The tropical tasar silkworm, Antheraea mylitta, is a semi-domesticated vanya silk-producing insect of high economic importance. To date, no molecular marker associated with cocoon and shell weights has been identified in this species. In this report, we identified a randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker and examined its inheritance, and also developed a stable diagnostic sequence-cha...

First line in abstract should be Date palm is an important fruit crop of the arid and semiarid region. In the present investigation two types of DNA based marker RAPD and ISSR were used to characterize 8 date palm genotypes grown in the Kutch region. Amplification of genomic DNA of 8 genotypes using 13 RAPD analyses yielded 88 fragments, of which 35 were polymorphic, with an average of 2.69 pol...

To assess the genetic diversity among four canola cultivars (namely, Serw-3, Serw-4, Misser L-16 and Semu 249), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), simple sequence repeat polymorphism (SSR) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analyses were performed. The data indicated that all of the three molecular markers gave different levels of polymorphism. A total of 118, 31 and 338 ma...

The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic diversity and markers associated with salinity tolerance in three genotypes wheat created for salt by plant breeding program, as well two Iraqi varieties using random amplified polymorphic cDNA (RAPD-PCR) eight primers were used. results RAPD marker revealed that there are variations several particular segments various sizes between selected ...

Jinten hitam ( Nigella sativa ) is one of the medicinal plants in family Ranunculaceae, native to Mediterranean region and several regions Asia. The seed widely cultivated, distributed, used pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food industries. Due similar morphology its potential adulterant such as Corchorus spp., N. seeds are susceptible adulteration substitution markets. Molecular markers have become...

Five species of the Riccia genus have been investigated by Rapid Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. The is explained and demonstrated with its genetic diversity based on morphological variations. Samples were collected from different parts University Dhaka growing in habitats around campus area. After study morphology, it has observed that population this taxon shows significant variati...

pod length is one of the effective components on canola yield selection on the basis of which can increase not only the seed yield but also the oil yield. molecular markers asso-ciated with long pod loci were identified in a doubled haploid population derived from a cross between the canola lines ‘quantum’ (long pod) ‘china a’ (short pod) using rapd and bulked segregant analysis. a molecular ma...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The aim of this study was to develop species-specific molecular markers for Bambusa balcooa and B. tulda to allow for their proper identification, in order to avoid unintentional adulteration that affects the quality and quantity of paper pulp production. METHODS Two putative, species-specific RAPD markers, Bb836 for B. balcooa and Bt609 for B. tulda were generated using a...

the applicability of rapds, aflps, and ssrs to examine genetic relationships in 36 populations of triticum boeoticum from west of iran was investigated. a total of 224 (135 polymorphic), 979 (429 polymorphic) and 246 (145 polymorphic) bands/alleles were detected using 14 rapd primers, 17 aflp primer combinations and 17 well distributed, mapped ssr markers, respectively. the polymorphic informat...

  Background: Garlic is a valuable medicinal plant with variability in desirable morphological and physiological characteristics. The analysis of genetic diversity plays an important role in breeding programs. The RAPD technique could be very effective in detecting genetic variation in garlic.  Objective: The objective of the present work was to detect molecular polymorphism among Iranian garli...
