Authors: M.F. Arrigoni-Blank, M.S. Santos, A.F. Blank, A.R.C. Rabbani, R. Silva-Mann, J.B. Santos, A.S. Costa and T.S.A. Menezes
The Orchidaceae represent one of the largest and most diverse families on the planet. However, this family is constantly threatened by predators and by the advancement of urban centers over its natural habitats. The objective of this study was to use inter-simple sequence repeat markers to evaluate the genetic diversity betwee.. Read More»

Development and characterization of microsatellite loci for genetic studies of the sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)
Authors: V.A.C. Pavinato, K.L. Silva-Brand�£o, M. Monteiro, M.I. Zucchi, J.B. Pinheiro, F.L.F. Dias and C. Omoto
We present polymorphic microsatellite markers isolated for genetic studies of the sugarcane borer, Diatraea saccharalis (Fabricius). We isolated 16 microsatellite loci through an enriched genomic library protocol. After characterization, 12 markers showed polymorphic information expressed in the observed number of alleles (ranging from 2 to 7; 5 on averag.. Read More»

Genetic diversity in wild sweet cherries (Prunus avium) in Turkey revealed by SSR markers
Authors: S. Ercisli, G. Agar, N. Yildirim, B. Duralija, A. Vokurka and H. Karlidag
Wild sweet cherry (Prunus avium) trees are abundant in the northern part of Turkey, including the Coruh Valley. We analyzed 18 wild sweet cherry genotypes collected from diverse environments in the upper Coruh Valley in Turkey to determine genetic variation, using 10 SSR primers. These SSR primers generated 46 alleles; the num.. Read More»

Genetic diversity of rhg1 and Rhg4 loci in wild soybeans resistant to soybean cyst nematode race 3
Authors: C.P. Yuan, Y.J. Wang, H.K. Zhao, L. Zhang, Y.M. Wang, X.D. Liu, X.F. Zhong and Y.S. Dong
Over-utilization of germplasms that are resistant to the soybean cyst nematode (SCN) in soybean breeding programs can lead to genetic vulnerability in resistant cultivars. Resistant wild soybean (Glycine soja) is considered an invaluable gene source for increasing the genetic diversity of SCN resistance. In this study, we geno.. Read More»

Mating system patterns of natural populations of Pinus koraiensis along its post-glacial colonization route in northeastern China
Authors: X. Sui,F.J. Feng,D. Zhao,M. Xing,X.Y. Sun,S.J. Han and M.H. Li
To understand the genetic mechanisms underlying the endangerment of Pinus koraiensis, we studied the mating system of 49 families of this species in 3 natural populations along its post-glacial colonization route across ~1500 km in northeastern China using the chloroplast simple sequence repeat technique. We analyzed 11 polymorphic loci with clear and rep.. Read More»

Genetic variation of Casuarina equisetifolia subsp equisetifolia and C. equisetifolia subsp incana populations on the northern coast of Senegal
Authors: A.L. Ndoye, O. Sadio and D. Diouf
The genetic variation of 70 individual samples of Casuarina equisetifolia (L. Johnson) subsp equisetifolia and C. equisetifolia subsp incana growing along the northern coast of Senegal was analyzed with RAPD markers. Of the 160 primers tested, five were chosen; they generated 1396 reproducible bands and 61 polymorphic bands th.. Read More»

Simple sequence repeat-based analysis of the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of populations of Siniperca chuatsi
Authors: C.F. Sun, X. Ye, Y.Y. Tian and J.J. Dong
In order to provide genetic information for the selective breeding of Siniperca chuatsi, 14 microsatellite DNA loci were used to evaluate the genetic diversity and structure of four farmed populations and one wild population in China. The four cultivated populations were Foshan (FS), Jiangmen (JM), Nanjing (NJ), and Hongze Lake (HZL), and the wild populat.. Read More»

Population genetic structure of Myzus persicae nicotianae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in China by microsatellite analysis
Authors: C. Zhao, X.M. Yang, S.H. Tang, P.J. Xu, W.J. Bian, X.F. Wang, X.W. Wang and G.W. Ren
The tobacco aphid, Myzus persicae nicotianae (Hemiptera: Aphididae), is an important agricultural pest that feeds on host plants and transmits plant viruses in China. To effectively control this pest, we investigated the genetic variation and genetic structure of 54 populations of tobacco aphids collected in China, using five microsatellite loci. An avera..

Genetic diversity and differentiation in Dalbergia sissoo (Fabaceae) as revealed by RAPD
Authors: B.-Y. Wang, L. Shi, Z.-Y. Ruan and J. Deng
Dalbergia sissoo, a wind-dispersed tropical tree, is one of the most preferred timber tree species of South Asia. Genetic diversity and differentiation among natural populations of D. sissoo were examined for the first time. We found a relatively high level of genetic diversity in D. sissoo, both at the species level (percenta.. Read More»
