seed protein profiles of 47 accessions belonging to eleven species and four tribes of grain legumes were studied, by extracting the total proteins from ten single seeds in each accession and performing sds-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. all eleven species were clearly recognizable from their protein banding patterns, but only phaseolus vulgaris expressed high intraspecific variations, ...

Twelve Aspergillus sp. strains producing glucose dehydrogenase were identified using ITS region sequencing. Based on the sequences obtained, the genomic relationship of the analyzed strains was investigated. Moreover, partial gdh gene sequences were determined and aligned. The amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) method was applied for genomic fingerprinting of twelve Aspergillus isola...

The status of a putative new species of Lepidosperma from the mountains of south-western Tasmania, Australia, was investigated. Phenetic analysis (Flexible UPGMA Agglomerative Hierarchical Fusion and semi-strong hybrid multidimensional scaling) was conducted on a database derived from morphological and anatomical characters scored from herbarium material, culm anatomy slides and scanning electr...

Phase 4: Hierarchical Clustering on Probability Graph  Similarity measure: puv values from 3 rd phase  Linkage Criterion: UPGMA Phase 3: Computing the Probabilities  Given an interaction graph, GI(V, E, W), and a group interaction graph, GGI(V, Eˊ, Wˊ), we construct a probability graph GP(V, EUEˊ, P), where each weight puv ε P represents probability between vertices u and v to belong in the ...

This paper reports a simulation study comparing and evaluating the performance of different linguistic phylogeny reconstruction methods on model datasets for which the true trees are known. UPGMA performed least well, then (in ascending order) neighbor joining, the method of Gray & Atkinson and finally maximum parsimony. Weighting characters greatly improves the accuracy of maximum parsimony an...

Genetic relationships among 20 elite wheat genotypes were studied using microsatellite markers and pedigree analysis. A total of 93 polymorphic bands were obtained with 25 microsatellite primer pairs. Coefficient of parentage (COP) values were calculated using parentage information at the expansion level of 5. The pedigree-based similarity (mean 0.115, range 0.00-0.53) was lower than the simila...
