite primer pair...

In this study fourteen microsatellite primer pairs were used to study the genetic diversity of Shishi Date palm in Qatar. A total of 32 date palm (15 Shishi cultivar, 10 Khalas and seven male date palms) were collected from Qatar and 5 Shihi cultivars were collected from Saudi Arabia ‎for comparison. The Shishi set collected from Qatar was selected from ‎different regions to represent the ‎gene...

this study carried out to determine the differences between oil content and fatty acid compositions of 12 exotic and 6 local safflower genotypes. the experiments were arranged in randomized complete blocks design with three replications in research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad. the results of variance analysis showed that the differences of seed yield, oil content and fatty acid co...
