Esox lucius is an economically important freshwater species. Mitochondrial cytb, 12SrRNA, and 16SrRNA gene sequences were used in order to clarify the genetic variation and population structure in three E. Lucius populations, i.e., one Wild population (W) and two hatchery populations (Hatchery Population I-HPI and Hatchery Population II-HPII). A total of 55 individuals, with 19 from wild and 1...

Fenugreek is one of the important edible and medicinal vegetables that have a long history of cultivation and consumption. Characterize the extent of the genetic diversity among landraces will provide a good context for future breeding programs and genetic resource preservation. Genetic diversity and population structure of 88 individuals of eight landraces of Iranian fenugreek evaluated based ...

Aim. The aim was to analyze the population of Luhansk region and investigate possibility surnames differentiate populations at district level. Methods. general census database oblast used. Calculations indicators structure regional eighteen were carried out according I. Barrai. Results. is characterized by isonymy index І (2.4×10-4), FST inbreeding coefficient (6.0×10-5), migration v (18.7×10-4...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important legume crops in Iran. Wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri, is the most important soil-borne disease of chickpea in the world. This disease caused high losses in different regions during recent years. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) were used to estimate genetic diversity in 114 of F. oxysporum isolates from six counties...

studbook information collected from 1988 to 2011 in jafarabad breeding station of moghani sheep, north-west of iran, related to 9,457 lambs were used to study the genetic diversity and to evaluate the effectiveness of an implemented rotational mating scheme using pedigree analysis. lambs born during 2009-2011 were considered as reference population. means inbreeding and average coancestry for t...

Six highly variable microsatellite loci were used to investigate the genetic diversity and population structure of the Garra rufa in Kermanshah and Bushehr provinces, Iran. All of the 6 microsatellite loci screened in this study showed polymorphism. A total of 90 individual fish from 3 populations were genotyped and 60 alleles were observed in all loci. The number of alleles per locus ranged fr...

Members of the Department of Statistics will be teaching a graduate-level course of eight lectures introducing the theory and techniques of population genetic inference with particular emphasis on modern developments in the field of human genetics. Lectures of 90 minutes will be held at 2pm on Tuesdays in Lecture Theatre C in the Department of Zoology on South Parks Road. No registration is req...
