Abstract. Hasanah Y, Mawarni L, Hanu, H, Lestami A. 2022. Genetic diversity of shallots (Allium ascalonicum L.) from several locations in North Sumatra, Indonesia based on RAPD markers. Biodiversitas 23: 2405-2410. Shallot is one the leading horticultural and spice commodities Indonesia. Assembling shallot varieties to get a good seed quality requires high genetic which can be analyzed using mo...

  Abstract   Objective: Shallots are important part of the diet for many people and there is   long-held belief in their health enhancing properties. The aim of this study was to determine antifungal activity of shallot against reference fungal strains.   Methods: Alcoholic and aqueous extracts of shallot (Allium hirtifolium) were   tested for in vitro antifungal activities against Aspergillus ...

BACKGROUND Previous studies have revealed significant differences between populations for genotypic frequencies of glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) and M1 (GSTM1) polymorphisms. In order to find the frequency of the null genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 in Iranian populations, the present study was carried out. METHODS The total study subjects consisted of 1340 unrelated healthy Muslims/Irani...

The 8890 nucleotide RNA sequence of shallot virus X (ShVX), a new virus isolated from shallot, has been determined. The sequence contains six open reading frames (ORFs) which encode putative proteins (in the 5' to 3' direction) of M(r) 194528 (ORF1), 26333 (ORF2), 11245 (ORF3), 42209 (ORF4), 28486 (ORF5) and 14741 (ORF6). The ORF1 protein was found to be highly homologous to the putative potexv...

Shallots are an important part of the diet of many populations and there is long-held belief in their health enhancing properties. The aim of this study was to determine anti-candidal activity of shallot against chronic candidiasis agents. Alcoholic and aqueous extracts of shallot ( Allium hirtifolium ) were tested for in vitro antifungal activities against 33 candida species isolated from pa...

Background and Aims: Rotaviruses are the main cause of gastroenteritis in the young of human and a variety of animals in the world. Rotavirus G6 and G10 are the most prevalent genotypes in cattle worldwide, but are also found in human with possible origination from animals. Materials and Methods: In this work, we have detected the G6 and G10 genotypes of bovine rotaviruses isolated from di...

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...
