Here we describe the application of a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis for molecular genetic typing avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) strains. The RAPD technique was shown to be highly reproducible. Stable banding patterns with a high discriminatory capacity were obtained using two different primers. Overall, 55 E. coli strains were analyzed with a RAPD technique. The RAP...

In the present study, marine crab Portunuspelagicus was screened with 17 primers and made to score polymorphism. The main emphasis of study assess genetic diversity at intra specific level among 3 accessions P. pelagicus species Gulf Mannarusing RAPD markers. analysis shows that there is a high polymorphism different accessions. From this it understood each location varied respect environmental...

Different strains of the Escherichia coli reference collection (ECOR) differ widely in chromosomal size. To analyze the nature of the differential gene pool carried by different strains, we have followed an approach in which random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was used to generate several PCR fragments. Those present in some but not all the strains were screened by hybridization to assess t...

tive, ‘framework’ loci chosen on the previous single-tree map using a matrix correlation method) the sampling variability of the single-tree and population maps was estimated. As expected the population map was affected by a larger variability than the single-tree map. Heterogeneity in pairwise recombination fractions among groups of sibship revealed a (possible) alternative genomic arrangement...

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) is a simple, fast and cost effective method for assessing genetic diversity of plant varieties. The reproducibility of the RAPD amplification was affected by several factors, therefore causing misinterpretation. In this study, we analyzed the effect of changing the concentration of magnesium chloride, template genomic DNA and Taq DNA polymerase with the o...

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) PCR is a feasible method to evaluate genotoxin-induced DNA damage and mutations. In this study, Lactobacillus plantarum ATCC 14917T, Enterococcus faecium DSMZ 20477T, Escherichia coli PQ37 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae S441 were screened for DNA genetic alterations by DNA fingerprinting using M13 and LA1 primers after treatment with three compounds forming...

Aim-To compare restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) methods for the epidemiological typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.Methods-Thirty one M tuberculosis cultures originating from patients in the Canton of Berne in Switzerland, which had previously been typed by RFLP, were subjected to RAPD analysis. Cultures were coded so that the investi...

For organisms in which direct observation of mating and subsequent dispersal of offspring and relatives is impossible, patterns of reproductive success and genealogical relationship can only be established using genetic markers. The ideal genetic assay would (1) employ highly polymorphic genetic markers for distinguishing among individuals; (2) use little tissue for analysing early life-history...

RAPD is a PCR based technique which involves the use of single arbitrary. Advantages disadvantages, limitations and applications of RAPD.RAPD is a modification of the PCR in which a single, short and arbitrary. Therefore, RAPD technique can be performed in a moderate laboratory for most of.sophisticated equipment has made the RAPD technique valuable although. Tartflmann odak noktas ise de, RAPD...

PURPOSE To evaluate the validity of different methods of relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD) detection and assess the usefulness of detecting an RAPD in glaucoma patients. METHODS For this prospective observational study, we enrolled 70 of 153 consecutive glaucoma patients coming for examination. Exclusion criteria were cloudy corneas, recent surgery, fixed pupils, and other diseases pr...
