abstract         background and objective: paratuberculosis has been repeatedly reported from iranian ruminant herds. the extrem fastidious nature of mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculsos hinders genomic diversity studies of the pathogen. short sequence repeat analysis is one of the genome-based approches recently developed to overcome this difficulty. in this study we describe the app...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the Bali cattle genetic diversity and hybrid cattle using microsatellite markers. Blood samples (n=192) were collected from various cattle breed, i.e. Bali (n=96), Madura (n=48), and Peranakan Ongole (PO) Kebumen (n=48). The microsatellite locus used for assessing the genetic variation was INRA035, ILSTS006, ETH225, and HEL9, while the genetic profile was d...

mahi sefid (cyprinidae) is an economically important fish in the south caspian sea. specimens was collected from the lamir river, sefid rud, shir rud and tajan rivers and analyzed at 38 microsatellite dna loci. eight primers out of the thirty analyzed loci were polymorphic in all sampling regions. the highest observed heterozygosity (1) was in locus ca1 in sefid rud and lowest was 0.07 in locus...

the genetic diversity among 56 almond (prunus dulcis) genotypes was analysed using 35 microsatellite markers and 14 morphological traits. analysis of morphological traits revealed a wide range of variation among the studied genotypes. out of 35 simple sequence repeats (ssrs) markers, 25 were polymorphic, producing 215 alleles that varied from 2 to 16 with an average of 8.76 alleles per locus. r...

In this study, morphological characteristics as well as ten of Simple Sequence Repeat (SSRs) loci were used to analyze the genetic diversity and relationships among 12 natural populations of Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) in northern and western regions of Iran. The results showed that there was a high level of genetic diversity among the walnuts, both in terms of their SSRs loci as well as ...

Background: Potato has a narrow genetic base which is due to its development, as it takes its genetic root from a few genotypes originated from South America. Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the genetic relationships among potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) genotypes originated from different geographical regions.Materials and Methods: This study has rendered 25 use...

Narrow genetic variability may lead to genetic vulnerability of field crops against biotic and abiotic stresses which can cause yield reduction. In this study a set of 37 wheat microsatellite markers linked with identified QTLs for salinity tolerance were used for the assessment of genetic diversity for salinity in 30 promising lines of hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). A total of 4...
