Seedless barberry (Berberis vulgaris L. var. asperma) is one of the few crops that is only cultivated in eastern parts of Iran. As a new crop there has not been any study to identify phylogenetic relationships of this plant with other related species existing in Iran. In this study, Amplification fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers based on four selected primer combinations (EcoRI/Tru1I...

Background: Congenital factor XIII (FXIII) deficiency is one of the rarest bleeding disorders with a prevalence of one per 2 million in the general population. The disorder is accompanied by a high rate of life-threatening bleeding. Due to normal results of routine coagulation tests, diagnosis of the disorder is challenging, but molecular methods can be used for precise diagnosis. Direct mutati...

Background: Root-knot nematodes are known to cause significant damage to eggplants. New approaches by green silver nanoparticles (GSN) are used to control plant-parasitic nematode to avoid chemical nematicide hazards.Objectives: Analyses of the incorporation of different concentrations of nanoparticles on two different algae (Ulva lactuca and Turbinaria turbinata) were carried out. Fureth...

world apricot (prunus armeniaca l.)  production is increasing steadily due to breeding of new high yielding cultivars in different countries. more recently, breeding programs have been modified according to consumers’ demands and also improvement in resistance to diseases (sharka, monilinia etc.), frost damages, and determination of self-(in) compatibility. in this study, fourteen apricot breed...

Rice, (Oryza sativa L. 2n=24) belongs to the family Gramineae and subfamily Oryzoideae. Oryza has two cultivated species: glaberrima. Breeding for good-quality traits requires selection of parents with a wider genetic diversity. Molecular markers are used in molecular biology biotechnology identify sequence DNA. have played an increasing role rice breeding cultivar improvement, screening, selec...

The progress made in DNA markers technology has been tremendous and exciting. DNA markers have provided valuable tools in various analysis ranging from polygenetic analysis to the positional cloning of genes. The development of high density molecular maps which has been facilitated by the PCR-based markers have made the mapping of almost any trait possible. The size and structure of the wheat g...
