To assess the genetic diversity among four canola cultivars (namely, Serw-3, Serw-4, Misser L-16 and Semu 249), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), simple sequence repeat polymorphism (SSR) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analyses were performed. The data indicated that all of the three molecular markers gave different levels of polymorphism. A total of 118, 31 and 338 ma...

The Honey bee is an important model animal for behavioral study as it is a colonial insect with complex social behavior. Many studies have characterized its fascinating behavioral repatriate, but little is known about the genetic basis of its behavior because of difficulties in maintaining selected stocks and the scarify of genetic markers. However, it is now possible to construct detailed link...

Jinten hitam ( Nigella sativa ) is one of the medicinal plants in family Ranunculaceae, native to Mediterranean region and several regions Asia. The seed widely cultivated, distributed, used pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food industries. Due similar morphology its potential adulterant such as Corchorus spp., N. seeds are susceptible adulteration substitution markets. Molecular markers have become...

Mutations or duplications in MECP2 cause Rett and Rett-like syndromes, neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by mental retardation, motor dysfunction, and autistic behaviors. MeCP2 is expressed in many mammalian tissues and functions as a global repressor of transcription; however, the molecular mechanisms by which MeCP2 dysfunction leads to the neural-specific phenotypes of RTT remain poo...

Fifteen serotypes of E. coli isolated from poultry were subjected to RAPD-PCR using eight oligonucleotide random primers. Amplification with each of the primers resulted in generation of different DNA fingerprinting profile with varied number of bands. Dendrogram based generation of clustering of E. coli serotypes showed two major clusters. The polymorphic amplicons served as markers for E. col...

Research to determine patterns of genetic differentiation among and within field populations of Crom.um quercuum f. sp.firsifome using RAPD markers is currently underway in the molecular genetics laboratory at the Southern Institute of Forest Genetics. Fungal tissue was collected as a drop of spermatia or scrapings of a discrete hymenium fiom a single gall on each tree sampled at a location. Co...

this study was performed for assessment of correlation of 11 morphological traits with rapd molecular markers in 15 cultivars of date palm collected from the south and south west of iran as population analysis by stepwise regression method. the results of simple and multiple regressions showed that in sum 84 rapd markers had significant association with at least one of the traits. the coefficie...

Curcuma wenyujin is an important multifunctional medicinal herb in China. Currently, populations of C. wenyujin are decreasing, and wild individuals have almost disappeared from their natural habitats. Moreover, little is known regarding the molecular characteristics of this plant. In this study, we investigated the genetic diversity and variation of five populations of C. wenyujin, using ran-d...

Using PEG-mediated protoplast fusion, a total of nine pfle somatic hybrids were developed between Pleurotus florida and Lentinula edodes. Only six could fruit bodies the second generation was made each through tissue culture isolate from their bodies. The first denoted as pfle1p, pfle1q, pfle1v, 1s, pfle1o pfle1pFB, pfle1qFB, pfle1vFB, 1sFB, pfle1oFB. genetic closeness, stability variance is an...
