Chicken meat is a valuable source of protein and consumption of it continues to rise day to day. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the genetic homogeneity of Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) isolates obtained from chicken carcasses and human. Random Amplification of Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) PCR with three different primers were used to analyze the 31 L. monocytogenes isolates ...

| Poultry and poultry products are the most economical protein sources for the ever-increasing human population and to meet the future food security. While these are promising food sources, the importance of genetically improved avian species in the breeding programme has increased significantly. In this study, we applied randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) methodology to elucidate geneti...

Characterization of 43 strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovars viciae, trifolii, and phaseoli was performed by two methodologies based on PCR amplification, i.e., PCR DNA fingerprinting of interrepeat sequences and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of PCR -amplified chromosomal and symbiotic gene regions. Groupings generated by PCR DNA fingerprinting with either extrag...

In conventional DNA fingerprinting, hypervariable and repetitive sequences (minisatellite or microsatellite DNA) are detected with hybridization probes. As demonstrated here, these probes can be used as single primers in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to generate individual fingerprints. Several conventional DNA fingerprinting probes were used to prime the PCR, yielding distinctive, hyperv...

A differential pattern in the RAPD profile of Eucalyptus F1 natural hybrids FRI-4 (E. terticornis x E. camaldulensis), FRI-5 (E. camaldulensis X E. tereticornis) and controlled reciprocal crosses FRI-14 (E. torelliana X E. citriodora) along with their parental combinations was assessed through Polymerase Chain Reaction using commercially available primers. After electrophoresis of PCR product t...

meriones crassus, meriones persicus, and meriones libycus from different areas of khorasan provinces and yazd province were studied by use of random amplified dna polymorphism (rapd) technique. dna samples were analyzed by use of nine primers. genetic distance among samples varied between 0.24 and 0.78. dendrogram designed on the base of genetic distance shows separation of these species. in th...
