honeybee is a pollinator that has prominent role in agriculture products and nourishment for human. so, the most number of studies like genetic improvement were done on honeybee. recent advances in knowledge of molecular genetics of bee emphasize the potential for using genetic markers to select favored traits. this research was done to determine polymorphism of loci of first foraging age (aff)...

Outbreaks of rice blast have been a threat to the global production of rice. Members of the Magnaporthe grisea species complex cause blast disease on a wide range of gramineous hosts, including cultivated rice and other grass species. Recently, based on phylogenetic analyses and mating tests, isolates from crabgrass were separated from the species complex and named M. grisea. Then other isolate...

due to the lack of specified linage and parentage information from exotic broodstocks of litopenaeus vannamei shrimp, in iran and multiple breeding of closed broodstock populations, also concern about the low level of genetic diversity and accumulated inbreeding and in order to comparison of the genetic variability indices and analysis of the genetic differentiation, total of 30 samples from bo...

onion thrips, thrips tabaci lindeman, is a broadly distributed pest that attacks a wide range of crops. to investigate the intra-specific morphometric variation and the genetic diversity of the species in iran, four populations from tobacco plus 18 populations from onion were studied in some 17 provinces of iran. morphological analysis, using principal components and canonical discriminant anal...

fusarium wilt caused by fusarium oxysporum schltdl. f.sp. phaseoli (fop), is one of the important diseases of the common bean in iran and many of the bean growing countries. incidence of the disease has been reported in tropical and semi-tropical regions of the world. this study was carried out to characterize genetic diversity of f. oxysporum isolates from the common bean by vegetative compati...

Hispaniola, comprising Haiti and the Dominican Republic, has been identified as a candidate for malaria elimination. However, incomplete surveillance data in Haiti hamper efforts to assess the impact of ongoing malaria control interventions. Characteristics of the genetic diversity of Plasmodium falciparum populations can be used to assess parasite transmission, which is information vital to ev...

genetic diversity is one of the three levels of biodiversity. the aim of present study was to compare levels of genetic polymorphism between wild bream populations using seven microsatellite loci. genetic diversity was investigated by studying samples collected from two regions, the coast of chamkhale and bandaranzali of gilan province. a total of seven microsatellite loci (mfw7, mfw26, mcs1eh,...

Assessment of genetic diversity and individual relationships in rice (Oryza sativa) germplasm collections seems to be necessary for future rice breeding program. In order to understand genetic relationships of 30 rice genotypes, nine morphological traits, seven physicochemical properties and twelve RAPD primers were used for study of 30 rice genotypes. Among morphological traits, numbe...

Rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, inflicts serious damage to global rice production. Due to high variability of this fungal pathogen, resistance of newly-released rice cultivars is easily broken down. To understand the population structure of M. oryzae, we analyzed the genetic diversity of the Korean population using multilocus microsatellite typing. Eleven microsatellite markers were appl...
