Inter- and intra-specific genetic diversity of Iranian yarrow species Achillea santolina and Achillea tenuifolia based on ISSR and RAPD markers
Authors: M. Ebrahimi M. Farajpour M. Rahimmalek
Cultivation and preservation of yarrow has recently attracted wide attention due to its beneficial properties; however, genetic variation of Achillea species is still relatively unknown. We used RAPD and ISSR markers to assess genetic diversity in 16 accessions of yarrow belonging to two species native to Iran. Seven ISSR and nine RAPD primers generated 1.. Read More»

Diversity and genetic stability in banana genotypes in a breeding program using inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers
Authors: A.V.C. Silva, A.L.S. Nascimento, M.F. Vit�?³ria, A.R.C. Rabbani, A.N.R. Soares and A.S. L�?©do
Banana (Musa spp) is a fruit species frequently cultivated and consumed worldwide. Molecular markers are important for estimating genetic diversity in germplasm and between genotypes in breeding programs. The objective of this study was to analyze the genetic diversity of 21 banana genotypes (FHIA 23, PA42-44, Maç&atild.. Read More»

Genetic relationships among five varieties of Curcuma alismatifolia (Zingiberaceae) based on ISSR markers
Authors: S. Taheri T.L. Abdullah N.A.P. Abdullah Z. Ahmad
The genus Curcuma is a member of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae) that has recently become popular for use as flowering pot plants, both indoors and as patio and landscape plants. We used PCR-based molecular markers (ISSRs) to assess genetic variation and relationships between five varieties of curcuma (Curcuma alismatifolia) cultivated in Malaysia. Sixteen.. Read More»

Characterization of Chinese eggplant isolates of the fungal pathogen Verticillium dahliae from different geographic origins
Authors: Z. Xu Z. Ali X. Hou H. Li J.X. Yi P.A. Abbasi
Verticillium dahliae is a fungal pathogen that causes wilt disease in a wide range of host plants. Characterization of virulence, morphological, and molecular variations among V. dahliae isolates from different geographic origins is essential for any breeding program aimed at producing plant cultivars resistant to this disease. We characterized virulence var.. Read More»

Genetic diversity analysis in Opal cotton hybrids based on SSR, ISSR, and RAPD markers
Authors: Z. Noormohammadi Y. Hasheminejad-Ahangarani Farahani M. Sheidai S. Ghasemzadeh-Baraki O. Alishah
Cotton is one of the most economically important crops in Iran; hybridization is a means to increase the genetic diversity and obtain new elite cultivars in this crop. We examined agronomic characteristics and molecular genetic diversity in the Opal cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) cultivar and in F2 progenies. Ten homo-primers and seven hetero-primers of 26 RAPD..

Distribution of mating-type alleles and M13 PCR markers in the black leaf spot fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensis of bananas in Brazil
Authors: C.B. Queiroz E.C. Miranda R.E. Hanada N.R. Sousa L. Gasparotto M.A. Soares G.F. Silva
The fungus Mycosphaerella fijiensis is the causative agent of black sigatoka, which is one of the most destructive diseases of banana plants. Infection with this pathogen results in underdeveloped fruit, with no commercial value. We analyzed the distribution of the M. fijiensis mating-type system and its genetic variability using M13 phage DNA markers. We fo.. Read More»
