Pathogenicity, Internal Transcribed Spacer-rDNA Variation, and Human Dispersal of Ceratocystis fimbriata on the Family Araceae.
ABSTRACT Ceratocystis fimbriata is a complex of many cryptic, host-specialized species that causes wilt and canker of woody species and rot diseases of storage roots and corms of many economically important plants worldwide. With the exception of the family Araceae, all confirmed hosts of C. fimbriata are dicotyledonous plants. We hypothesized that the isolates from members of the family Aracea...
متن کاملIntraspecific Variation in Commiphora wightii Populations Based on Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) Sequences of rDNA
Commiphora wightii is an endangered, endemic species found in the Thar Desert of Rajasthan, India and adjoining areas of Pakistan. The populations of this plant are rapidly dwindling due to overexploitation for their medicinally important resin. Analysis of nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer of rDNAs revealed low genetic diversity ( = 0.03905; w = 0.05418) and high popula...
متن کاملIntra-specific heterogeneity of the rDNA internal transcribed spacer in the Simulium damnosum (Diptera: Simuliidae) complex.
The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of the rRNA gene cluster has been used as a model for the study of the action of concerted evolution and molecular drive on repeated sequence families. In contrast to this general finding, preliminary DNA sequence analysis of cloned representatives of the ITS from the West African black fly species complex Simulium damnosum s.1. demonstrated extensive intra...
متن کاملTranscription of the 'non-transcribed' spacer of Drosophila melanogaster rDNA
We have detected a set of transcripts in Drosophila melanogaster cells which are homologous to repeating elements within the 'non-transcribed' spacer region of rDNA. The RNA molecules range from 240 to 1680 nucleotides, differing in length by an integral value of 240 nucleotides. We have sequenced several AluI fragments which characterise the main 240 nucleotide repeating element. We find that ...
متن کاملThe rDNA Internal Transcribed Spacer Region as a Taxonomic Marker for Nematodes1
The ITS region from a wide taxonomic range of nematodes, including secernentean and adenophorean taxa, and free-living, entomopathogenic, and plant-parasitic species, was evaluated as a taxonomic marker. Size of the amplified product aided in the initial determination of group membership, and also suggested groups that may require taxonomic reevaluation. Congeneric species often displayed ident...
