In order to increase the fiber productivity in cotton, it is imperative genetically improve component traits and such effort can be quickened by use of molecular markers. Totally, seventy-four simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers that were previously shown linked fibre strength, boll weight, elongation used differentiate Gossypium hirsutum var. MCU5 TCH1218 among them two found polymorphic Thes...

The CEREALAB database aims to store genotypic and phenotypic data obtained by the CEREALAB project and to integrate them with already existing data sources in order to create a tool for plant breeders and geneticists. The database can help them in unravelling the genetics of economically important phenotypic traits; in identifying and choosing molecular markers associated to key traits; and in ...

Phenotypic characterization has been recognized as very important for the identification and selection of promising lines in improvement programs. This study aimed at characterizing selecting early-maturing high-yielding African yam bean (AYB) mutant M2 generation. The experiment was carried out experimental field Institute Agricultural Research Training, Nigeria. design used a randomized compl...

BACKGROUND Meningiomas are common intracranial tumors. Recently, histogenetic and phenotypic similarities between meningiomas and mesotheliomas have been proposed. We were interested in whether these similarities are reflected on the immunohistochemical level, which would add new potentially diagnostic markers for meningiomas. METHODS The expression of mesothelioma-related markers (D2-40, Cal...

Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) possess a high differentiation and proliferation potential. However, the phenotypic characterization of ASCs is still difficult. Until now, there is no extensive analysis of ASCs markers depending on different liposuction methods. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to analyse 242 surface markers and determine the differences in the phenotypic pattern b...

Among 120 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, 23 polymorphic markers were used to identify the segregation ratio in 320 individuals of an F(2) rice population derived from Pongsu Seribu 2, a resistant variety, and Mahsuri, a susceptible rice cultivar. For phenotypic study, the most virulent blast (Magnaporthe oryzae) pathotype, P7.2, was used in screening of F(2) population in order to unders...

Association mapping is an efficient method to test the association between molecular markers and quantitative trait loci (QTL) based on linkage disequilibrium (LD). In this study, 13 agronomic traits of 109 wheat accessions were evaluated at Tai'an of China in 2006-2010. Genetic diversity, population structure, and LD were investigated using Diversity Array Technology (DArT) markers. The extent...

The impact of biotechnology on mango enhancement, particularly through genetic engineering and molecular markers, has been significant. Biotechnology revolutionized the field agriculture, offering innovative tools techniques for improving crop traits. In case mangoes, involves manipulation organism's DNA to introduce or modify specific genes, targeting traits such as disease resistance, fruit q...
