ABSTRACT Isolates of Puccinia triticina collected from common wheat in the Central Asia countries of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan and the Caucasus countries of Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Armenia were tested for virulence to 20 isolines of Thatcher wheat with different leaf rust resistance genes and molecular genotype at 23 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci. After clone corre...

Background Eucalypts are the most widely planted hardwood trees in the world, occupying globally more than 18 million hectares, as an important source of carbon neutral renewable energy and raw material for pulp, paper and solid wood. Intensive planting programs of Eucalyptus grandis have been carried out in the Argentinian Mesopotamia. Linkage maps are useful tools for quantitative trait loci ...

Introduction Both B-mode ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) are well established procedures when diagnosing traumatic splenic ruptures (TSR). To date, there are no data about CEUS patterns in spontaneous splenic ruptures (SSR). It remains unknown whether TSR and SSR differ with respect to clinical characteristics, B-mode and CEUS characteristics. Patients and Methods Between 1...

In this paper we study some standard problems of SSR (Secondary Surveillance Radar), relating to improving the detection performance of the conventional SSR and Mode S replies in SSR FRUIT environment. We present the algorithm that consists of a conventional two-dimensional CFAR BI processor combined with the estimator of the FRUIT parameters, which is necessary for automatic selecting of the a...

Sparse support recovery (SSR) is an important part of the compressive sensing (CS). Most of the current SSR methods are with the full information measurements. But in practice the amplitude part of the measurements may be seriously destroyed. The corrupted measurements mismatch the current SSR algorithms, which leads to serious performance degeneration. This paper considers the problem of SSR w...

Segregating F4 families from the cross between drought sensitive (Yecora Rojo) and drought tolerant (Pavon 76) genotypes were made to identify SSR markers linked to leaf chlorophyll content, flag leaf senescence and cell membrane stability traits in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under water-stressed condition and to map quantitative trait locus (QTL) for the three physiological traits. The paren...

Development of informative polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers at a genome-wide scale is essential for efficient large-scale genotyping applications. We identified genome-wide 1835 SSRs showing polymorphism between desi and kabuli chickpea. A total of 1470 polymorphic SSR markers from diverse coding and non-coding regions of the chickpea genome were developed. These physically mapp...

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) were isolated from pearl millet bacterial artificial clones (BACs) without any subcloning steps. SSR sequences were targeted using 3' end-anchored SSR primers. Flanking sequences were isolated by suppression PCR. In this pilot study, 25 SSR markers have been developed from 40 BAC pools, comprising a total of 384 clones. This novel way to develop new markers has th...

A (GA) n and (GT) n microsatellite-enriched library was constructed and 23 nuclear simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were characterized in the guava species ( Psidium guajava L.). All SSR loci were found to be polymorphic after screening for diversity in different cultivars, and across-taxa amplification tests showed the potential transferability of most SSR markers in three other Psidium speci...
