In this study, we compared the efficiency of simple sequence repeat (SSR) and sequence specific amplified polymorphism (SSAP) markers for analyzing genetic diversity, genetic relationships, and population structure of 87 super sweet corn inbred lines from different origins. SSR markers showed higher average gene diversity and Shannon's information index than SSAP markers. To assess genetic rela...

A genetic marker is a gene or DNA sequence with known localization on a chromosome. It can be de-scribed as a variation that can be measured or detected by a suitable method, and can be used subsequently to detect the presence of a specific genotype. Such variations occurring at chromosomal or DNA level can serve as genetic markers. The progress in development of molecular markers suggests thei...

in order to study the genetic diversity among 35 accessions of ae. triuncialis l. from17 ssr loci of 56 primer pairs originated from a and d genomes of bread wheat were used. seventy one fragments amplified totally and 68 of them were polymorph between genotypes. allele number ranged from 1 to 8 with average 4.18 per locus. pic value of markers was from 0.593 (xgwm-30-2d, xgwm-383-3d, xgwm-654-...

Several molecular marks have been used for various purposes since the beginning of contemporary technology: Genetic resource characterization, core genetic collection, mapping, marker-assisted selection, and back crossing etc. The variety all plant species, their make-up, environments in which they dwell are considered to be components biological diversity. Plant classification identification c...
