Brycon is one of the main genera of Neotropical freshwater fish. In Brazil, Brycon species have been found in many hydrographic basins, such as the Amazon, Paraná, Paraguay, and Araguaia-Tocantins basins. We examined the phylogenetic relationships among the species Brycon orbignyanus, B. hilarii, B. cf. pesu, B. cephalus, B. falcatus, and B. gouldingi, using mitochondrial and nuclear molecular ...

There is a lack of information on the molecular characterization of Ocimum species and hence, efforts have been made under the present study to characterize 17 Ocimum genotypes belonging to 5 different species (O. basilicum, O. americanum, O. sanctum, O. gratissimum and O. Polystachyon) through random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers. PCR amplifi...

Crataegus spp. are used for horticultural and medicinal purposes. The medicinal importance of Crataegus is attributed to components such as flavonoids, procyanidin, aromatic acid, and cardiotonic amines. The genetic relationships among the five Iranian Crataegus species including C. aronia, C. pontica, C. meiery, C. monogyna, and C. pentagyna were assessed using inter simple sequence repeats (IS...

Broussonetia papyrifera is an important native tree species with high economic value in southwest China. Its resources are drastically reduced because of over-harvesting and habitat fragmentation. In this study, 17 natural populations of B. papyrifera were analyzed using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers to assess the genetic diversity and population structure. In total, 100 bands wer...

In this study 90 individuals of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) were developed by crossing subspecies of japonica rice cultivar, ‘Nagdong’ and an indica type cultivar, ‘Cheongcheong’. These individuals were used to identify the quantitative trait loci of panicle traits using SSR markers. A genetic linkage map was constructed using one hundred fifty four simple sequence repeat ...

Random amplified microsatellite polymorphism (RAMP) is a PCR-based marker which uses a combination of two classes of markers: Simple sequence repeat (SSR) and Random amplified DNA polymorphism (RAPD) markers. RAMP has been demonstrated to be a potentially valuable molecular marker for the study of genetic relationships in cultivated plant species. The objective of this study was to optimize the...

Species identification is fundamentally important within the fields of conservation, biology, biogeography and ecology. Salvia species are herbaceous, biennial or annual, strongly aromatic. Inter-Simple sequence repeats (ISSR) molecular markers were used for evaluate genetic diversity relationship analysis 30 species. Ten selected ISSR primers amplified 116 loci, respectively, which all polymor...

Molecular characterization of eleven clones of C. winterianus collected from eleven districts of West Bengal was carried out with 10 RAPD and 9 ISSR primers. The RAPD primers developed 81 robust loci, which revealed 74.07% polymorphism and 61 ISSR markers generated 47.50% polymorphism. Out of the different anchored primer combinations, ISSR primers with AG and GA motifs produced clear and maxim...
