We employed RAPD and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers to evaluate polymorphisms in 15 tomato (Solanum lycopersicon) genotypes that were obtained from a tomato breeding program. Four local tomato genotypes selected from the Sanliurfa province (Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey), 10 heat-tolerant tomato genotypes, received from the Asian Vegetable Research and Developme...

BACKGROUND As for human trichomoniasis the host-parasite relationship is very complex, and the broad ranges of clinical symptoms are unlikely be attributable to a single pathogenic mechanism. Specific Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers of 490 bp, 720 bp and 460 bp using the primers Tv-5, OPA-6 and OPA-11, respectively, were reported. This was the first description of possible genet...

Genetic diversity among ginger genotypes collected from different parts of the country was studied using molecular markers (30 RAPD and 55 SSR). Compared to primers SSR were efficient in distinguishing genotypes. A total 86 23 polymorphic bands observed with primers, respectively. Percentage polymorphism between 97.40 % 56.54 %. Grouping by combined data indicated that irrespective their place ...

Bulked segregant analysis was used to determine randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers in a specific interval in the middle of chromosome 6 of rice for tagging the photoperiod sensitivity gene. Two pools of F2 individuals (japonica cv. Nipponbare and indica cv. Kasalath) were constructed according to the genotypes of three restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers locat...

Isoenzyme and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to characterize the genetics of geographic variation among population samples of Ascaris suum from midwestern localities. Independent estimates of fixation indices (FST) based on isoenzyme and RAPD markers showed the same general patterns of differentiation and substantial statistical correlation (r = 0.70). Of the total es...

According to theory, F(2) hybrid breakdown (lethality or sterility) is due to incompatibilities between interacting genes of the different species (i.e., the breaking up of coadapted gene complexes). Detection of such incompatibilities is particularly straightforward in haplodiploid species, because virgin F(1) hybrid females will produce haploid recombinant F(2) males. This feature allows for ...
