in the present study, genotyping of six short tandem repeat (str) loci including csf1po, d16s539, f13a01, f13b, lpl and hprtb was performed on genomic dna from 127 unrelated individuals from the iranian province of isfahan. the results indicated that the allele and genotype distributions were in accordance with hardy-weinberg expectations. the observed heterozygosity (ho), expected heterozygosi...

robust information of genetic diversity among bt cotton genotypes is still lacking and availability of several marker systems has prompted us to compare their utility for the detection of genetic diversity. here, we report the comparative efficiency of morphological and molecular markers (est-ssrs and issrs) in determining the genetic diversity among 30 pakistani bt cotton genotypes. three diff...

pistacia atlantica subsp. mutica is one of the most valuable forest tree species in iran that has been severely exploited for a long time. therefore, understanding the genetic diversity of different populations can be an important step towards the development and restoration of the habitat of this invaluable tree species. in this study, in order to study the genetic diversity, 10 populations in...

The melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) gene has been investigated by many studies regarding the pigmentation variation in various species. In order to determine its allelic and genotypic distribution, we sequenced the goat MC1R gene from 78 individuals in ten populations (Gembrong, Senduro, Ettawa Grade, Boerawa, Boerka, Kosta, Samosir, Muara, Boer and Kacang). Direct sequencing m...

Growth hormone (GH) has an effect on a broad variety of physiological parameters such as lactation, reproduction, growth and metabolism. Thus, the aim of this study was to detect GH gene polymorphism and its association with breeding values of production and reproduction traits in Raini Cashmere goat. Breeding values were estimated using records on 26731 Raini Cashmere goats. To study GH gene p...

The main objective of this study was to assess genetic comparison of two migratory forms of Caspian trout Salmo trutta caspius namely fall-run and spring-run. Owing to the lack of information on its genetic differences, 5 microsatellite loci were used for 58 sample analyses. Genomic DNA was extracted from caudal fin using Roche DNA extraction kit and each PCR reaction was performed in a 25 ?l ...

this study compares diversity patterns of five microsatellite (ssr) markers in two iranian native horse populations (turkoman sahra and turkoman jergelan) to infer relationships between them and to compare levels of their polymorphism for use in conservation efforts. two populations across microsatellite loci had significant deviations from hardy-weinberg equilibrium. average number of alleles ...

the polymorphism in exon three of fabp4 gene and its association with growth traits of 45 sistani (n=30) and dashtiari (n=15) cattle were investigated. dna extraction from the whole blood was performed and its quality was determined by electrophoresis of one percent agarose gel. animal genotypes were determined based on polymerase chain reaction (pcr) products and their band size electrophorese...
