The use of simple sequence repeats (SSRs), or microsatellites, as genetic markers has become popular due to their abundance and variation in length among individuals. In this study, we investigated linkage groups (LGs) in the woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca) and demonstrated variation in the abundances, densities, and relative densities of mononucleotide, dinucleotide, and trinucleotide rep...

Heat stress is an important abiotic factor that limits wheat production globally, including south-east Asia. The importance of micro (mi) RNAs in gene expression under various biotic and stresses well documented. Molecular markers, specifically simple sequence repeats (SSRs), play role the improvement breeding programs. Given miRNAs heat stress-induced transcriptional regulation acclimatization...

Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are highly polymorphic, codominant markers that have great value for the construction of genetic maps, comparative mapping, population genetic surveys, and paternity analyses. Here, we report the development and testing of a set of SSR markers derived from shotgun sequencing from Populus trichocarpa Torr. & A. Gray, a nonenriched genomic DNA lib...

Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are very effective molecular markers in population genetics, genome mapping, taxonomic study and other large-scale studies. Variation in number of tandem repeats within microsatellite refers to simple sequence length polymorphism (SSLP); but there are a few studies that are showed SSRs replication slippage may be occurred during in vitro amplifi...

Cultivated sugarcane genotypes (Saccharum spp.) are derived from complex interspecific hybridisations between the species S. spontaneum and S. officinarum. To analyse this complex genome, we have investigated the potential of sugarcane microsatellite sequences as genetic markers in terms of their abundance, variability and ability to detect polymorphisms. From an enriched sugarcane genornic DNA...

This study focused on the reliability and validity of the Columbia Suicide Severity Scale (C-SSRS). Severely delinquent adolescent girls (n = 166) participated in a treatment trial and repeated assessments over time. Lifetime suicide attempt history was measured using the C-SSRS in early adulthood (n = 144; 7-12 years postbaseline). Nonclinician raters showed strong interrater reliability using...

space subcode of a Reed-Solomon (SSRS) code Over GF(2"') is the set of RS codewords, whose components all lie in a particular GF(2)subspace of GF(2"). SSRS codes include both generalized B C H codes and "trace-shortened" Rs codes [2][3] as special casea. In this paper we present an explicit formula for t h e dimension of an arbitrary RS subspace subcode. Using this formula, we And that in many ...

Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), are common and widespread DNA elements in genomes of many organisms. However, their dynamics in genome evolution is unclear, whereby they are thought to evolve neutrally. More available genome sequences along with dated phylogenies allowed for studying the evolution of these repetitive DNA elements along evolutionary time scales. This could be...

The utility of microsatellites (SSRs) in reconstructing phylogenies is largely confined to studies below the genus level, due to the potential of homoplasy resulting from allele size range constraints and poor SSR transferability among divergent taxa. The eucalypt genus Corymbia has been shown to be monophyletic using morphological characters, however, analyses of intergenic spacer sequences ha...
