In this study, inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) and sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) were applied to assess the genetic diversity in 38 species of Chrysanthemum and related genera. A total of 204 and 567 bands were amplified by 24 ISSR and 25 SRAP primers, of which 196 (97%) and 557 (99%) were polymorphic, respectively. The ISSR-based genetic similarity ranged from 0.016 to 0...

The genus Harpagophytum has two species: H. procumbens which is an important medicinal plant in southern Africa, and H. zeyheri. Genetic diversity in 96 samples, obtained by germinating seeds collected from Botswana, was assessed using six inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and 10 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers. These DNA markers yielded a total of 138 polymorphic bands. Polym...

inter simple sequence repeat (issr) markers were used to assess the genetic diversity among 23 outcross and self pollinated populations of fennel collected from different geographical regions of iran and some european countries. the experiment was carried out to determine the effect of self-pollination on morphological traits and genetic diversity in the next generation. fifteen primers produce...

Premise of the study Microsatellite primers were developed for Primula ovalifolia, a member of Primula section Petiolares (Primulaceae), to study the population genetics and species delimitation in this section. Methods and Results A total of 4753 markers were successfully designated from 5139 putative simple sequence repeat loci. We isolated 38 expressed sequence tag-simple sequence repeat m...

A total of 100 Sporisorium scitamineum isolates were investigated by inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and single primer-sequence related amplified polymorphism (SP-SRAP) markers. These isolates were clearly assorted into three distinct clusters regardless of method used: either cluster analysis or by principal component analysis (PCA) of the ISSR, SP-SRAP, or ISSR + SP-SRAP data set. The tot...

the genetic diversity of 40 tobacco (nicotiana tabacum l.) cultivars was analyzed using 12 issr primers. thecultivars were evaluated for 14 traits using a simple lattice design (7×7) with two replications. of 149 amplified bands, 142 (95.3%) were polymorphic. maximum and minimum bands were generated by primers ubc825 (17 bands and 94.11% polymorphic) and ubc824 (7 bands and 100% polymorphic), r...

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorious L.) is an oilseed crop that is valued as a source of high quality vegetable oil. The genetic diversity of 16 safflower genotypes originated from different geographical regions of Iran and some with exotic origin were evaluated. Eight different seed quality-related traits including fatty acid composition of seed oil (stearic acid, palmitic acid, oleic acid and li...

Hypericum L. species are generally known locally in Iran with the names “Hofariqun” which Ebn Sina (or Bo Ali Sina) called it. Plants of genus have traditionally been used as medicinal plants various parts world. perforatum is source to one most manufactured and herbal preparations recent years, especially a mild antidepressant. Therefore, due importance these plant species, we performed molecu...

objective: the aim of this study was to estimate genetic variability and phonetic relationships of 50 isolates of p. sojae from iran. methods: during 2005–2007, 142 isolates of phytophthora sojae were collected from soil samples and diseased soybean plants from lorestan, mazandaran, golestan and ardabil provinces. races of the isolates were determined. dna of p. sojae fifty isolates was amplifi...
