linseed is an important oilseed and fibre crop predominantly grown in india. the aim of the present research was to evaluate genetic diversity and patterns of relationships among the 58 genotypes through 10 morphological traits and 12 polymorphic microsatellite (ssr) markers. euclidean analysis of agro-morphological traits grouped the 58 genotypes into four clusters of which cluster i was the l...

Twenty-four polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized for Liza affinis using a (GT)13-enriched genomic library. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 3 to 9, with a mean number of 6.250. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.417 to 1.000 and from 0.550 to 0.861, with an average of 0.859 and 0.779, respectively. Deviation from Hardy-Weinberg proport...

The interaction between the Plasmodium vivax merozoite Duffy binding protein region II (DBPII) and the human erythrocyte Duffy antigen leads to infection. Highly polymorphic regions of this protein may have arisen as a mechanism to avoid host immunity. To examine whether immunity to P. vivax is directed against these polymorphic regions of DBPII, age-associated changes in the frequency of speci...

six highly variable microsatellite loci were used to investigate the genetic diversity and population structure of the garra rufa in kermanshah and bushehr provinces, iran. all of the 6 microsatellite loci screened in this study showed polymorphism. a total of 90 individual fish from 3 populations were genotyped and 60 alleles were observed in all loci. the number of alleles per locus ranged fr...

Iranian bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) is an endangered livestock breed with distribution in northwest of Iran. Microsatellites are a powerful marker for animal genetic and cell line identification and population genetic study. In this study, after producing more than 40 Camelus bactrianus fibroblast cell lines, microsatellites loci from the genome of Iranian Camelus bactrianus cell lines ...
