in the present study, random amplified polymorphic dna (rapd) and inter-simple sequence repeat (issr) markers were used to estimate genetic diversity and relationships among 35 cluster bean [cyamopsis tetragonoloba (l.) taub] genotypes. for rapd analysis, 20 random primers were used which amplified 164 bands, 147 of which were polymorphic with an average polymorphism of 90.3%. the amplified pro...

Genetic diversity of 12 lemon balm ecotypes was evaluated using agronomic traits as well as ISSR and RAPD markers. Results of analysis of variance showed high diversity among the studied ecotypes. Cluster analysis using UPGMA method grouped the ecotypes into three different groups based on the agronomic traits. Twelve ISSR primers created 106 polymorphic bands among the studied ecotypes. An ISS...

To test the hypothesis that the H-2 polymorphism is adaptive, the degree of polymorphism of loci linked to the H-2 complex on chromosome 17 of the house mouse was compared to the degree of polymorphism of loci located on other chromosomes. Published theoretical analyses show that polymorphisms subject to natural selection usually reduce the polymorphism of linked neutral loci. The first test of...

linseed is an important oilseed and fibre crop predominantly grown in india. the aim of the present research was to evaluate genetic diversity and patterns of relationships among the 58 genotypes through 10 morphological traits and 12 polymorphic microsatellite (ssr) markers. euclidean analysis of agro-morphological traits grouped the 58 genotypes into four clusters of which cluster i was the l...

abstract as hybrid spawn is propagated asexually in edible mushrooms, producers may propagate it without the permission of the owner. for the protection of the owner right, there is a great need for a molecular certificate for each commercial line. the high-resolution genotyping method of amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) analysis was used to prepare molecular certifications and fin...

DNA fingerprinting has become an important tool for diversity assessment and varietal identification in plant breeding programs. Semi- random PCR primers targeting intron-exon splice junctions (ISJ) were used to evaluate the potential of these markers in identification and classification of rice genotypes. A total of 12 ISJ primers were used for screening fourteen Egyptian rice genotypes, inclu...
